description: >-
  Daytona is open-source, secure, and elastic infrastructure for running AI-generated code. Daytona sandboxes spin up in
  under 90 milliseconds and provide isolated Linux, Windows, and macOS environments where autonomous agents and
  developer workflows can execute untrusted code, perform file system and Git operations, run language servers, drive
  virtual desktops, and persist state via snapshots and volumes. The platform exposes a control-plane REST API
  (sandboxes, snapshots, volumes, organizations, runners, webhooks) and an in-sandbox Toolbox API (file system, Git,
  LSP, process execution, PTY, computer use, interpreter), with official SDKs for TypeScript, Python, Ruby, Go, and
  Java, plus a Go CLI and Homebrew/Windows installers.

      Create, start, stop, archive, resize, and destroy isolated sandboxes that boot in under 90 milliseconds. The
      Sandbox API manages the full sandbox lifecycle, exposes labels and metadata, and provides operations for network
      access, backups, auto-stop / auto-archive policies, and SSH access keys. The legacy /workspace namespace is
      included as an alias of /sandbox for backwards compatibility.
