  • Run multimodal generation tasks (e.g., image generation) with `sandbase run`
  • Streaming LLM chat with `sandbase chat`
  • Manage agents, sessions, environments, and skills via CLI commands
  • MCP bridge for configuring coding agents like Codex and Claude
✓ Best For

Developers and teams building AI agents who want a unified CLI to manage model calls, sandboxes, sessions, and MCP tools across multiple coding agents.

✗ Not Ideal For

Users who prefer a fully graphical interface or who need a completely offline tool, as the CLI relies on the hosted SandBase platform for model access and requires an API key.

Open Source

The SandBase CLI itself is open-source under the Apache-2.0 license (the Go module shows MIT license, but the repository is Apache-2.0). The underlying SandBase platform uses a pay-as-you-go credit system where 1 credit = $1 USD, with no monthly subscription and credits that never expire. Users purchase credits in amounts from $5 to $100 or custom via Stripe.

SandBase CLI is a powerful open-source tool for developers integrating with the SandBase platform, offering extensive model access and agent management. However, it is tightly coupled to the hosted service, so it may not suit those seeking a fully self-hosted or offline solution.
