Sandstorm is an open-source project that wraps a powerful Claude-based AI agent within a completely sandboxed, ephemeral API service designed to make agentic AI workflows easy to deploy and scale without infrastructure complexity. The core idea is to provide “one API call” access to a robust Claude agent loop that runs inside a secure sandbox, so you can upload files, connect tools, and run long-running tasks — all managed behind a simple REST-style interface that disappears when the work is done. This approach lowers the friction of building autonomous agents by removing the need to provision servers, orchestrate distributed agents, or manage persistent tooling; agents can be spun up in parallel without manual setup and shut down when complete. The sandbox environment isolates agent execution for security and predictability, and project updates continue to harden observability, fault handling, and configuration validation.
