About
The Agents API lets developers build and run cloud agents with the same harness and infrastructure that powers Codex, fully managed by OpenAI. A production-ready agent can be created with a single API call by specifying the task, model, tools, and environment, while OpenAI hosts and maintains the agent harness. Developers can choose where agents run: in an OpenAI-hosted sandbox, on their own infrastructure, or through supported sandbox partners. OpenAI-hosted sandboxes provide secure environments where agents can run code, work with files, use packages, skills, and plugins, and produce artifacts. The API is designed for long-running work, with automatic context compaction that preserves relevant information as sessions span multiple context windows. Tool search loads relevant tool definitions only when needed, while programmatic tool calling lets agents run calls in parallel, chain related operations, and filter or combine results in code.

About
boat provides powerful cloud virtual machines and persistent sandboxes built for long-running AI agents, allowing users to spawn thousands of cloud computers with browsers and persistent files without managing the entire infrastructure themselves. Each sandbox is a full Ubuntu Linux virtual machine with SSH and SCP access, Docker support, dedicated IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, a 60 fps virtual desktop, and fast disk-level forking from snapshots. Docker, VS Code, Chrome, Ghostty, GitHub CLI, Rust, Node.js, and Bun come pre-installed, enabling users to run any development tool, language, or workflow. Boat supports agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, with tools to prompt, observe, and control agent environments remotely through its CLI, HTTP API, and Python or TypeScript SDKs. Users can execute commands, copy files, monitor agent messages and tool calls, host applications through public HTTPS URLs, and access integrated desktops and browsers.
