Run multiple isolated agents in a single Sandbox

Vercel's @vercel/sandbox SDK now supports multiple Linux users and groups, enabling developers to run isolated agents side by side in a single Sandbox with private home directories and optional shared workspaces via createGroup. Each agent runs as its own user, preventing cross-user file access, simplifying multi-agent system development.

The @vercel/sandbox

SDK now supports multiple Linux users and groups, so you can run agents side by side in a single Sandbox.

Each agent runs as its own user with a private home directory. A group opens a shared workspace when they need to collaborate. This makes multi-agent systems easier to build.

Call createUser

for each agent; its commands and file operations run as that user, and users can't read, write, or list each other's files. To set up a shared directory, call createGroup and add users to it.
