Sandbox Integration Summary

Issue: #100 - Integrate Sandbox Provisioning Status: ✅ Complete Date: October 26, 2025 Priority: P2

Overview

Successfully implemented comprehensive sandbox provisioning integration for the MonoTask agent execution system. The implementation provides isolated execution environments, resource management, automated cleanup, and real-time monitoring for all AI agent executions.

Implementation Completed

1. Execution Environment Wrapper ✅

File: /packages/cloudflare-workers/agent-worker/src/sandbox/execution-env.tsLines of Code: 418 Purpose: Provides resource-limited, isolated execution environments for agents

Key Features:

• ✅ Resource limit configuration per agent type
• ✅ Sandbox isolation wrapper with security context
• ✅ Environment variable injection
• ✅ Security context setup (network access, allowed domains)
• ✅ Stdout/stderr capture for debugging
• ✅ Timeout enforcement with automatic termination
• ✅ Resource usage tracking (CPU, memory, network, storage)

Default Resource Limits:

Agent Type	Memory	CPU Time	Execution Time	Network Requests
ELICITATION	256 MB	30s	5 min	10
TEST_WRITER	512 MB	60s	10 min	20
IMPLEMENTATION	1024 MB	120s	15 min	50
CONTEXT_GATHERING	256 MB	30s	5 min	30
VALIDATION	512 MB	60s	10 min	20

2. Sandbox Integration Service ✅

File: /packages/cloudflare-workers/agent-worker/src/sandbox/integration.tsLines of Code: 481 Purpose: Manages sandbox lifecycle and binds sandboxes to agent executions

Key Features:

• ✅ Automatic sandbox provisioning helper
• ✅ Agent-to-sandbox binding with execution environment
• ✅ Log streaming integration to Durable Object
• ✅ Cleanup scheduler integration
• ✅ Failure recovery logic with exponential backoff
• ✅ Sandbox pooling support (infrastructure ready)

Core Functions:

• provisionSandbox() - Creates and initializes sandbox
• waitForReady() - Waits for sandbox to be ready with timeout
• executeInSandbox() - Wraps execution in sandbox context
• completeSandbox() - Marks sandbox as successfully completed
• failSandbox() - Handles sandbox failures
• withSandboxRecovery() - Provides retry logic with recovery

3. Agent Execution Flow Integration ✅

File: /packages/cloudflare-workers/agent-worker/src/index.tsModified: Yes Purpose: Integrates sandbox provisioning into main agent execution flow

Changes Made:

1. ✅ Added sandbox service imports
2. ✅ Added sandbox provisioning before agent execution
3. ✅ Wrapped agent execution in sandbox context with recovery
4. ✅ Captured and stored sandbox logs in R2
5. ✅ Handled sandbox timeout failures gracefully
6. ✅ Triggered cleanup on completion
7. ✅ Added sandbox metrics to agent execution response
8. ✅ Added health and metrics endpoints (/api/sandbox/health, /api/sandbox/metrics)

New Endpoints:

Integration Points

1. Agent Worker Integration

The sandbox system is fully integrated into /packages/cloudflare-workers/agent-worker/src/index.ts:

// Automatic sandbox provisioning
const sandboxService = new SandboxIntegrationService(env);
const binding = await sandboxService.provisionSandbox({ taskId, agentType });

// Execution in isolated sandbox
const result = await withSandboxRecovery(
  sandboxService,
  binding.sandboxId,
  async () => {
    return await sandboxService.executeInSandbox(binding.sandboxId, async () => {
      // Agent execution with Claude API
    });
  },
  { maxRetries: 3 }
);

// Resource tracking
const resourceUsage = await sandboxService.getResourceUsage(binding.sandboxId);
monitoringService.trackResourceUsage(resourceUsage);

// Cleanup scheduling
if (cleanupService.isCleanupDue()) {
  ctx.waitUntil(cleanupService.runScheduledCleanup());
}

2. Durable Object Integration

Uses existing SandboxLifecycle Durable Object for state management:

• Sandbox creation and lifecycle tracking
• Status updates (initializing → ready → running → completed/failed)
• Log collection and storage
• Timeout detection via alarms
• Cleanup via periodic tasks

3. Storage Integration

R2 Storage:

• Agent artifacts with sandbox metadata
• Execution metadata including sandbox logs
• Resource usage reports
• Error details and stack traces

KV Storage:

• Sandbox metrics (latest and historical)
• Cleanup metrics
• Health status cache
• Alert storage
