Run untrusted agent code in a sandbox you pay for per session
Create an isolated runtime, execute code in it and tear it down, billed per sandbox and per operation in USDC. No cluster to run and no platform subscription.
The call
One endpoint, priced in dollars before it runs and settled in USDC. No API key and no account — the request pays for itself.
POST /api/v1/modal/sandbox/create
Host: blockrun.aiWhat it costs
Why per call
No seat, no minimum, no contract per vendor. Each request is quoted in dollars before it runs and settles on-chain, so an agent can pay for its own work without a human holding a credit card. How the payment works →

Questions
Why sandbox agent code at all?
Model-written code is untrusted input. Running it in an isolated runtime keeps it away from your own environment.
How is it billed?
One price to create a sandbox and a smaller one per operation, both quoted before the call runs.
Does the sandbox persist?
It lasts for the session you create and is torn down explicitly; there is nothing left running to be billed for.
What can run inside it?
Arbitrary code execution with inspection — the docs carry the exec and status shapes.
