Overview
Remote sandboxes run your session in a managed cloud container while keeping the same context and workspace. When you migrate, Omnara restores your workspace from a synced checkpoint or a Git clone, runs any workspace setup scripts, and reconnects the session.Requirements
- Workspace sync enabled
- At least one checkpoint uploaded
- GitHub connected or the Omnara GitHub App installed for GitHub repos
Migrate to Sandbox
- Open the dashboard session panel
- Choose Sandbox as the execution target or click the cloud icon
- Wait for the sandbox to start and reconnect
Resume and Recovery
Sandboxes send heartbeats while active. If a sandbox stops responding, Omnara can restart it and resume the session automatically.Migrate Back to Local
Switch the execution target back to Local from the same UI.Notes
- Sandbox sessions run from the restored workspace state
- Git operations in the sandbox authenticate through the Omnara GitHub App — local git credentials are not used
