# Docker Sandboxes Docker Sandboxes run AI coding agents in isolated microVM sandboxes. Each sandbox gets its own Docker daemon, filesystem, and network — the agent can build containers, install packages, and modify files without touching your host system. Organization admins can [centrally manage sandbox network and filesystem policies](/ai/sandboxes/governance/org/) from the Docker Admin Console, so the same rules apply uniformly across every developer's machine. Available on a separate paid subscription. ## Get started For complete system requirements, see the [get started prerequisites](/ai/sandboxes/get-started/#prerequisites). Install the `sbx` CLI and sign in: **macOS** ```console $ brew install docker/tap/sbx $ sbx login ``` **Windows** ```powershell > winget install -h Docker.sbx > sbx login ``` **Linux (Ubuntu)** ```console $ curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sudo REPO_ONLY=1 sh $ sudo apt-get install docker-sbx $ sudo usermod -aG kvm $USER $ newgrp kvm $ sbx login ``` Then launch an agent in a sandbox: ```console $ cd ~/my-project $ sbx run claude ``` See the [get started guide](/ai/sandboxes/get-started/) for a full walkthrough, or jump to the [usage guide](/ai/sandboxes/usage/) for common patterns. ## Learn more - [Agents](/ai/sandboxes/agents) — supported agents and per-agent configuration - [Customize](/ai/sandboxes/customize) — reusable templates and declarative kits for extending or tailoring sandboxes - [Architecture](/ai/sandboxes/architecture/) — microVM isolation, workspace mounting, networking - [Security](/ai/sandboxes/security) — isolation model, credential handling, and network policies - [CLI reference](/reference/cli/sbx/) — full list of `sbx` commands and options - [Troubleshooting](/ai/sandboxes/troubleshooting/) — common issues and fixes - [FAQ](/ai/sandboxes/faq/) — login requirements, telemetry, etc ## Feedback Your feedback shapes what gets built next.
