What it does

Build or maintain Cloudflare Sandbox apps on the stable @cloudflare/sandbox package. Use sandbox-next for preview apps and sandbox-migrate-to-next for stable-to-preview migrations.

Sandbox SDK, stable package

Isolated Linux environments on Cloudflare Containers, driven from Workers.

Prefer the main Sandbox docs and installed stable types over memory. This skill is a gate, a contract, and a retrieval map, not a full manual.

This line is the current stable default npm package. The main Sandbox documentation describes it. Existing apps can stay here and keep shipping.

We recommend new projects on @cloudflare/sandbox@next with sandbox-next. When you can, plan a move with sandbox-migrate-to-next so you are ready when 1.0 becomes the stable release. Do not force that port unless the user asks.

1. Gate, confirm the package line

Before writing code, inspect the app:

CheckMust match
npm dependencyDefault @cloudflare/sandbox (not @next / preview tags)
Container imageMatching stable image (not cloudflare/sandbox:next)
If you find…Action
@cloudflare/sandbox@next or a next imageStop. Load sandbox-next.
User wants to port to 1.0 / @nextStop. Load sandbox-migrate-to-next. Do not half-apply preview APIs on a stable package.
Only cleaning deprecated stable APIsStay here; use the 2026 deprecation guide. That is not a move to @next.

Never mix a stable Worker package with an @next container image (or the reverse).
