Emergent (E2B)

Overview

E2B (Emergent) provides secure cloud sandboxes designed for AI agents. Each sandbox is a lightweight VM where LLM-generated code can run safely — install packages, write files, and execute commands without risk to the host system. E2B is the infrastructure layer for autonomous AI coding.

Key Features

• •Instant sandbox creation in under 200ms
• •Python and Node.js runtimes pre-configured
• •Filesystem access for reading and writing files
• •Package installation (pip, npm) within sandboxes
• •Persistent sessions across multiple LLM interactions
• •Simple SDK for integration with any AI framework

Example: Running AI-Generated Code

import { Sandbox } from '@e2b/code-interpreter';

const sandbox = await Sandbox.create();
const result = await sandbox.runCode(`
  import pandas as pd
  df = pd.DataFrame({'name': ['Alice', 'Bob'], 'score': [95, 87]})
  print(df.describe())
`);
console.log(result.text);
await sandbox.close();
