What can an AI teammate do with E2B?

An E2B AI assistant can create cloud sandbox environments, run code in multiple languages, execute shell commands, upload and read files, and tear down environments when done. This lets your AI assistant safely execute real code and return actual output, not just write suggestions.

Is the code execution safe?

Yes. E2B runs all code in isolated cloud containers that are fully separated from your local machine and infrastructure. Each sandbox is ephemeral and disposed of after use, so there is no risk of side effects leaking between runs.

Which languages and runtimes does E2B support?

E2B supports Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Bash, and other common runtimes out of the box. Custom sandbox templates let you pre-install additional dependencies or configure specific environments for your use case.

Do write actions like running code require my approval?

Yes. Any action that creates a sandbox, executes code, or modifies files is a write action and requires your explicit approval before the AI teammate proceeds. Read-only actions like listing sandboxes or reading output files do not require approval.

AI Teammate for E2B

An AI teammate that runs code, executes scripts, and manages secure cloud sandboxes.

Your AI teammate for E2B spins up isolated cloud sandbox environments, runs code in any language, executes shell commands, and uploads or reads files, all without touching your local machine. An ideal AI assistant for automated testing, code generation workflows, and on-demand script execution. Write actions always require your approval.

Running untrusted or generated code locally is risky and slow to set up. E2B gives your AI teammate a secure, disposable cloud environment to execute code, test scripts, and iterate fast, so you get real results, not just suggestions.
