​
Renew

Renewal returns a fresh expiry and refreshed environment connections. Scoped provider credentials can rotate, so update long-running clients from the renewal response. Read the returned lease object when present:
  • expiresAt is the current TTL boundary
  • idleExpiresAt is the inactivity boundary, when one applies
  • hardExpiresAt is the absolute lifetime boundary
  • renewable tells you whether another extension is allowed
Renewal never extends beyond the returned hardExpiresAt. Current API and web facade TTL enforcement are not yet uniform, so do not infer one plan-wide maximum. Treat the lease returned for the sandbox as authoritative.

​
Destroy

The default CLI command waits for confirmed destruction. Use --detach when a cleanup path needs fast durable acceptance, then wait separately if exact physical deletion is required.

​
Usage

Billing begins separately for each environment when it becomes ready and ends when teardown is durably accepted, the environment expires, or policy stops it. Failed provisioning and cold-start time are free. Each active environment costs $0.10 per minute, prorated by the billed second. A sandbox with GitHub, Slack, and Datadog therefore accrues three environment minutes for every ready minute. Check the authoritative workspace balance and reserved usage with:
Destroy promptly, bound CI parallelism, and create only the environments the test needs.
