A public OpenAPI file covers 69 operations. No terms of service, privacy policy or security page was found, the free plan includes no compute credit, and the changelog holds one entry from November 2024.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Blaxel Sandboxes\n\n1. Close WebSocket and terminal connections when done. An open connection keeps the sandbox active and billed\n2. Set a TTL or idle expiry on throwaway sandboxes. The default is to keep them\n3. Set `forbiddenDomains` or an allow list at creation, with `network.firewall` for tools that ignore proxy settings. Both can only be set when the sandbox is created\n4. Retry only on WORKLOAD_UNAVAILABLE. The error reference says other codes won't succeed on retry\n5. Connect to `\u003csandbox URL\u003e/mcp` with your API key instead of wrapping the REST API in tools yourself\n\n### Morph Cloud\n\n1. Set `ttl_seconds` and `ttl_action` when starting an instance. Nothing in the docs stops an instance with no TTL from billing MCUs\n2. Pass `auth_mode: api_key` when exposing an HTTP service. The default is `none`, which makes the URL public\n3. Enable `wake_on_ssh` before calling exec on an instance that may be paused. There is no separate exec wake setting\n4. Use `/api/instance/list` and `/api/snapshot/list` with `page` and `limit` (default 50, maximum 1,000). The plain list routes return everything\n5. On a 503 from snapshot, branch, pause or reboot, wait for the `Retry-After` value before repeating the call\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Blaxel Sandboxes or Morph Cloud?\n\nBlaxel Sandboxes scores 60.7 (C) on agent readiness against Morph Cloud's 50.8 (D), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. Morph Cloud leads on reliability.\n\n### Do Blaxel Sandboxes and Morph Cloud need an API key?\n\nBlaxel Sandboxes takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Morph Cloud needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Blaxel Sandboxes and Morph Cloud without installing anything?\n\nYes. Blaxel Sandboxes has a hosted endpoint at https://api.blaxel.ai/v0 and Morph Cloud at https://cloud.morph.so/api.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/blaxel-sandboxes-vs-morph-cloud.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/blaxel-sandboxes-vs-morph-cloud.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"blaxel-sandboxes\", \"b\": \"morph-cloud\"}`.
