Documented steps Install and initialize the SDK (pip install runloop_api_client / npm install @runloop/api-client) with RUNLOOP_API_KEY set. Python: `runloop = AsyncRunloopSDK(); devbox = await runloop.devbox.create()` — devbox.id identifies the box once created. Run a synchronous command: `result = await devbox.cmd.exec(command="echo 'Runloop!!'")`, then read `await result.stdout()` and `result.exit_code`. TypeScript equivalent: `const devbox = await runloop.devbox.create(); const result = await devbox.cmd.exec("echo 'Runloop!!'"); await result.stdout(); result.exitCode;` Shut the devbox down when finished: `await devbox.shutdown()`. Docs: https://docs.runloop.ai/docs/tutorials/quickstart and https://docs.runloop.ai/docs/devboxes/overview
Known gotchas Default maximum devbox lifetime is 1 hour unless launch_parameters override it. By default Runloop takes no automatic action on an idle devbox — idle shutdown/suspend must be explicitly configured. Always call devbox.shutdown() explicitly or the devbox keeps accruing compute charges until it hits its max lifetime.
