What Agents R Environment does

Installing R (and R reference packages) in this sandbox

This note is for a future agent who needs a live R reference to cross-validate a Python port — the differential-TDD workflow in `agents_tests.md`. It records what actually works in the Claude Code remote sandbox, where the naive `install.packages()` path is dead on arrival.

The one thing to know: CRAN is blocked, apt and GitHub-over-git are open

The sandbox routes outbound HTTPS through an egress proxy with an allowlist. In practice
