README
Run, orchestrate, and stream coding agents — from a single control plane.
CIAB (**Claude-In-A-Box**) is an open-source control plane for coding agents. Spin up **Claude Code**, **Codex**, **Gemini CLI**, or **Cursor** in isolated sandboxes — as local processes, containers, Kubernetes pods, or EC2 instances — and manage them through a unified **REST API**, **CLI**, **desktop app**, or **any web browser**.
Every sandbox gets its own workspace, credentials, repos, and real-time streaming output. Access them from your laptop, phone, tablet, or CI pipeline — from the same network or anywhere in the world via built-in tunneling.
