# 샌드박스에서 Pi 실행하기

> 연결된 터미널에서 Pi를 실행하고 필요하면 W&B Serverless Inference를 함께 사용한 뒤, 작업 결과를 가져오세요.

Run [Pi](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi) inside a CoreWeave sandbox to work on a repository from your terminal. Pi's agent process, files, and shell commands run in the sandbox. Model requests go to your chosen provider. This guide covers creating the workspace, connecting to Pi, checking its work, and stopping compute.

## Prerequisites

Before you begin, you need the following:

* macOS 또는 Linux 터미널, Python 3.12 이상, [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/)
* 샌드박스 액세스에 사용할 [W\&B API 키](https://forge.coreweave.com/settings#apikeys). 예시에서는 W\&B 인증을 명시적으로 선택합니다.
* [Pi에서 지원하는 모델 공급자](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/blob/main/packages/coding-agent/docs/providers.md)의 자격 증명. 이 가이드에서는 W\&B Serverless Inference를 사용하며, [추론 크레딧](/ko/products/inference/serverless/api-reference#prerequisites)이 필요합니다.
* 공개 Git 저장소 URL. 비공개 저장소를 사용하려면 샌드박스 내에서 별도로 Git 인증을 설정해야 합니다.

## Prepare your local environment

Create a local project and install the Sandbox software development kit (SDK):

```bash theme={"system"}
uv init --bare pi-sandbox
cd pi-sandbox
uv venv --python 3.12
source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install 'cwsandbox[wandb]==1.14.2'
```

같은 터미널에서 `[WANDB-API-KEY]`를 W\&B API 키로 바꾸세요.

```bash theme={"system"}
export WANDB_API_KEY="[WANDB-API-KEY]"
```

The SDK uses this local credential to manage the sandbox. The creation script doesn't copy it into the sandbox. You configure model authentication separately.

## Create the sandbox

Save the following script as `create_pi_sandbox.py`. It creates a CPU sandbox, installs Pi `0.87.1`, and clones the repository. The Node.js image supplies the runtime and Git. If setup fails, the script stops the sandbox before raising the error.

```python title="create_pi_sandbox.py" theme={"system"}
import sys

from cwsandbox import AuthStrategy, Sandbox

if len(sys.argv) != 2:
    raise SystemExit("Pass a repository URL.")

sandbox = Sandbox.run(
    auth=AuthStrategy.WANDB,
    placement_mode="serverless",
    container_image="node:22-bookworm",
    resources={"cpu": "2", "memory": "4Gi"},
    max_lifetime_seconds=4 * 3600,
    tags=["pi-cli"],
)
print(f"Sandbox ID: {sandbox.sandbox_id}", flush=True)
try:
    sandbox.wait()
    commands = [
        ["npm", "install", "--global", "--ignore-scripts", "@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent@0.87.1"],
        ["mkdir", "-p", "/workspace"],
        ["git", "clone", "--", sys.argv[1], "/workspace/project"],
        ["pi", "--version"],
    ]
    for command in commands:
        result = sandbox.exec(command, timeout_seconds=900, check=True).result()
        print(result.stdout, end="")
except BaseException:
    sandbox.stop().result()
    raise
```

Replace `[REPOSITORY-URL]` with your repository URL, then run:

```bash theme={"system"}
python create_pi_sandbox.py [REPOSITORY-URL]
```

Keep the printed sandbox ID. Successful setup prints Pi's version, `0.87.1`. The sandbox remains running after the script exits, until you stop it or its 4-hour lifetime expires. The lifetime includes startup time.

## Attach your terminal

Save the following as `attach_sandbox.py`. It forwards your terminal input to a Bash shell in the sandbox and restores your local terminal settings when the shell exits.

```python title="attach_sandbox.py" theme={"system"}
import os
import shutil
import sys
import termios
import threading
import tty

from cwsandbox import AuthStrategy, Sandbox

if not sys.stdin.isatty() or not sys.stdout.isatty():
    raise SystemExit("Run this script in an interactive terminal.")

sandbox = Sandbox.from_id(sys.argv[1], auth=AuthStrategy.WANDB).result()
size = shutil.get_terminal_size()
terminal = sandbox.shell(["/bin/bash"], width=size.columns, height=size.lines)
fd = sys.stdin.fileno()
saved = termios.tcgetattr(fd)


def forward_input():
    while data := os.read(fd, 1024):
        terminal.stdin.write(data).result()
    terminal.stdin.close().result()


try:
    tty.setraw(fd)
    threading.Thread(target=forward_input, daemon=True).start()
    for chunk in terminal.output:
        sys.stdout.buffer.write(chunk)
        sys.stdout.buffer.flush()
    result = terminal.result()
finally:
    termios.tcsetattr(fd, termios.TCSADRAIN, saved)
    terminal.stdin.close().result()

raise SystemExit(result.returncode)
```

Replace `[SANDBOX-ID]` with your sandbox ID:

```bash theme={"system"}
python attach_sandbox.py [SANDBOX-ID]
```

At the sandbox's Bash prompt, enter the cloned repository:

```bash theme={"system"}
cd /workspace/project
```

Inside this shell, run the provider setup and Pi commands in the following sections.

## Choose a model provider

다음 옵션 중 하나를 선택하세요. 샌드박스 인증과 모델 인증은 둘 다 W\&B 키를 사용하더라도 서로 별개입니다. Pi는 자신의 프로세스에 제공된 자격 증명에 액세스할 수 있으며, 워크스페이스 콘텐츠를 선택한 모델 공급자에게 보낼 수 있습니다.

### Use Serverless Inference

We recommend [W\&B Serverless Inference](/products/inference/serverless) for this walkthrough. The example uses `zai-org/GLM-5.2`. Choose another model from the [model catalog](/products/inference/serverless/models) if it better fits your task.

샌드박스 셸에서 입력 내용이 표시되지 않는 프롬프트에 W\&B 추론 키를 입력하세요. 계정에 추론 크레딧이 있으면 샌드박스 액세스에 사용한 W\&B 키를 그대로 사용할 수 있습니다.

```bash theme={"system"}
read -r -s -p 'W&B inference API key: ' WANDB_INFERENCE_API_KEY
export WANDB_INFERENCE_API_KEY
printf '\n'
```

In the sandbox shell, configure Pi's OpenAI-compatible provider. The following commands create the `~/.pi/agent/models.json` file. The quoted heredoc preserves the environment-variable reference so the file doesn't contain the key:

```bash theme={"system"}
mkdir -p ~/.pi/agent
cat > ~/.pi/agent/models.json <<'JSON'
{
  "providers": {
    "wandb": {
      "baseUrl": "https://api.inference.wandb.ai/v1",
      "api": "openai-completions",
      "apiKey": "${WANDB_INFERENCE_API_KEY}",
      "models": [
        {
          "id": "zai-org/GLM-5.2",
          "name": "GLM 5.2 (W&B)",
          "reasoning": true,
          "input": ["text"],
          "contextWindow": 1048576,
          "maxTokens": 8192
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
JSON
pi --provider wandb --model zai-org/GLM-5.2
```

Pi opens its terminal interface with `/workspace/project` and `zai-org/GLM-5.2` in the status area. Submit a task in [Run Pi and check its work](#run-pi-and-check-its-work) to verify model access.

The configuration limits each response to 8,192 tokens. If you change models, update the model ID and capabilities to match the provider. For more configuration options, see [Pi model configuration](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/blob/main/packages/coding-agent/docs/models.md).

### Use another provider

To use Anthropic or OpenAI directly, choose the corresponding API key and start Pi in the same sandbox shell:

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Anthropic">
    ```bash theme={"system"}
    read -r -s -p 'Anthropic API key: ' ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
    export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
    printf '\n'
    pi --provider anthropic
    ```
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="OpenAI">
    ```bash theme={"system"}
    read -r -s -p 'OpenAI API key: ' OPENAI_API_KEY
    export OPENAI_API_KEY
    printf '\n'
    pi --provider openai
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

Use `/model` inside Pi to choose a model available to your provider. The Pi provider documentation linked in the prerequisites covers other providers and account sign-in options.

## Run Pi and check its work

If Pi displays a project trust prompt, follow it. To check that Pi can create and read a file in the cloned repository, submit this task in Pi:

```text theme={"system"}
Create sandbox-proof.txt in the current directory containing exactly "Hello from CoreWeave", then read it back.
```

Pi can read, write, and edit files and run shell commands. Its tools operate with the permissions of the sandbox process. Review the repository and any Pi extensions you load. See [Pi security](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/blob/main/packages/coding-agent/docs/security.md).

After Pi finishes, enter `/quit` to return to the sandbox shell. Pi prints a `To resume this session:` line with a `pi --session` command. Keep that command to reopen this conversation.

Verify the file independently:

```bash theme={"system"}
cat /workspace/project/sandbox-proof.txt
```

The output should contain `Hello from CoreWeave`.

For an unattended task with the W\&B setup, run Pi in print mode from the same shell:

```bash theme={"system"}
pi --provider wandb --model zai-org/GLM-5.2 --print 'Read sandbox-proof.txt and report its contents.'
```

Print mode processes the prompt, prints Pi's response, and exits. For another provider, replace the provider and model arguments with your selection.

## Reconnect to a conversation

To reconnect while the sandbox is running, run the `attach_sandbox.py` script again. Re-enter any API keys supplied through the previous shell and return to the `/workspace/project` directory before starting Pi. To reopen your interactive conversation, replace `[SESSION-ID]` with the ID from the `To resume this session:` line Pi printed when you exited:

```bash theme={"system"}
pi --session [SESSION-ID]
```

Alternatively, `pi --continue` resumes the most recent session for the project. If you ran the print-mode example after your interactive conversation, it resumes the print-mode session. Use `--session` to return to a specific conversation.

## Retrieve the result and stop

Enter `exit` to leave the sandbox shell. In your local terminal, save the following as `collect_pi_result.py`:

```python title="collect_pi_result.py" theme={"system"}
import sys
from pathlib import Path

from cwsandbox import AuthStrategy, Sandbox

if len(sys.argv) != 2:
    raise SystemExit("Pass a sandbox ID.")

sandbox = Sandbox.from_id(sys.argv[1], auth=AuthStrategy.WANDB).result()
content = sandbox.read_file("/workspace/project/sandbox-proof.txt").result()
Path("sandbox-proof.txt").write_bytes(content)
print(content.decode(), end="")
sandbox.stop().result()
```

To save the file locally and stop compute, replace `[SANDBOX-ID]` with your sandbox ID and run the script:

```bash theme={"system"}
python collect_pi_result.py [SANDBOX-ID]
```

This script stops the sandbox only after it retrieves the file. If retrieval fails, fix the error and retry. To stop the sandbox separately when you no longer need its files, save the following as `stop_pi_sandbox.py`:

```python title="stop_pi_sandbox.py" theme={"system"}
import sys

from cwsandbox import AuthStrategy, Sandbox

if len(sys.argv) != 2:
    raise SystemExit("Pass a sandbox ID.")

sandbox = Sandbox.from_id(sys.argv[1], auth=AuthStrategy.WANDB).result()
sandbox.stop().result()
```

Run the script with your sandbox ID:

```bash theme={"system"}
python stop_pi_sandbox.py [SANDBOX-ID]
```

Pi나 셸을 종료해도 샌드박스는 중지되지 않습니다. 이 예제에는 영구 마운트가 없으므로 샌드박스를 중지하거나 샌드박스가 만료되기 전에 필요한 파일을 모두 가져오세요. 새 샌드박스에 복원할 수 있는 워크스페이스가 필요하다면 샌드박스를 생성할 때 [파일 시스템 스냅샷](/products/sandboxes/serverless/file-system-snapshots)을 설정하세요.

## Troubleshoot

Use these checks to resolve common issues:

* If sandbox creation fails, check your sandbox credential and the sandbox authentication requirements linked in the prerequisites.
* If Pi can't authenticate, check that the model credential is exported in the shell that starts Pi. With W\&B, also check inference credits and the model ID.
* If Pi can't reach its provider, check outbound access to the provider endpoint. Installation and cloning also require access to npm and your Git host.
* If your connection drops, attach again while the sandbox runs. If you need a process to survive terminal disconnections, use a terminal multiplexer such as `tmux`.
