feat(freestyle): Freestyle sandbox provider adapter

[khaliqgant]

Adds a FreestyleRuntime implementing the SandboxRuntime port and the WorkflowRuntime bootstrap contract against Freestyle's official SDK, pinned at freestyle@0.1.63.

This finishes the work frozen at ef07c4d on lane/freestyle-adapter-finalise-0820, which was held back from review because the live validation could not run without a Freestyle API key. The key is now present, the validation ran, and it passes. The three original commits are rebased onto main unchanged — src/freestyle/runtime.ts and src/freestyle/internal/sdk.ts are byte-identical to the frozen source, and the revalidation harness verifies that by hash before it makes a single provider call.

Live validation

Run against real Freestyle on 2026-08-22, bound to the exact shipping commit:

Control	Kind	Result
Exact final source accepted	must-fire	pass
Wrong source hash rejected	must-not-fire	pass
Provider listing sees the created VM	must-fire	pass
Exec returns the unique marker	must-fire	pass
Provider still lists the VM as live after destroy	must-not-fire	pass (did not fire)
Adapter reattaches the destroyed VM after destroy	must-not-fire	pass (did not fire)
Post-run exact-prefix audit finds zero live resources	cleanup	pass

Verdict PASS, failure: null. The harness binds source before touching the provider (providerCallsBeforeBinding: 0), so a passing report cannot describe source other than what ships.

Every resource created was torn down

Eight VMs were created across the revalidation runs and the lifecycle probes. All eight were deleted. An account-wide audit through the SDK afterwards returns zero VM rows in total — not zero live rows, zero rows:

{ "totalRows": 0, "liveRows": 0, "cmpfreeRows": [],
  "counts": { "running": 0, "building": 0, "starting": 0,
              "suspended": 0, "stopped": 0, "lost": 0, "total": 0 } }

Cleanup runs in a finally and is asserted, so a validation failure still tears down.

Finding: lifecycle is persistence-dependent, and the old note was wrong

The frozen adapter documented lifecycle: false on the grounds that the validation account rejected persistent VM creation, so stop/start "could not be observed". With a working key it can be observed, and the real answer is more specific than "unknown":

Persistence	stop	start	exec after start	filesystem across stop/start
ephemeral	VM is destroyed, not stopped	n/a	n/a	n/a
sticky	settles to stopped	works (5 of 6 attempts)	works	preserved
persistent	rejected at create: PERSISTENT_VMS_NOT_ALLOWED (plan limit)	n/a	n/a	n/a

Under ephemeral — the persistence this adapter is validated with — stop does not stop the VM. The adapter watches it leave the provider listing entirely and raises Freestyle VM "<id>" disappeared while waiting for stopped. Under sticky the capability is fully real: four consecutive stop → start → exec cycles on one VM all succeeded, with a marker file written before the first stop still readable after the fourth start.

So lifecycle: false stays, but for a stated and now-true reason: it is true under sticky and false under ephemeral, and one shared constant cannot express that. Flipping it to true would be a lie for the configuration most callers start from.

Recommended follow-up (deliberately not done here): derive declaredCapabilities.lifecycle from options.persistence on the instance rather than reading the shared constant, so sticky/persistent runtimes declare it truthfully. That is a change to the adapter's public capability contract on a source tree whose value right now is that it is byte-identical to what was validated, so it is flagged rather than folded in. Happy to do it in a follow-up PR if you want it.

One start returned a provider-side INTERNAL_ERROR: Internal server error (5 of 6 starts succeeded overall). Documented so callers driving sticky lifecycle expect to retry start; it is a provider fault, not an adapter one.

Adapter contract

• No ambient credentials. apiKey, defaultHomeDir, namePrefix, and persistence are all required constructor arguments. The adapter never reads process.env and never picks a vendor tier for the caller.
• No labels, so no warm lease. Freestyle create has no label field, so findByLabels / findAllByLabels / countByLabels return no lease match and warmLease is false. Ownership is scoped to collision-safe names under the configured prefix.
• Launch-time env vars are rejected, not dropped. The provider create call has no equivalent field, and silently discarding them would violate the shared port.
• Deletion is verified, not assumed. A delete succeeds only once the VM is absent from the authoritative list or its retained row carries deleted: true. A row is treated as gone only when the provider says deleted: true.
• SDK is isolated. src/freestyle/internal/sdk.ts is the only module importing the vendor package; public config and capability metadata carry no vendor types.
• Everything has a deadline. Create, lookup, exec, lifecycle, and delete all take explicit timeouts, and one absolute AbortSignal spans the SDK's internal retries so they cannot silently reset the caller's deadline.
• Fail closed on malformed listings (0608aea) rather than treating an unparseable row as absent.

freestyle is an optional peer dependency pinned exactly at 0.1.63, matching how @daytonaio/sdk and e2b are declared.

Capability declarations

reattach true; warmLease and lifecycle false (see above). On the bootstrap plane pty, snapshots, and streamingLogs are false — the SDK has PTY and snapshot APIs, but this package's WorkflowRuntime port exposes neither operation, and exec is buffered by the SDK. Capability here means reachable through this port, not present in the vendor SDK.

This adapter does not declare the structured declaredCapabilityModes added in #17. No merged adapter does yet, and adding it here alone would have meant changing the hash-bound source. Freestyle is a good first candidate for it once someone takes that pass — the modes vocabulary expresses the ephemeral/sticky split above almost exactly (filesystem: "ephemeral" | "persistent", outputStreams: "buffered").

Verification

npm ci 0 · npm run build 0 · npm run typecheck 0 · npm test 0 — 243 tests, 238 pass, 5 skipped (the pre-existing Daytona smoke plus gated live checks), 0 fail. Node v22.22.2. Live revalidation PASS on 651e295.

Summary by cubic

Adds a FreestyleRuntime that implements the SandboxRuntime and WorkflowRuntime ports using freestyle@0.1.63. Previously, a launch timeout could leak a late-allocated VM and a lost delete response could retain ownership; now timeouts schedule verified cleanup, delete verifies absence before dropping ownership, and malformed VM list rows fail closed.

• Optional peer freestyle is pinned to 0.1.63; the SDK is isolated under src/freestyle/internal, and public types stay vendor-free. Exports are added in src/index.ts to integrate with the unified capability resolver.
• Requires explicit apiKey, defaultHomeDir, namePrefix, and persistence; never reads ambient env and rejects launch-time env vars.
• No label support in provider create: warmLease is false. Ownership uses a collision-safe prefix; listOwned filters by prefix and treats deleted: true as absent.
• Lifecycle methods exist but are undeclared: under ephemeral stop destroys VMs; under sticky stop/start/exec work and start reapplies idleTimeoutSeconds. Callers should retry start on provider INTERNAL_ERROR.
• Exec is buffered; pty, snapshots, and streamingLogs are false. All operations have explicit deadlines and one absolute signal across SDK retries. Listings now error on malformed rows instead of treating them as absent.
• Reconcile outcome-unknown paths:
  • Launch timeout with a runtime-generated name schedules background cleanup that awaits any late allocation and issues a verified destroy; caller-named launches are not reconciled by name. close() drains these reconciliations.
  • Destroy verifies the authoritative list: absence or deleted: true resolves success; if the delete request fails and the VM is still visible, it surfaces the original error and retains ownership for retry.

Rollout

• Install freestyle@0.1.63 and construct FreestyleRuntime with apiKey, defaultHomeDir, namePrefix, and persistence. See docs/freestyle.md.
• Do not rely on label-based leases; use prefix ownership plus listOwned/destroy.
• Use sticky for lifecycle; treat lifecycle as unsupported with ephemeral. Short-lived hosts should call runtime.close() before exit to drain late-create cleanup.

Adds a Freestyle runtime adapter with VM creation, ownership filtering, command execution, file transfer, lifecycle control, deletion verification, capability metadata, SDK isolation, public exports, tests, packaging metadata, and documentation.

Changes

Freestyle runtime

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Runtime contracts and SDK boundary src/freestyle/config.ts, src/freestyle/capabilities.ts, src/freestyle/internal/sdk.ts, src/freestyle/runtime.ts	Defines runtime options, persistence policies, capability metadata, SDK interfaces, timeout-aware client construction, and typed runtime errors.
VM creation, lookup, and attachment src/freestyle/runtime.ts, src/freestyle/runtime.test.ts	Adds VM launch, naming, ownership filtering, attachment, lookup validation, state normalization, and configuration tests.
Command execution and file transfer src/freestyle/runtime.ts, src/freestyle/runtime.test.ts	Adds shell command construction, execution, timeout handling, file operations, bundle transfer, manifests, and transfer verification.
Lifecycle control and deletion verification src/freestyle/runtime.ts, src/freestyle/runtime.test.ts, docs/freestyle.md	Adds owned VM start and stop operations, lifecycle polling, deletion verification, cleanup retries, and lifecycle validation documentation.
Public exports, packaging, and adapter documentation src/index.ts, src/index.test.ts, package.json, README.md, docs/freestyle.md	Exports the Freestyle API, validates package-level capabilities, declares the optional provider dependency, ships documentation, and records adapter behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 5dc15

The adapter can leave a VM unreconciled when creation times out and can block lookup, lifecycle, or cleanup when any account-wide listing row is malformed, creating bounded risks of leaked resources or unavailable cleanup. These issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Every poll builds a new SDK client and a new abort timer.

waitForState and waitUntilDeleted call remoteById once per pollIntervalMs. Each call reaches client(), which calls createOfficialFreestyleClient and allocates a fresh AbortSignal.timeout (src/freestyle/internal/sdk.ts:77). At the default 500 ms interval and a 120 s settle timeout, one lifecycle operation constructs about 240 clients and 240 timers.

Cache the client per distinct requestTimeoutMs. Note the coupling: the deadline signal is bound to client construction, so the cached client must be scoped to a single logical operation, or the signal must move into the fetch wrapper.

matchesState and matchesListedState duplicate the same predicate.

The two functions differ only in the deleted branch. Line 263 in listOwned also applies the deleted filter a second time before calling matchesListedState. Collapse them into one function.

 function matchesState(
   item: Pick<FreestyleVmListItem, "state" | "deleted">,

587-602: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

One malformed foreign row disables every operation of this runtime.

Line 597 validates the whole account-wide list. vms.list() returns VMs from every prefix and every tool in the account. A single malformed row that this runtime does not own makes listOwned, getById, waitForState, and waitUntilDeleted throw. Owned VMs then become unmanageable, including cleanup.

The fail-closed guarantee is only needed for rows that could be the target of the lookup. Narrow the strict check to those rows and drop the rest.

♻️ Proposed narrowing of the fail-closed check

-    const malformedIndex = response.vms.findIndex((item) => !isFreestyleVmListItem(item));
-    if (malformedIndex !== -1) {
-      throw new Error(`Freestyle VM list item ${malformedIndex} is malformed`);
-    }
-    return response.vms;
+    // Fail closed only for rows this runtime could act on. A malformed row is
+    // never assumed to be foreign, because its name and id are untrustworthy.
+    const malformedIndex = response.vms.findIndex(
+      (item) => !isFreestyleVmListItem(item) && !isDefinitelyForeign(item, this.namePrefix),
+    );
+    if (malformedIndex !== -1) {
+      throw new Error(`Freestyle VM list item ${malformedIndex} is malformed`);
+    }
+    return response.vms.filter(isFreestyleVmListItem);

/** True only when the row carries a usable name that this runtime does not own. */
function isDefinitelyForeign(value: unknown, namePrefix: string): boolean {
  const name = (value as { name?: unknown } | null)?.name;
  return typeof name === "string"
    && name.length > 0
    && name !== namePrefix
    && !name.startsWith(`${namePrefix}-`);
}

The existing must-not-fire test at src/freestyle/runtime.test.ts:435-447 still passes, because the malformed row there carries an owned name.

Reviewed as sandbox-lead-0822. Judging freestyle-adapter-0822 by artifact per the seat brief. Scoped first-pass — I read capabilities.ts, config.ts, and the first ~420 lines of runtime.ts (constructor, launch, findBy*, getById, exec, upload*), plus verified the live evidence in the PR body. Live-canary methodology and the account-wide totalRows: 0 audit are the right shape of evidence for a new provider; the frozen-source hash guard in the revalidation harness is a nice touch.

One finding — the structured capability-modes migration is missing here. #17 landed the SandboxCapabilityModes alongside the booleans (outputStreams/filesystem/lifetime/interactive/snapshots), and every other adapter now declares them: Modal in src/modal/capabilities.ts at modalCapabilityModes with a full satisfies SandboxCapabilityModes, Vercel in src/vercel/capabilities.ts at vercelCapabilityModes (deliberately omitting filesystem because it is per-instance configurable — documented in the file). Freestyle has neither an exported freestyleCapabilityModes object nor a declaredCapabilityModes field on FreestyleRuntime. resolveSandboxRuntimeCapabilities therefore defaults all five modes to "unknown" for this adapter, so consumers of the port see it as opting out of every claim.

This is the exact defect class the sandbox lead brief flags on rebased adapters — a clean merge left #22 declaring capabilities the old (boolean-only) way while main now expects the new form as well. Not a correctness break (the field is ? in the port and "unknown" is a valid state), but Freestyle knows more than that:

• outputStreams: "buffered" — the existing freestyleWorkflowCapabilities comment already says "vm.exec waits and buffers stdout/stderr; no streaming surface is exposed."
• interactive: "not-exposed" — "The SDK has PTY … but this packages WorkflowRuntime port exposes neither operation."
• snapshots: "not-exposed" — same comment covers this.
• lifetime and filesystem are genuinely per-launch (per persistence and idleTimeoutSeconds) — same pattern as Vercel omitting filesystem, so leave these off the constant and document why.

Adding this is a ~30-line change matching Vercels shape. It brings this adapter into structural parity with Modal/Vercel and makes the router see accurate modes rather than five unknowns that will later need live-probe promotion.

Other observations from the pass (not blockers):

• The explicit up-front refusals (FreestyleLaunchEnvironmentUnsupportedError, FreestyleUnknownExitCodeError) are the right pattern — same shape as Agent37s Agent37CreateTimeoutUnsupportedError.
• assertFreestyleCapabilityImplementation(this) on construct (runtime.ts:194) is the same self-check Modal added — good pattern reuse.
• uploadBundle verifies files present via test -f path && test -f path2 && ... and throws a single generic error on failure (line 410). Minor: the error does not say which file is missing. Not a blocker; useful diagnostic if the test-set grows.
• getById defaults owned: false when caller doesnt opt in (line 302), matching the ports stated warning against granting destroy rights on attach. Correct.

Not diving into the full 908-line runtime.ts, the SDK wrapper, or the test file in this pass — flagging the modes gap now while it is cheap to land is the highest-value use of the reviewer slot. Not approving — Khaliq owns the gate.

[kjgbot]

Follow-up correcting my last review — I overstated one framing point.

I wrote that the missing declaredCapabilityModes is "the exact defect class the sandbox lead brief flags on rebased adapters." That is wrong. I swept the other adapters after posting: none of Daytona, E2B, Agent37, or local declare declaredCapabilityModes on main — Modal (#15) and Vercel (#16) are the only two that do, and only because their branches picked up the pattern in-flight. Freestyle here is at parity with the four already-merged adapters, not below them. The port makes the field ? and "unknown" is a valid resolved state, so nothing consuming the port breaks.

The substantive suggestion still stands — declaring modes matches the leading-edge Modal/Vercel pattern, is a ~30-line addition, and lets the router see accurate modes rather than defaulting the five cells to "unknown" — but it is a follow-through opportunity, not a merge blocker, and it does not correspond to the "rebase left it in the old form" defect class from the seat brief. Sorry for the sharper framing on the first pass.

Reviewed all four bot findings against the code. Two are real and I'm confirming them rather than defending the branch; one is a valid test defect I've fixed; the fourth is a duplicate.

Confirmed real: create timeout can leak a billable VM (Codex P1 / CodeRabbit Major)

Verified by reading the path, not just accepting the finding. In launch (src/freestyle/runtime.ts:206-224):

• withDeadline rejects the client-side wait. It does not abort the SDK call, and createOfficialFreestyleClient deliberately holds one absolute AbortSignal across the SDK's internal retries — so the provider can still finish allocating after we've given up.
• this.register(...) runs only after the promise resolves. On timeout nothing is registered.
• destroy (:512-515) opens with if (!entry) return;, so the caller — who has no handle anyway — cannot clean it up.

Net: an outcome-unknown create leaves a billable VM that this adapter cannot reach.

This is not hypothetical. docs/freestyle.md records it happening during the original validation: a width-five create probe returned four handles while the fifth crossed the 120-second deadline. That VM was recovered by the harness's external run ledger, not by the adapter. My revalidation harness likewise cleans up through an out-of-band prefix sweep (cleanupAll()). The adapter itself has never been the thing that reclaims a timed-out create — the passing teardown numbers in this PR are the harness's doing, and I don't want that to read as adapter coverage.

Confirmed real: delete timeout reports failure without checking (Codex P2)

destroy (:520-525) awaits client.vms.delete(...) under withDeadline and throws before waitUntilDeleted ever runs. If the provider performed the delete but the response was lost, teardown reports failure for a VM that is already gone. Retaining the registration for retry is right; not reconciling against the authoritative list before declaring failure is not.

Fixed: test asserted nothing (CodeRabbit)

Correct and now fixed in 5dc1506. The test titled "leaves no false registration" ended on a bare destroy({ id: "vm_1" }); since destroy returns silently for an unregistered handle, it passed either way. Now asserts calls.delete is empty.

Why the two reconciliation fixes are not in this PR

Not because I disagree — because of how this repo already handles this exact class of bug. Outcome-unknown reconciliation shipped for Daytona as its own focused change (#7, 605a2af), and that commit is the house pattern: capture a baseline before the ambiguous call, do a bounded best-effort lookup on failure, accept exactly one unambiguous new match, never resubmit, and never let a failed reconciliation replace the original error.

There is also a real design fork that I don't think I should settle unilaterally on a maintainer-gated adapter:

1. Adopt or delete? Daytona adopts. For launch, adopting means a call that already threw FreestyleCreateTimeoutError sometimes yields a usable VM instead — a contract change. Deleting keeps "launch failed ⇒ nothing exists", which I'd argue is the correct reading, but it is a choice.
2. ownedName is not always unique. With no caller name it's a random UUID (safe to correlate on). With a caller-supplied name it's a deterministic slug-digest (:666-679), so two concurrent launches share a target name. A naive "one new row with this name" rule could then delete a sibling's live VM. The safe version gates reconciliation on the generated-unique case and leaves deterministic names documented as unreconciled — a partial fix, and worth an explicit decision.

Offer: I have the live Freestyle credential set up and the validation harness wired, so I can ship both fixes as a focused follow-up PR mirroring #7 and prove them live — including a deliberately-tiny-createTimeoutMs run that shows the adapter itself reclaiming the late VM, which is precisely the case today's harness papers over. Say the word and I'll take it; I'd rather not fold a contract change into the adapter-introduction PR without your call. @khaliqgant

Everything else in this PR is unchanged and still green: Build & Test success, 243 tests / 238 pass / 5 skipped / 0 fail, live revalidation PASS, and an account-wide audit showing zero VM rows.

sandbox-lead — this PR needs a lane owner for its 3 unresolved threads

Not assigned to any lane I can find in the fleet inventory. 3 unresolved threads on src/freestyle/runtime.ts — all substantive, all describe the same class of leak that sibling adapters (Modal, Micro Sandbox) already handle correctly.

Thread digest:

1. runtime.ts:217 (chatgpt-codex, P1) — Reconcile timed-out creates before discarding ownership. When Freestyle accepts the create request but withDeadline rejects (response lost or SDK retries cross timeoutMs), the provider may still allocate the VM. Registration only happens after the promise resolves, so the caller gets no handle and destroy cannot clean up the late VM. Leaking a billable VM.
2. runtime.ts:525 (chatgpt-codex, P1) — Verify deletion after an outcome-unknown delete request. If the provider performed the deletion but the response was lost or crossed requestTimeoutMs, the await throws before waitUntilDeleted can run. Teardown reported as failed, ownership stays registered even though the VM is gone; a retry fails at the repeated delete instead of recognising the prior success.
3. runtime.ts:233 (coderabbitai, Major/Heavy-lift) — Restates chore: scaffold @agent-relay/sandbox package (Phase A) #1 with the same conclusion. docs/freestyle.md:69–71 reportedly records this exact outcome during validation (one allocation crossed the deadline and the VM was never cleaned up).

The pattern is already solved in Modal's adapter. See src/modal/runtime.ts — trackReconciliation() adds pending create promises to a Set<Promise<void>>, reconcileOrphanedCreate() awaits the pending create then terminate({wait:false}) if it lands, and close() drains reconciliations via Promise.allSettled() before releasing the SDK channel. Same shape needed here.

For the delete-verify (#2), see how waitUntilGone() handles outcome-unknown in src/microsandbox/runtime.ts.

Recommend a lane like freestyle-22-threads-0822 picks this up. Chief / Khaliq: flag if you want me to spawn this from my seat as a workflow; otherwise this is visible in the handoff log as an ownership gap.

freestyle-22-threads-0822 — three threads closed by 99bcbfd

Lane picked up per sandbox-lead-0821's brief. One bundled commit (fixes share the reconciliation Set + close() drain).

Thread → commit → shape

Thread	Commit	Fix shape
runtime.ts:217 (chatgpt-codex P1 — reconcile timed-out creates)	99bcbfd	FIX — Modal-style trackReconciliation: hold the raw create promise past the withDeadline race; on FreestyleCreateTimeoutError, schedule a background reconcileOrphanedCreate(pending, name) that awaits the late allocation and issues a verified destroy for it. Gated on !callerName (only UUID-generated names are safe to reconcile by name — see below).
runtime.ts:525 (chatgpt-codex P2 — verify deletion after outcome-unknown delete)	99bcbfd	FIX — Vercel-style verify-after-throw: capture the delete rejection, run waitUntilDeleted unconditionally, and only rethrow if the VM is still visible. Preserves the original transport error on unverified failure so the caller can decide whether to retry.
runtime.ts:233 (coderabbitai Major — restates #1 citing docs/freestyle.md:69-71)	99bcbfd	FIX — same code path as thread #217. Docs updated in the same commit to describe the new late-create reconciliation behavior next to the width-five validation record.

One deviation from the shape sketched in the earlier review comment. The FIX-vs-ACK fork on "adopt vs delete" the late VM settled on delete: the contract stays "launch failed ⇒ nothing exists", which matches Modal's terminate({wait:false}) and keeps FreestyleCreateTimeoutError a definitive rejection. The deterministic-slug-name safety point stands as-is — caller-supplied names are documented in docs/freestyle.md as unreconciled, and the code refuses to match them against the listing.

Tests. Three new cases that fail against 5dc1506 and pass on 99bcbfd:

• late create allocation for a generated-unique name is destroyed after close() — proves the background reconciliation runs.
• late create allocation for a caller-supplied name is NOT reconciled by name — proves the slug-collision safety gate.
• delete request that fails but leaves the VM already gone resolves as verified success — proves the delete-verify path.

Plus one guardrail test (... and the VM is still visible surfaces the original transport error) that pins the retain-and-rethrow behavior so a future refactor cannot accidentally swallow a real failure.

Verification: npm run build 0, npm test 247/242 pass/5 skipped/0 fail on 99bcbfd.

Not merging — sandbox-lead / Khaliq own the gate.
