Maintained directly in the ArenAPI application.
The sandbox market,
mapped to one interface.
We continuously compare official provider documentation against a common capability model. Integration labels show exactly how ArenAPI can connect today.
Connects through the published standard driver contract.
Specialized runtime that does not expose the complete shell contract.
Every provider we found
Capabilities reflect documented provider features. A built-in adapter starts with the portable lifecycle, command, file, and archive operations.
Docker
self hostedDirect Docker Engine adapter. Best for controlled development and dedicated worker pools.
Local development
self hostedDevelopment and contract testing only. It is not an isolation boundary.
Runloop
managed sandboxNative adapter uses the Devbox Hypertext Transfer Protocol interface.
