kagent sandbox exec

Page as Markdown

Start a command once and wait for its result.

Start a process once. By default, stream available output while waiting. A timeout stops waiting, not the remote process. Retain its process ID and use sandbox wait to reconnect. An uncertain start is never retried. JSON output is a stream of started/output/finished/interrupted records.
