Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability zero-daytona-zclk-cc-sandboxes-1c4b365e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Spin up a fresh Daytona ephemeral sandbox for me — I need a 1 CPU, 1 GB RAM environment for the next 30 minutes to run some quick code tests.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fresh, isolated, short-lived (30-minute) development or code-execution environment without any persistent state requirements. Ideal for running untrusted code, testing scripts, or one-off automation tasks where you want a clean slate and don't need the environment to persist. Best used when you will subsequently fetch port-preview URLs via the companion GET endpoint to expose services running in the sandbox.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — sandbox not created
- Resource limit reached — no available sandbox slots
- Invalid request body — returns 400 with validation error
- Provider backend unavailable — returns 503
- Sandbox provisioning timeout — creation takes too long and returns error

## How this service works

Provision an ephemeral Daytona sandbox (1 CPU, 1 GB RAM) for 30 minutes. Returns the sandbox id; fetch a port-preview URL on demand.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the sandbox ID of the newly provisioned ephemeral Daytona environment. The sandbox ID can then be used to fetch port-preview URLs, check sandbox status, or tear it down via other endpoints under the same brand.

## Response schema (JSON Schema)
