A sandbox lifetime is a workflow decision: using Never in Lizard
Описание и применение
Установка срока жизни облачного рабочего пространства в Lizard на "Never" позволяет избежать преждевременного удаления среды во время длительных сборок и ожидания обзора, но требует явного удаления после завершения работы.
Задача
Fixed sandbox expiry can delete a working environment before a task finishes, causing loss of progress when a build is running, an agent is waiting for review, or a laptop is closed.
Результат
Setting sandbox lifetime to "Never" prevents unintended deletion during long-running or review-dependent tasks, while still requiring explicit cleanup to avoid unnecessary compute charges.
Рабочий процесс
- 1. In the Lizard dashboard, select "Never" under "Delete Sandbox after" when creating a sandbox.
- 2. Or use the CLI:
lizard sandbox create --size small --timeout 0to create a sandbox that never expires. - 3. Run your development task (e.g., install dependencies, start a long build, wait for review).
- 4. If needed, pause the sandbox (if supported) to preserve memory and files while you are away.
- 5. When the task is finished, manually delete the sandbox or let the owner decide to clean it up.
Доказательства
In the dashboard, choose Never under Delete Sandbox after when creating a sandbox. This disables scheduled expiry.
With the Lizard CLI, the corresponding creation flag is --timeout 0. For example: lizard sandbox create --size small --timeout 0
The current CLI default is a five-minute lifetime, not an indefinitely running workspace.
The update also describes pausing a supported sandbox and resuming it later with memory and files retained.
At the Small compute rate of $0.009 per hour, continuous execution for a 30-day month works out to: 30 days × 24 hours × $0.009 = $6.48
