# E2E Sandbox Framework — Runbook

> **Migrated (2026-06-23):** `make e2e REPO=` and `python -m e2e_framework` now
> delegate to **wise-validator** (`validate run`) + **sand-boxer** (`sandboxer
> create`). The modules in this directory are **deprecated** and will be removed
> after one release cycle.

> **Canonical runbooks:**
> - [wise-validator: validate-compose-e2e](~/wise-validator/docs/runbooks/validate-compose-e2e.md)
> - [sand-boxer: profile-compose-e2e](~/sand-boxer/docs/runbooks/profile-compose-e2e.md)

---

## Prerequisites

**Workstation:**

- `validate` on PATH (`cd ~/wise-validator && make install`)
- `sandboxer` on PATH (`cd ~/sand-boxer && make install`)
- `ssh` available (BatchMode; respects `~/.ssh/config`)
- State Hub on `:8000` (optional, for result reporting)

**Sandbox host (CoulombCore / sandboxer01):**

- SSH key access
- `podman-compose` or `docker compose` (`SANDBOXER_COMPOSE_CMD` on CoulombCore)
- Sufficient disk for images (~4 GB for activity-core stack)

## First run

```bash
export SANDBOXER_HOST=92.205.130.254   # CoulombCore; or RAILIANCE01_HOST (legacy)
export SANDBOXER_COMPOSE_CMD=podman-compose

# From the-custodian:
make e2e REPO=activity-core
```

Output: sandbox create → health wait → tests → destroy. Exit 0 = pass, 1 = fail.

## Options

```bash
make e2e REPO=activity-core KEEP=1
make e2e REPO=activity-core HOST=92.205.130.254
make e2e REPO=activity-core WORKSTREAM_ID=<uuid>
make e2e REPO=activity-core NO_REPORT=1

# Legacy entry (prints deprecation, delegates to validate run):
python3 -m e2e_framework ~/activity-core --host $SANDBOXER_HOST
```

## Adding a new repo

1. Create `<repo>/e2e/e2e.yml` (see wise-validator runbook for schema).
2. Add tests under `<repo>/e2e/tests/` or inline `test_command`.
3. Run: `make e2e REPO=<repo>` or `validate run ~/<repo>`.

## Verification

```bash
./scripts/verify-e2e-shim.sh
```

## Troubleshooting

**`validate` / `sandboxer` not found:** Install wise-validator and sand-boxer CLIs.

**CoulombCore compose failures:** Set `SANDBOXER_COMPOSE_CMD=podman-compose`; use
fully qualified image names in compose files.

**Stale sandboxes:** `sandboxer inspect stale` / `sandboxer reap-stale --apply`

## Architecture (current)

```
make e2e REPO=  →  validate run  →  sandboxer create (sand-boxer)
                                 →  health + test (wise-validator)
                                 →  sandboxer destroy
```

Legacy `e2e-framework/sandbox.py` provision path is **not** used by `make e2e`.
