Run In selector

← All terms · Orbit-internal concepts

Also called Run In: Live | Sandbox

A radio in the New Prompt modal letting you choose whether to queue against your live Orbit instance or the Server Sandbox sidecar.

What it is

The Run In selector appears in the New Prompt modal when a Server Sandbox is running. Default is Live; selecting Sandbox queues the prompt to port 4856 instead. Disabled (with a hint) when no sandbox is running. The selector also exists on approval cards as part of Sandbox Sessions integration.

When you would use it

You use the Run In selector whenever you have both a live and sandbox instance and want to choose where a specific prompt runs.

Common operations

  • Choosing live vs. sandbox execution per prompt
  • Pre-arming the modal to Sandbox via "Queue to Sandbox..." button
