New features, improvements, and fixes to the Modbox API and platform

Enhancements

Cleaner SDK method names

All API routes now have explicit operation IDs, resulting in significantly cleaner auto-generated SDK method names.

Before:

1// TypeScript (old)
2client.sandboxStatusSandboxesStatusTaskIdGet(taskId)
3client.sandboxProvisionSandboxesProvisionPost(payload)

After:

1// TypeScript (new)
2client.getSandboxStatus(taskId)
3client.provisionSandbox(payload)

The same improvement applies to the Python SDK — methods now use readable snake_case names like provision_sandbox, destroy_sandbox, wait_for_sandbox, get_sandbox, list_sandboxes, list_sandbox_images, create_workspace, add_workspace_member, and so on.

A full list of the new method names is available in the API Reference.
