Counts only AI calls made on the workspace's keys through the node's AI proxy, not compute or storage. The total is kept in the node daemon's memory, so a node daemon restart starts it again from zero. Reaching it refuses further AI calls (402 `zode_spend_cap`) and sends `spend.cap_reached`; the sandbox keeps running. parent_sandbox_id: type: - string - 'null' created_at: type: string format: date-time updated_at: type: string format: date-time deleted_at: type: - string - 'null' format: date-time browser: type: boolean description: Chrome with CDP is on. desktop: type: boolean description: The Linux desktop is on. feature_error: type: string description: >- Only on a create or fork whose browser or desktop could not be switched on; the sandbox was made. created_by: description: >- The member who created or forked it; null for sandboxes made before this was recorded. oneOf: - type: 'null' - type: object required: - member_id - email properties: member_id: type: string example: mem_ilvsd743b36wqi26 email: type: string description: Kept after the member leaves the workspace.
