The help was `sed -n '2,9p' "$0"` — the script scraping its own header comment by line number — with no sections, no per-command help, no `-h`, and no `--version`. Worse, parts of the interface it described weren't real: `--force` was parsed and never read, so `claudebox rm work` force-deleted a running box with no confirmation while advertising a flag that implied the bare form was the careful one. - usage()/help_cmd(): NAME/USAGE/COMMANDS/OPTIONS/EXAMPLES/EXIT STATUS, plus a page per command. `claudebox help <cmd>` and `claudebox <cmd> --help`. - `-h`/`--help` anywhere; `--version`/`-V` (VERSION file). - Unknown command → stderr, exit 2, and a did-you-mean by edit distance. - Unknown options are rejected, not swallowed as positionals: `snapshot work --labl x` no longer names the snapshot "--labl". `--` still passes everything through for exec. - `--force` is real: `rm` confirms on a TTY, refuses without one unless forced. BEHAVIOR CHANGE — a scripted `claudebox rm` now needs `--force`. - Exit 2 for usage errors, 1 for runtime failures; accurate per-command usage strings (`exec` no longer omits `-- <cmd...>`). - shellcheck is clean: SC2034 (dead `force`) and SC2015 both gone.

claudebox — trust-less, network-isolated Incus VMs with Claude Code, creds-free.
|
|
|
|
USAGE
|
|
claudebox <command> [<args>] [options]
|
|
|
|
COMMANDS
|
|
new Mint a box: fresh from cloud-init, or --from an existing box/snapshot
|
|
list List your boxes
|
|
info One box: state, type, IP, and its snapshot labels
|
|
shell Open a shell in a box, as the claude user
|
|
exec Run a command inside a box
|
|
snapshot Checkpoint a box (label defaults to manual-<epoch>)
|
|
restore Roll a box back to one of its snapshots
|
|
down Stop a box, keeping its state ('start' resumes it)
|
|
start Start a stopped box
|
|
rm Delete a box and its snapshots — irreversible, and it asks first
|
|
status Deprecated alias for 'list'
|
|
help This help, or 'claudebox help <command>' for one command
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
--name <box> Name for the new box (new)
|
|
--from <src>[/<snap>] Clone from box <src>, or from its snapshot (new)
|
|
--vm Force VM mode: the trust-less target (new)
|
|
--container Force container mode: weaker isolation, (new)
|
|
dev/test only. Default where /dev/kvm is absent.
|
|
--json Emit Incus JSON instead of a table (list, info)
|
|
--force, -f Delete without the confirmation prompt (rm)
|
|
--remote <r> Act on Incus remote <r> (any)
|
|
--help, -h Help; after a command, help for that command
|
|
--version, -V Print the claudebox version
|
|
|
|
Options come after the command: 'claudebox list --json', not 'claudebox --json list'.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
# mint a box and log in inside it — the tool never handles your token
|
|
claudebox new --name work
|
|
claudebox shell work # then: run 'claude', then /login
|
|
|
|
# log in once, reuse forever: checkpoint the authed box, clone from it
|
|
claudebox snapshot work authed
|
|
claudebox new --name feature --from work/authed
|
|
|
|
# what have I got, and what can I clone?
|
|
claudebox list
|
|
claudebox info work
|
|
|
|
# run something without opening a shell
|
|
claudebox exec work -- git -C project pull
|
|
|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
0 ok
|
|
1 it went wrong (Incus failed, no such box, aborted at a prompt)
|
|
2 you asked wrong (unknown command, bad flag, destructive act without --force)
|
|
|
|
THE MODEL
|
|
A box carries NO credentials. You authenticate interactively inside it
|
|
('claude' then /login; 'gh auth login'); claudebox never stores or injects a
|
|
secret. A box reaches the public internet and nothing else — there is no
|
|
inbound path. Destroying a box loses nothing you didn't push.

Mint a box. Without --from, launches a fresh Debian 13 box from cloud-init
|
|
(~10 min cold) with Claude Code installed and NO credentials. With --from,
|
|
clones an existing box or one of its snapshots — Claude login, git creds and
|
|
clones carry over, isolation is preserved.
|
|
|
|
--name <box> Required. The box's name.
|
|
--from <src>[/<snap>] Clone src's live state, or its snapshot <snap>.
|
|
--vm | --container Force the mode. VM is the trust boundary and the
|
|
default wherever /dev/kvm exists; container mode
|
|
(security.nesting=true) is the fallback for hosts
|
|
without nested virt — weaker isolation, dev/test only.

EOF
|

;;

list) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
List the boxes claudebox minted on this host: name, state, type, snapshot count.
|
|
Takes no box — for one box, that's 'claudebox info <box>'.
|
|
|
|
--json Incus's JSON, straight through, for scripting.
|
|
|
|
claudebox list
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
info) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Show one box: state, type, IP address, and — the reason this exists — the
|
|
labels of its snapshots, with the --from line to clone one.
|
|
|
|
--json Incus's JSON, straight through, for scripting.
|
|
|
|
claudebox info work
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
shell) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Open an interactive shell in a running box as the 'claude' user. This is the
|
|
only entry path — there is no SSH and no inbound route to a box.
|
|
|
|
claudebox shell work
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
exec) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Run a command inside a box as the 'claude' user. Everything after -- is passed
|
|
through untouched; the -- is required, or claudebox will read your command's
|
|
flags as its own.
|
|
|
|
claudebox exec work -- git -C project pull
|
|
claudebox exec work -- claude --version
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
snapshot) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Checkpoint a box. Snapshots are how an authenticated box is reused: log in
|
|
once, snapshot, then 'new --from <box>/<label>' as often as you like. The
|
|
label defaults to manual-<epoch>; 'claudebox info <box>' shows the labels you
|
|
have.
|
|
|
|
claudebox snapshot work authed
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
restore) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Roll a box back to one of its snapshots, in place. Anything in the box since
|
|
that snapshot is lost. 'claudebox info <box>' lists the labels.
|
|
|
|
claudebox restore work authed
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
down) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Stop a box. Its disk and state are kept — 'claudebox start' resumes it, Claude
|
|
login and all.
|
|
|
|
claudebox down work
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
start) cat <<'EOF'
|

Start a stopped box.
|
|
|
|
claudebox start work
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
rm) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Delete a box and every snapshot it has. This cannot be undone, so it asks for
|
|
confirmation first; --force (-f) skips the prompt. With no TTY to confirm on
|
|
(a script, a pipe), it refuses unless --force is given.

|
|
claudebox rm work
|
|
claudebox rm work --force
|
|
EOF
|
|
;;
|
|
status) cat <<'EOF'
|
|
Deprecated alias for 'claudebox list'. It ignored the <box> argument it
|
|
advertised, so it was split into 'list' (all boxes) and 'info <box>' (one). It
|
|
still works, and forwards to 'list'.
