docs: separate Agent SDK from Hosted Agents in the nav#358
Merged
Conversation
The SDK agent docs (sandbox.agent.*) existed but were orphaned from the nav — readers landing on "Agents" only saw the hosted Cores/Channels world (Hermes, OpenClaw) and had no way to discover the in-sandbox agent API. Promote those pages into a dedicated "Agent SDK" group, rename the existing group to "Hosted Agents", and cross-link the two overviews so each points at the other.

Evaluating agent experience using 2027.dev · View dashboard
The "long-lived vs single task" framing was inaccurate: the hosted API also runs ephemeral, one-task-per-sandbox sessions (POST /v1/agents/:id/sessions). Reframe the split around who manages the runtime — SDK-driven in-sandbox Claude sessions vs platform-managed agent definitions reached via persistent instances or ephemeral sessions.

What
The docs for the in-sandbox agent API (
sandbox.agent.startfrom@opencomputer/sdk) already exist —agents/overview,agents/tools,agents/events,agents/multi-turn— but they were orphaned: not referenced anywhere indocs.json, so unreachable from the sidebar. A reader landing on "Agents" only saw the hosted world (Cores/Hermes/OpenClaw, Channels, REST) and would conclude that's the only way to run an agent.This surfaced while building the
demo-agent-triagedemo, which is built entirely onsandbox.agent.startand couldn't find supporting docs.Changes
docs.json— split the single "Agents" nav group into two top-level groups:agents/overview,agents/tools,agents/events,agents/multi-turn(the in-sandbox agent API)agents/overview.mdx— retitled (H1 "Run an agent in a sandbox", sidebar "Overview"); added a callout distinguishing the SDK path from Hosted Agents, with a cross-link.agents-api/overview.mdx— mirror callout linking back to the Agent SDK.No content was deleted; existing pages are just regrouped and cross-linked.
