celesto sandbox shell opens an interactive shell inside a sandbox. On recent Linux images it uses the Celesto guest agent for fast terminal access; when that is unavailable, use celesto sandbox ssh for a regular SSH session.

How it behaves
If the sandbox is stopped or newly created, Celesto starts it first. If the sandbox is paused, Celesto resumes it. If the guest agent supports terminal access, the shell opens over the guest-agent terminal stream. Usecelesto sandbox ssh when you need SSH-specific behavior such as a custom user, custom key, or SSH tooling.
