Pause technical work when the calendar frees up
Preserve your progress while plans change.
Trigger
Calendar Event Changes
Triggered when a new calendar event occurs (created, updated, or deleted) in the Outlook calendar.
Action
Pause Sandbox
Tool to pause a running E2B sandbox preserving its filesystem and memory state. Use when you need to temporarily suspend a sandbox while maintaining its state for later resumption. Takes approximately 4 seconds per 1 GiB of RAM to pause. Paused sandboxes can be stored for up to 30 days.
Why this helps
Canceled work blocks leave sandboxes running and consuming attention or resources.
- Preserves in-progress work
- Reduces idle resource use
- Makes rescheduling easier

- 4Choose a report channel and test with one canceled event.
