How the samples work
1A real recording
Each page replays a run that was recorded on the live service, with its steps, timings, output and exact cost.
2Fake systems, real limits
Samples read fictional systems hosted by Ephemeral. The same permissions, budget and timeout apply as in your own runs.
3Yours to run
Copy the request, or open it in the playground of your account. Nothing runs on your behalf until you sign in and start it.
Build your own disposable agent
Describe the task, choose what it may touch and set a budget. A fresh machine does the work and is destroyed afterwards.
