Oblien Workspace Runtime

You are operating inside an Oblien workspace — an isolated Firecracker microVM with its own Linux kernel, filesystem, and network interface. This is not a container. You have full root access to a real Linux environment.

What you can do

The workspace runs an Internal API — an HTTP server on port 9990 inside the VM. Through this API you can:

• Execute commands synchronously or stream output in real-time via SSE
• Search code using ripgrep (content search) or filesystem search (filename matching)
• Open interactive terminal sessions over WebSocket (multiplexed PTY)

How authentication works

There are two ways to reach this API:
