The following table summarizes the agents that run in OpenShell sandboxes. All agent sandbox images are maintained in the [OpenShell Community](https://github.com/NVIDIA/OpenShell-Community) repository. Agents in the base image are auto-configured when passed as the trailing command to `openshell sandbox create`.
