AI Lab creates lightweight LXD containers pre-wired to use AI services running on your host (lemonade-server, ollama). Each container shares your home directory, keeping installed software isolated from the rest of your system.
Use the CLI to create and manage sandboxes:
ailab new mybox --install openclaw ailab run mybox ailab list
Or use the web management interface — a browser-based dashboard with live progress, an in-browser terminal, and log tailing. It runs as a background daemon and is accessible at http://127.0.0.1:11500 by default.
Configure the host and port:
snap set ailab web.host=0.0.0.0 snap set ailab web.port=11500
Connect to an AI Lab Cloud hub for remote access:
snap set ailab cloud.host=https://cloud.example.com snap set ailab cloud.token=<token from hub dashboard> snap set ailab cloud.user=<your GitHub username> snap set ailab cloud.device-id=<device name shown in dashboard> snap set ailab cloud.ports=11500,18789

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
sudo yum install epel-release
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install AI Lab, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install ailab --edge
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
