Add durable Strands sandbox support - #1768
Conversation
A timeout is the deterministic outcome the caller's own `timeout` argument asked for, so retrying just re-runs the same hanging command. Under Temporal's unlimited-attempt default this meant SandboxTimeoutError never reached workflow code and the agent could never observe the timeout and adapt.

Every built-in Strands sandbox raises a plain FileNotFoundError from read/write/remove — only list_files raises the SandboxPathNotFoundError subclass — so the old handlers were dead code and a missing path retried forever instead of reaching workflow code. Catch the documented base class instead, and carry the sandbox's own message through so a timeout reports the duration it actually enforced rather than the one the caller requested. Also fix the DockerSandbox import in the README, which is not re-exported from strands.sandbox, and note that the sandbox cache is per worker process.

Now that we are using SandboxWorkflowContext do we need the name?

The name selects the corresponding sandbox defined in StrandsPlugin(sandboxes=...), whereas the context contains the Workflow ID.

Could the factory function handle all sandbox retrievals instead of name map?

The name map is good because it's what we already do for MCP, and it allows us to have multiple sandboxes in the same environment.
