Hi @DiegoFleitas, Thanks for opening this. We are working to improve the visibility of VM credits and provide additional warnings when a Free workspace is approaching the allocated monthly VM credits. While we are working on this, please email [email protected] and we can help you download your work. |

I accidentally left a Node.js Devbox running overnight, which used up all my credits. Now my workspace is frozen, and I can't access or download the code I was experimenting with. I created a template to work around the issue, but the template is locked into the Devbox system, and Sandboxes are not available for it.

Why This is a Problem

A simple export option for templates would resolve this issue entirely.
This experience makes me feel pressured to upgrade to a Pro subscription, which is disappointing. I’d prefer a simple way to download my experiment without restrictions, as that would make the platform feel more user-friendly and reliable for future use.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have used Devboxes in the first place—I would have stuck to JS Sandboxes instead...
Is this deliberate design, or am I missing something?
