It's working now, thanks. While I've got your attention, it was a little bit of effort to wrap my head around the APIs when `sandbox create` uses --root AND/or --volume, `snapshot create` uses positional args <volumeIdOrSlug> <snapshotSlug>, and `volumes create` uses --from
I know that each of these things is subtly different, but they're similar enough that the bootable snapshot creation workflow (which I expect is a common one) has some sharp edges, since you have to interact with all three APIs at the same time.
Also, the CLI doesn't give a useful error when you try to create a snapshot from a currently attached volume.
Finally, updating a snapshot is more steps than I'd ideally like. I would much rather be able to make changes in a sandbox with a snapshot root and have them persist as a new snapshot. I kind of get why this isn't currently the case, but The volume/snapshot dance feels (for my usecase) like it's missing some abstraction.
That said, now that I've got a snapshot set up it's a nice experience. I've got an alias for `deno sandbox create --root dev --ssh` and I can `claude` in yolo mode without much fear.

Congratulations to the team :)
