[All Platforms][CLI&UX] nemoclaw sandbox has no stop or pause command — only destroy is available

[lyral-commits]

Description

NemoClaw provides no way to temporarily stop or pause a running sandbox. The only options are connect, exec, rebuild, destroy, and recover — there is no stop or pause subcommand. Users who want to free up resources without losing their workspace are forced to either leave the sandbox running or destroy it entirely. nemoclaw stop and nemoclaw start exist but only control the tunnel service (cloudflared), not the sandbox container.

Environment

Device:        MacBook (KGMW04R4VX, Apple M4 Pro)
OS:            macOS (Darwin 25.5.0, arm64)
Architecture:  arm64
Node.js:       v22.22.3
npm:           10.9.8
Docker:        29.5.2
OpenShell CLI: 0.0.44
NemoClaw:      v0.0.69
OpenClaw:      2026.5.27

Steps to Reproduce

1. Onboard a sandbox: nemoclaw onboard --name my-assistant
2. Attempt to stop the sandbox: nemoclaw my-assistant stop
3. Observe the error.
4. Check available actions: nemoclaw my-assistant --help

Expected Result

• nemoclaw <name> stop stops the sandbox container (preserving workspace state).
• nemoclaw <name> start restarts the stopped sandbox.
• Users can free up resources without destroying their workspace.

Actual Result

$ nemoclaw my-assistant stop
  Unknown action: stop
  Valid actions: agent, agents, channels, config, connect, dashboard-url, destroy,
  doctor, download, exec, gateway-token, hosts-add, hosts-list, hosts-remove, logs,
  policy-add, policy-explain, policy-list, policy-remove, rebuild, recover, sessions,
  share, shields, skill, snapshot, status, upload

$ nemoclaw stop
  Warning: Deprecated: 'nemoclaw stop' is now 'nemoclaw tunnel stop'.
  (stops cloudflared tunnel only — sandbox container keeps running)
