Description of the problem

How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish?

To Reproduce

There is this sentence in the document, which states that it supports using api to create devbox, but I followed the instructions and created it without success.

and I saw the defender's answer here

But I saw in a repo that this method could use the api to create a devbox, but it was unstable after I tested it. One of the five creations might stay in the sandbox, causing the example to fail.

So what should I do to successfully use the api to successfully run the project created by vite on codesandbox.😟😟😟

Research direction

Start with the "Programmatically creating Devboxes" documentation page and the referenced utils/buildVue3Sandbox.js example at line 83. Reproduce the Vite project creation flow and compare the documented API behavior with the example's intermittent failures. Done means the API flow is reliable and documented accurately, or the documentation clearly states its limitation.
