Description of the problem

When I try to access, https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/options-strategy-builder-cl57kc, I get these errors

Failed to initialize VS Code Server: Error: Dev container installation failed. We've opened VS Code in web-only in the meantime

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure at the linked Devbox URL and inspect the reported VS Code Server and dev container installation errors. Done means the Devbox opens with a usable Terminal instead of falling back to web-only VS Code, with the relevant failure covered by a regression check if the project has one.
