Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing documentation for checkpoints and the -s flag on sprite creation. Determine whether copying an existing sprite is supported and document the supported workflow, including whether parallel worker sprites can be created; done when the question has a clear, verified answer.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I'd like to create a 'golden-main' sprite, with my repo checked out, packages installed, build cached, etc...

and then create copies of this to use as worker sprites... Ideally in parallel.

I thought I might be able to do this via checkpoints, but it doesn't seem possible.

I also tried creating a sprite of an existing one using the -s flag on create... but that didn't do the trick either.

Thanks!
