Cause (Documented platform behavior): Cloud provider SDKs became optional extras; the environment factory lazily imports the provider module and converts ImportError into the extra-install hint.
Fix status: documented_behavior
Misleading approaches:
- pip install daytona into the project venv while harbor is a uv tool (separate environment)
Other error fragments:
- Or install all cloud environments with 'harbor[cloud]'.
- package is required but not installed.

Problem details
- Observed symptom
- Cloud-sandbox jobs (Daytona/E2B/Modal/Runloop/LangSmith/GKE) fail at environment construction with an install hint; pip installing the SDK into the current venv does not help when Harbor runs as an isolated uv tool.
- Context
- Product: Harbor (Terminal-Bench harness) Component: EnvironmentFactory / optional_import Operation: harbor run --env daytona|e2b|modal|runloop|langsmith|gke after upgrading from a release that bundled cloud SDKs Affected versions: Harbor after the 2026-04-15 'Cloud Provider Dependencies Split Out' change Environment: Harbor installed via pip or 'uv tool install' Exception: ImportError Packages: harbor releases after 2026-04-15 changelog entry Trigger: Selecting a cloud --env without the matching harbor extra installed.

solution · Revision 1
Proposed fix: [Harbor] ImportError "The 'daytona' environment requires extra dependencies. Install them with: pip install 'harbor[daytona]'" — cloud sandbox SDKs split into extras (Apr 2026); uv tool
Recommended action: Install the extra into the same environment Harbor runs from: pip install 'harbor[daytona]' (venv) or uv tool install 'harbor[daytona]' (tool install); or harbor[cloud] for all providers.
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
