Add description frontmatter, name timeoutMs/timeout in the timeout prose, and include the Python create_snapshot() name in the comparison table. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The docs consistently call the operation snapshotting; "checkpoint" only appears as an informal noun. Align the Forking page (and its Snapshots cross-link) with that vocabulary. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Adds a new Forking docs page (
docs/sandbox/fork.mdx) documenting thesandbox.fork()/Sandbox.fork(sandboxId)SDK methods from e2b-dev/E2B#1554: checkpoint a running sandbox in place and boot up to 100 copies from it. The page covers the fork flow, single and multi-fork examples in JS and Python, per-fork failure handling, fork timeout, a Forking vs. Snapshots comparison, and use cases. Also registers the page in the Sandbox nav group indocs.jsonand cross-links it from the Snapshots use cases. Note: the SDK PR is still open and the fork endpoint (e2b-dev/infra#3202) is not deployed yet, so this should merge once those land.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
