## AI overview

Apollo Sandbox now supports locally running subgraphs, allowing developers to load and query subgraph schemas, compare them with registered subgraphs, and run checks for composition and operation compatibility.

## Source excerpt

When you're a developer working on a federated graph, you likely work on a single subgraph locally before publishing it to Apollo Studio as part of the supergraph. We created Apollo Sandbox to give developers a great tool for working on locally-running graphs, but wouldn't it be great if could get the same functionality when working with subgraphs?
