Sandbox MCP Server

Example Use Cases

• 1

  Spin up ephemeral Docker containers to compile and run user-provided code securely and isolated from the host.

• 2

  Create reproducible development environments by installing packages, saving container state as images, and exporting Dockerfiles.

• 3

  Run multi-language tests or CI-style commands inside isolated containers and then persist or tear down the environment as required.

Description

This server lets users create Docker containers from arbitrary images, write and execute code (multiple languages), install packages, and run commands in isolated environments. It supports persistent containers, saving container state as images, and exporting Dockerfiles to make environments reproducible. The project includes integration guidance for Claude Desktop and provides tooling to create files, run commands, save state, and clean up containers. Security-focused defaults ensure isolation, restricted host access, and automatic cleanup of ephemeral containers.
