Sandbox Env MCP

Overview

Sandbox Env MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that provides AI agents with a persistent Docker or SSH sandbox environment. It enables shell execution, file operations, and maintains an audit log of all actions, giving AI assistants safe, isolated access to system commands and file management within controlled boundaries.

The server runs locally as the Python package sandbox-env-mcp, installed via uvx sandbox-env-mcp. It communicates over stdio and requires no authentication to get started. The latest release is v0.3.1, distributed under the AGPL-3.0 license with source code available at hs3434/sandbox-env-mcp on GitHub.

Sandbox Env MCP belongs in the AI & Agents category and integrates with all major MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this server, claim your listing to earn the Verified badge and ensure the information stays up to date.
