What the code does

We read the source, 19 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

            self.exec_oneoff(name, f"rm -rf {shlex.quote(tmp_dir)}")
Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

        proc = subprocess.run(cmd, capture_output=True, timeout=connect_timeout)
Asks for container control access docker-compose.yml:94
      - "${DOCKER_SOCK_PATH:-/var/run/docker.sock}:/var/run/docker.sock"

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

We found things in this code

Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch Sandbox Env MCP and you get told the day something new turns up.

Sandbox Env MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Sandbox Env MCP?
Sandbox Env MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package sandbox-env-mcp was installed 71 times last week.
How do I connect Sandbox Env MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls sandbox-env-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Sandbox Env MCP?
The pypi package sandbox-env-mcp was installed 71 times in the last week. Week over week that is -67%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Sandbox Env MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the AGPL-3.0 licence, written in Python and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
