# E2B MCP Server (Python)
A Model Context Protocol server for running code in a secure sandbox by [E2B](https://e2b.dev).
## Development
Install dependencies:
```
uv install
```
## Installation
To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:
On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"e2b-mcp-server": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["e2b-mcp-server"],
"env": { "E2B_API_KEY": "${e2bApiKey}" }
}
}
}
```
### Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:
```
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector \
uv \
--directory . \
run \
e2b-mcp-server \
```
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
