Configuration in `settings.json`: ```json { "mcp": { "inputs": [], "servers": { "mcp-server-code-runner": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "--rm", "-i", "formulahendry/mcp-server-code-runner" ] } } } } ``` ### Installing via Smithery > **_NOTE:_** This will run Code Runner MCP Server in a remote Container environment hosted by Smithery. To install Code Runner MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@formulahendry/mcp-server-code-runner): ```bash npx -y @smithery/cli install @formulahendry/mcp-server-code-runner --client claude ``` ### npx issue on Widnows On Windows, [MCP servers may fail to connect with `npx`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/issues/40). You could try below two workarounds: #### use bunx 1. Install [Bun](https://bun.sh/docs/installation). 2. In configuration, change `npx` with `bunx`. #### use cmd Below is VS Code configuration in `settings.json`: ```json { "mcp": { "inputs": [], "servers": { "mcp-server-code-runner": { "command": "cmd", "args": [ "/c", "npx", "-y", "mcp-server-code-runner" ], } } } } ``` ## Usage Before using Code Runner MCP Server, please make sure interpreter or compiler of the programming language you want to run is set in `PATH` environment variable. Try below prompts in the application which has configured Code Runner MCP Server: * `Run the JavaScript Code: console.log(5+6)` * `Where is temporary folder in my OS? Use run-code tool` * `How many CPUs do I have in my machine? Use run-code tool`   ## Build your own MCP Server Want to build your own MCP Server?
