ipybox

# Installation ## Python package Install ipybox using `pip`: ```bash pip install ipybox ``` or `uv`: ```bash uv add ipybox ``` ## MCP server ipybox can also be run as an [MCP server](mcpserver.md) using `uvx`: ```bash uvx ipybox --workspace /path/to/workspace ``` See the [MCP server documentation](mcpserver.md) for configuration details. ## sandbox-runtime To use ipybox's [sandboxing](sandbox.md) features, you need to install Anthropic's [sandbox-runtime](https://github.com/anthropic-experimental/sandbox-runtime) separately. This provides the `srt` command for IPython kernel and MCP server isolation. Install via npm: ```bash npm install -g @anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime@0.0.21 ``` ### Mac OS On Mac OS, `sandbox-runtime` requires `ripgrep`. Install it using Homebrew: ```bash brew install ripgrep ``` No other dependencies are needed on Mac OS, as `sandbox-runtime` uses the native `sandbox-exec` command for sandboxing. ### Linux On Linux, install the required system packages: ```bash apt-get install bubblewrap socat ripgrep ``` !!! info [Sandboxing](sandbox.md) with `srt` currently doesn't work with ipybox on Linux, a fix is work in progress. You can still use ipybox on Linux with `sandbox=False`, or run the ipybox [MCP server](mcpserver.md) as a Docker container.
