# CodeSandbox

> Use this tool when you need to create, manage, and interact with cloud-based development sandboxes programmatically, solving problems such as automated code generation, AI-powered development environments, and educational platform integration. It provides a stateless interface for sandbox lifecycle management, file system operations, and session handling, accepting inputs like sandboxId and sessionId pairs and outputting VM instances and file system data. Use CodeSandbox to streamline development workflows and provide scalable, on-demand access to cloud-based coding environments.

## Description

A TypeScript-based MCP server that provides stateless access to CodeSandbox SDK operations, enabling AI agents to create, manage, and interact with CodeSandbox VMs through 13 tools for sandbox lifecycle management, file system operations, and session handling. Built by Bruno Amorim with a focus on stateless architecture, the implementation connects per-call using sandboxId+sessionId pairs without maintaining server-side state, supporting both read-only and write modes with configurable VM tiers, hibernation timeouts, and automatic wakeup settings. The server exposes operations for creating sandboxes from templates, resuming/hibernating VMs, reading/writing files, directory listing, and session management with Git integration, making it ideal for developers building AI-powered development environments, automated code generation workflows, or educational platforms that need programmatic access to cloud-based development sandboxes.
