About alfonsograziano/node-code-sandbox-mcp

A Node.js-based Model Context Protocol server that creates disposable Docker containers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code. It provides a sandboxed environment for running untrusted scripts without persistent side effects.

Best for

Developers building AI-powered code execution or sandboxing tools that need a lightweight, containerized JavaScript runtime

Use cases

  • Run user-submitted JavaScript snippets safely in an AI assistant workflow
  • Test JavaScript code in isolation during development or debugging sessions
  • Execute dynamic code from external sources without affecting the host system

Notes

153 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2025-11-24.

Pros

  • Disposable containers ensure clean state after each execution
  • Simple MCP interface integrates easily with AI tools and assistants
  • Lightweight and focused on JavaScript execution

Cons

  • Requires Docker to be installed and running on the host
  • Only supports JavaScript code execution, no other languages
  • Network access and resource limits depend on container configuration

Security check static checks

90 out of 100

Reads what is published about the server: package advisories, licence, secrets in the documented setup and tool permissions. Nothing is installed or run, so this is not a security assessment. Checked by edna-static-v1. What it checks

  • Medium The repository has no licence file, so nobody has been granted the right to use, copy or change the code.
  • Note No published npm or PyPI package of this repository was found, so package advisories were not checked.
  • Note The lab has not recorded this server's tool list yet, so tool permissions were not checked.
Tool permissions (3)
  • FILES_DIR, environment variable it asks for
  • SANDBOX_CPU_LIMIT, environment variable it asks for
