About SebastianGilPinzon/colab-mcp
A fixed and enhanced fork of Google's Colab MCP that makes tools visible at startup, adds GPU control, and supports Windows. It resolves the common 'Disconnected' error that plagues the original implementation.
Best for
Developers who need a reliable Colab MCP fork with GPU control and Windows compatibility
Use cases
- Run AI model training scripts on Colab GPUs from a local MCP client
- Manage Colab notebook execution with GPU toggling and startup tool visibility
- Develop and test MCP integrations on Windows without disconnection issues
Notes
6 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-06-19. Licensed Apache-2.0.
Pros
- Fixes the persistent 'Disconnected' bug from the original Colab MCP
- Adds GPU control and Windows support missing from the upstream fork
- Tools are visible immediately at startup, improving developer workflow
Cons
- Very small community with only 6 GitHub stars and limited documentation
- Depends on Google Colab's infrastructure which can change without notice
- No active maintenance guarantees beyond the current fork state
