Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Daytona (Dev Workspaces) MCP Server?
Connect your Daytona account to any AI agent to orchestrate cloud-based development environments through natural language. Daytona provides standardized, ephemeral sandboxes that can be provisioned and managed on demand.
What you can do
- Sandbox Orchestration — List, create, start, stop, and delete sandboxes with specific CPU, memory, and disk configurations.
- Snapshot Management — Create and manage snapshots to preserve environment states or activate them for new sandboxes using
create_snapshotandactivate_snapshot. - API Key Control — Manage your authentication keys directly, including listing and creating new access tokens via
list_api_keysandcreate_api_key. - Resource Scaling — Dynamically resize sandbox resources (vCPU, RAM, Disk) to match your workload requirements using
resize_sandbox. - Volume & Storage — Inspect and manage persistent volumes and snapshots for your dev environments.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Daytona API Key
- Start managing your dev infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — Automate the lifecycle of test environments and sandboxes.
- Software Developers — Spin up fresh coding environments without leaving the chat or IDE.
- QA Teams — Quickly recover sandboxes from error states or fork existing environments for debugging.

Frequently asked questions
Can I change the resources of an existing sandbox?
Yes, you can use the resize_sandbox tool to update the CPU, memory, or disk size of a specific sandbox by providing its ID or name.
How do I create a new environment with a specific Docker image?
Use the create_sandbox tool and provide the image parameter with the desired Docker or OCI image name.
What should I do if a sandbox is in an error state?
You can use the recover_sandbox tool to attempt to restore a sandbox from an error state back to a functional one.
How does LangChain connect to MCP servers?
Use langchain-mcp-adapters to create an MCP client. LangChain discovers all tools and wraps them as native LangChain tools compatible with any agent type.
Which LangChain agent types work with MCP?
All agent types including ReAct, OpenAI Functions, and custom agents work with MCP tools. The tools appear as standard LangChain tools after the adapter wraps them.
Can I trace MCP tool calls in LangSmith?
Yes. All MCP tool invocations appear as traced steps in LangSmith, showing input parameters, response payloads, latency, and token usage.
