What is the E2B MCP Server?
Connect your AI agent to E2B — the leading sandbox platform for AI code execution, trusted by OpenAI, Anthropic, and thousands of AI companies.
What you can do
- Create Sandboxes — Spin up isolated Linux environments in ~150ms. Each sandbox is a Firecracker microVM with its own kernel, filesystem, and network
- List Sandboxes — Monitor all active sandbox environments, their templates, and resource usage
- Kill Sandboxes — Terminate environments when done to release resources and reduce costs
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your E2B API key ($100 free credits to start)
- Your agent can now create and manage isolated code execution environments
Who is this for?
- AI Agent Developers — give agents a safe place to execute generated code without risking your infrastructure
- Data Science Teams — run analysis scripts in isolated environments with guaranteed reproducibility
- EdTech Platforms — let students execute code in sandboxed environments with full isolation
Built-in capabilities (3)
The sandbox is an isolated Linux VM that starts in ~150ms. Use templates like "base" (default), "python3", or "node" for pre-configured environments. Default timeout is 300 seconds. Create a new isolated cloud sandbox for running code securely. Each sandbox is a Firecracker microVM with its own filesystem
The sandbox and its filesystem contents are permanently deleted. Terminate a running sandbox by its ID
Useful for monitoring active environments and managing resources. List all currently active sandboxes in your E2B account
Why Windsurf?
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple E2B tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 3 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

Frequently asked questions
How secure are E2B sandboxes?
E2B sandboxes run as dedicated Firecracker microVMs — the same technology used by AWS Lambda and Fargate. Each sandbox has its own Linux kernel, filesystem, and network stack, providing hardware-level isolation. Code running in a sandbox cannot access your host system, other sandboxes, or any external resources unless explicitly configured.
What programming languages are supported?
E2B supports Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, R, Java, and Bash out of the box. You can also create custom sandbox templates with any pre-installed tools, libraries, or system dependencies. The base template provides a full Ubuntu Linux environment where you can install anything via apt or pip.
How does E2B pricing work?
E2B uses usage-based pricing billed per second of compute time. The free Hobby plan includes a one-time $100 credit (no credit card required), up to 20 concurrent sandboxes, and 1-hour maximum session length. The Pro plan starts at $150/month with 24-hour sessions and higher concurrency limits.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
Server not connecting
Check Settings → MCP for the server status. Try toggling it off and on.
