## python-interpreter-mcp: A MCP server to run scripts
## Overview
A lightweight, experimental MCP server designed to execute arbitrary Python scripts in a structured and reproducible environment. It leverages **[uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv)** to run isolated code snippets through subprocesses.
### Tools
- `run_script`
- Runs the given script with `uv run script.py`.
- Input:
- `code`(str): Script to be run
- Return: The stdout of the given script.
## Configuration
### Usage with OpenAI Agents SDK
```python
async with MCPServerStdio(
params={
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["python-interpreter-mcp"],
}
) as server
...
```
### Usage with Claude Desktop
Add this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
"mcpServers": {
"interpreter": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["python-interpreter-mcp"]
}
}
```
## How it works
- A script string is received by the MCP tool `run_script`.
- A hidden folder is created in cwd, and the script is saved as a `.py` file inside it.
- The script is then executed using `uv run`, which ensures dependency isolation.
- The stdout of the script is captured and returned as the response.
## Usage Warnings
**This project is in a very early stage of development.**
### ⚠️ Important notes
- It executes arbitrary Python code, which means it can run anything — including malicious or destructive commands.
- Use only in trusted, sandboxed environments.
- You should always validate, guardrail, or restrict inputs when wiring this into an LLM.
