sandbox-mcp

sandbox-mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alibaba/skill-up. It costs 16 tokens per session (48 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Instructions for checking whether Sandbox MCP can be installed and called from a skill. MCP is a standard way for an AI agent to call external tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a sandbox, run code inside it, and shut it down while verifying the integration.
Why use it?
It helps confirm that the skill can connect to and use the configured sandbox tools.

About the project

skill-up is a tool for evaluating and improving Agent Skills through declarative test cases, multiple agent engines, configurable judges, and structured reports. Developers and agent builders use it locally or in continuous integration to measure skill quality and iterate on failures. The catalogue entries are skills and instructions that can be evaluated or evolved with it.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sandbox-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Sandbox MCP

Use the configured Sandbox MCP tools to create a sandbox, execute code, and shut the sandbox down.

Files

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
