Integration

E2B integration

Cloud sandboxes for AI code execution. Run AI-generated code securely in isolated environments with full filesystem, terminal, and runtime support. Perfect for AI coding assistants, code interpreters, and automated development workflows.

Connect E2B How integrations work

Ask it in chat

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in E2B.Built from the 22 E2B tools below, on the connection you add once.

Common E2B use cases

Extend sandbox lifetime
AI code execution
Clean up resources
Preserve work state
Check sandbox status
Check volume details
Debug sandbox issues
Continue previous work
Monitor resource usage
Clean up unused volumes

What you can do with E2B

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Sandbox, 13 operations

connect_sandboxConnect sandboxPOSTConnects to a sandbox, resuming it if paused, and extending its TTL.

get_sandbox_metricsGet sandbox metricsGETRetrieves resource usage metrics for a sandbox.
kill_sandboxKill sandboxDELETEImmediately terminates a running sandbox and frees resources.
list_sandboxesList sandboxesGETLists all running sandboxes for the authenticated team.
list_sandboxes_v2List sandboxes v2GETLists all sandboxes with pagination and state filtering (v2).
pause_sandboxPause sandboxPOSTPauses a sandbox, preserving its state for later resumption.
refresh_sandboxRefresh sandboxPOSTRefreshes a sandbox, extending its time to live.
set_sandbox_timeoutSet sandbox timeoutPOSTSets or updates the timeout duration for a running sandbox.

Volume, 4 operations

create_volumeCreate volumePOSTCreates a new persistent volume.
delete_volumeDelete volumeDELETEDeletes a persistent volume permanently.
get_volumeGet volumeGETRetrieves details of a persistent volume.
list_volumesList volumesGETLists all persistent volumes for the team.

Template, 3 operations

delete_templateDelete templateDELETEDeletes a sandbox template permanently.
get_templateGet templateGETRetrieves template details and build history.
list_templatesList templatesGETLists all available sandbox templates.

Snapshot, 2 operations

create_snapshotCreate snapshotPOSTCreates a persistent snapshot from a running sandbox.
list_snapshotsList snapshotsGETLists all snapshots for the team.

Use E2B from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect E2B in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its E2B operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step

How to connect E2B

Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
Connect E2B once
Add your E2B connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
