Containarium v0.72.0

The open-source, self-hostable, agent-native sandbox.

Binaries

Three binaries ship in this release:

Binary	Where it runs	What it does
containarium	The host (and your laptop, for the CLI)	The platform daemon + CLI. create, list, expose-port, ssh-config, etc.
mcp-server	Your laptop	The platform MCP — outside-the-box admin (create_container, list_containers, expose_port, list_backends). Wire it into Claude Code / Cursor.
agent-box	Inside each Containarium container	The in-the-box MCP — shell_exec, read_file, write_file, etc. Reached over stdio, typically via SSH.

MCP client setup

Wire the platform MCP into Claude Code (~/.claude.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "containarium": {
      "command": "/usr/local/bin/mcp-server",
      "env": {
        "CONTAINARIUM_SERVER_URL": "http://your-host:8080",
        "CONTAINARIUM_JWT_TOKEN": "<your-token>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Wire agent-box for in-the-box file/shell ops:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "containarium-box": {
      "command": "ssh",
      "args": ["user@your-box", "agent-box"]
    }
  }
}
