🧰 SuperBox

SuperBox (inspired by Docker Hub) helps you discover, deploy, and test MCPs in isolated sandboxes ( Demo Video ). It includes:

• A Python (Click) CLI to initialize metadata, run security scans, push to a registry (R2), search, and configure popular AI clients (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, ChatGPT)
• A Golang (Gin) backend to list/get/create MCP servers with optional pricing and security reports
• A Cloudflare Worker + Durable Object executor that runs MCP servers on demand directly from their Git repositories using a lightweight TypeScript interpreter (Cloudflare Workers blocks eval() and exceeds the WASM bundle size limit, making Pyodide unusable)

Why this project:

• There's no centralized MCP registry to discover all MCPs, and many lack clear usage docs.
• MCPs on our platform pass a 5-step security/quality check (SonarQube, Bandit, GitGuardian) to reduce vulnerabilities and promote best practices.
• Unlike MCPs that run locally on your machine, MCP servers here execute in sandboxed environments and return responses securely.

Key Features

• Central MCP Registry: R2-backed registry with per-server JSON for easy discovery and portability.
• Sandboxed Execution: MCP servers run in Cloudflare Durable Objects and return responses securely. The executor supports requests-based HTTP tools; see cloudflare/README.md for the full scope.
• Security Pipeline (5-step): SonarQube, Bandit, and GitGuardian checks with a unified report.
• One-Command Publish: superbox push scans, discovers tools, and uploads a unified record to R2.
• Client Auto-Config: superbox pull --client cursor|vscode|... writes correct MCP config pointing to the Cloudflare Worker.
• Terminal Runner: superbox run --name <server> starts an interactive prompt against the Cloudflare executor.
• Live Logs: superbox logs --name <server> shows instructions for streaming logs via wrangler tail.
• Tool Discovery: Regex-based discovery across Python code and optional Node package.json definitions.

🌐 API Reference

The HTTP API provides endpoints for server management, authentication, and payments.

For complete API documentation, see: https://superbox.1mindlabs.org/docs/api

🔧 CLI Overview

The SuperBox CLI provides commands for authentication, server management, and testing:

Authentication:

• superbox auth register – Register a new account
• superbox auth login – Log in (email/Google/GitHub)
• superbox auth logout – Log out
• superbox auth status – Check authentication status
• superbox auth refresh – Refresh authentication token

Server Management:

• superbox init – Initialize a new MCP server project
• superbox push – Publish server to registry
• superbox pull – Download and configure server for AI clients
• superbox search – Search for servers in registry
• superbox inspect – View server details and security report
• superbox test – Test server directly from repository (without registry)

Execution & Monitoring:

• superbox run – Run server in interactive mode
• superbox logs – View server execution logs

For detailed CLI documentation and usage examples, see: https://superbox.1mindlabs.org/docs/cli
