HackerEarth MCP tools (2, 1 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • list_languages

    Returns the list of programming languages HackerEarth can execute, with the exact identifiers to pass to run_code. Use this when you are unsure which language name to use, or when the user asks what languages are available. Takes no inputs.

  • run_codewrite action

    Executes a snippet of code on HackerEarth's cloud servers in any of 24 languages. Use when the user wants to test code, see real output instead of predicted output, or check whether a program works. Needs the code and the language identifier, call list_languages if unsure of the exact name. Returns the program's printed output and any error messages.

mcp-name: io.github.pratham-jain33/hackerearth-mcp

Give any AI assistant a code run button.

Unofficial community project. Not made by, endorsed by, or affiliated with HackerEarth. You bring your own free HackerEarth API key.

Why

AI assistants are great at writing code and terrible at knowing whether it works. They guess. This server plugs into any MCP-compatible assistant (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and more) and lets it actually run code in 24 programming languages on HackerEarth's sandboxed servers, then read the real output. No local toolchains to install. Nothing untrusted ever touches your machine.

Tools

Quickstart

1. Get a free HackerEarth API key

Register a client in the HackerEarth developer dashboard to receive a client-secret. The free tier includes a generous request quota.

2. Install

No cloning needed:

uvx hackerearth-mcp

or with pip:

pip install hackerearth-mcp

From source instead:

git clone https://github.com/pratham-jain33/hackerearth-mcp
cd hackerearth-mcp
python -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -e .

3. Connect your assistant

Claude Desktop config file:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claudedesktopconfig.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hackerearth": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["hackerearth-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HACKEREARTH_KEY": "paste-your-client-secret-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

From source, point at your checkout instead:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hackerearth": {
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/hackerearth-mcp/.venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/hackerearth-mcp/server.py"],
      "env": {
        "HACKEREARTH_KEY": "paste-your-client-secret-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop, then try: "run this Python program and tell me what it prints: print(6 7)"*

Configuration

How it works

(This section is written by the project's author.)

  1. You ask the assistant to run some code.
  2. The assistant calls run_code with the code and the language.
  3. The server sends it to HackerEarth with your key and gets back a tracking token.
  4. The server polls HackerEarth until the run finishes.
  5. HackerEarth runs the code in a sealed sandbox on their machines.
  6. The server hands the output back to the assistant, which explains it to you.
