### Description (declared)

# Local Notebook Agent Editor

## Demo

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e52a4ee7-3bb2-4953-a515-4c32f8742c6f

A local FastAPI + React editor for working on Jupyter notebooks with scoped AI
agent editing. You open a local `.ipynb` file (or a project folder), edit and
execute cells, and save in place. Each agent turn has a **scope**: in
**Blocking** mode the agent may only rewrite the source of cells you explicitly
mark editable; in **Trusted** mode the whole notebook is editable and the agent
may add, delete, reorder, and retype cells. Either way the backend validates and
applies (or rejects) every change — the agent never mutates your notebook
directly — and every change is reviewable as a diff and undoable.

Everything runs on your machine and binds to loopback only. Read
[Security Limits](#security-limits) before using it with untrusted notebooks.

## Install

You work in the browser tab. An MCP client — Claude Code, for instance — starts
the editor and opens it for you. [Running it
locally](#run-it-locally-instead) is for working on the editor itself.

Install it into the environment your notebooks run in, so your cells keep the
packages they already have:

```bash
/abs/path/to/.venv/bin/pip install notebook-editor-mcp

claude mcp add agent-notebook -- \
  /abs/path/to/.venv/bin/notebook-editor-mcp \
  --workspace-root /abs/path/to/project
```

That environment is the one your cells run in. Left alone, the editor executes
them wherever it was installed — which is the right answer here and the wrong
one for `uvx` or `pipx`, where a notebook opening with `import pandas` fails on
its first cell.

So to keep the editor out of your project instead, point `--kernel-python` at
the environment your cells need:

```bash
claude mcp add agent-notebook -- \
  uvx --from notebook-editor-mcp notebook-editor-mcp \
  --workspace-root /abs/path/to/project \
  --kernel-python /abs/path/to/.venv/bin/python
```

`--workspace-root` confines the editor to one directory. Us…
