Sabline MCP Server
Run code an AI wrote without handing it everything you can reach. Each function declares what it may touch. You grant the run one folder, one host or a number of calls, and the runtime refuses anything else the moment it's tried. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People who work with compiler, effect system and formal verification and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Sabline
Claude Code
claude mcp add gowrishankar-infra-sabline-lang -- npx -y sabline-lang Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"gowrishankar-infra-sabline-lang": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"sabline-lang"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence
Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
repo age created 2026-08-16 - young repo, little track record yet
license MIT - declared in the repository
npm package sabline-lang - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing
registry namespace io.github.gowrishankar-infra is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

06 · Sabline FAQ
What is Sabline?
Run code an AI wrote without handing it everything you can reach. Each function declares what it may touch. You grant the run one folder, one host or a number of calls, and the runtime refuses anything else the moment it's tried. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
Is Sabline still maintained?
Yes - as of 2026-09-30, its last commit was 2026-09-26 and it shipped 9 releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.
How do I install Sabline?
Run `npx -y sabline-lang`. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Sabline run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
