Google has released an open-source Colab MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server that lets any MCP-compatible AI agent—such as Gemini CLI, Claude Code, or custom agents—programmatically control Google Colab notebooks. Instead of manually copying code between a local terminal and Colab, developers can now dispatch agents to create cells, write and execute Python code, generate visualizations, and manage the full notebook lifecycle in the cloud. Setup requires git, Python, and the uv package manager, plus a short JSON config snippet. The project is open source on GitHub and welcomes community contributions.
