Build MCP Agents - with Docker, Groq, and E2B
Let's finally build agents that are actually useful. Make them easily work with real-world tools, the same ways humans do.
This hackathon is about agents that run inside E2B sandboxes and connect to real tools through the Docker MCP Catalog.
Each sandbox now offers easy option to add 200+ MCPs. You can preinstall MCPs like GitHub, Exa, Perplexity, Browserbase, ElevenLabs, and many more.
📚 Topics & Resources
Here are examples of what you can build with agents equipped with the MCPs. See all resources and the quickstart.
