Computer — Claude Code MCP server: files and bash that persist
Gives your agent a private computer: files and a bash shell that survive between runs. Useful when the agent needs to remember project state.
claude mcp add --transport http computer https://gen.pollinations.ai/mcp/computerWhat Computer does
Computer is a remote MCP server from pollinations. It connects over HTTP and hands the agent a working directory plus a bash shell. Whatever the agent leaves there is still there next time.
Setup is a single command, nothing runs locally: the server lives at https://gen.pollinations.ai/mcp/computer. It works with Claude, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Cline and Zed, each with its own connection method.
This is remote storage, not a local sandbox. If your project has secrets or closed-source code that should never leave your machine, keep them out of that directory.
What it helps with
- keep files across agent runs
- run bash commands from the chat
- hold a working directory the agent returns to later
- attach a remote computer to an agent with no local install
- carry intermediate artifacts from one session to the next
Example prompts for the agent
- Save this script to the working directory and run it with bash
- List the files in my computer from last time
- Create
notes.mdand append this session's summary to it

Questions about Computer
How do I install Computer in Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add --transport http computer https://gen.pollinations.ai/mcp/computer. One command, no further configuration.
What does Computer do?
It gives the agent a private computer with files and a bash shell. State persists between runs, so the agent comes back to the same files.
Where are the files stored?
On the remote pollinations server at https://gen.pollinations.ai/mcp/computer, not on your machine. Keep that in mind if you work with closed-source code.
