# Boot your computer from a sandbox image

> Attach the sandbox image to the caller's computer, which re-provisions it from the pinned image (installed files are wiped). The image must have a `ready` build, and the computer provider must match the build's. Bodyless. Guest callers are denied (a write).

openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: MCPJam API
  version: 1.0.0-preview
  description: >-
    Programmatic access to MCP servers saved in your MCPJam projects — live
    diagnostics (validate, inspect, export) and operations: call tools, render
    prompts, run eval suites asynchronously and poll their results, and import
    OAuth tokens.


    **The API is in preview**: the surface may change while we finish the
    design. Error `code` values are stable; error `message` strings are not.
    Write clients that ignore unknown response fields.
