Pocketenv features
- Multi-provider sandbox support. Run environments on Cloudflare, Deno, Vercel, Daytona, Modal, E2B and more via a single interface.
- Instant disposable environments. Spin up isolated dev environments in seconds that are automatically destroyed when done.
- Git repository loading. Clone and work with any Git repo directly inside the sandbox.
- Secure port and service exposure. Expose ports and services safely without exposing your host network.
- Browser-based VS Code. Launch a full VS Code instance in the browser from within the sandbox.
- Reproducible environment sharing. Create shareable links that reproduce the exact sandbox state for collaborators.
- Point-in-time backups. Rollback a sandbox to a previous state using built-in backup snapshots.
- CLI installation. Install Pocketenv via a single curl command for quick local access.
Synapse MCP features

- AST-Aware Minification. Compresses code context to structural signatures, cutting token usage by up to 60%.
- Safe Write Simulation. Validates edits in memory and rolls back automatically if they break the build (Pro).
- Impact & Caller Analysis. Shows all callers and dependencies of a symbol in under 500 ms (Pro).
- Crash Stack Resolution. Maps stack traces directly to the AST graph for instant root-cause analysis (Pro).
- Test Intelligence. Identifies coverage gaps and suggests precise test targets without running the suite (Pro).
