Colab MCP Server

This is a game changer for agent workflows. The notebook-as-artifact approach is smart: instead of getting code dumped in your terminal, you get something you can actually inspect, share, and pick up where the agent left off. Curious about latency though. When an agent is iterating fast (write cell → execute → read output → write next cell), how does the round-trip feel compared to running locally? And is there a way to pre-warm a Colab runtime so the first cell doesn't eat 10+ seconds on kernel startup?

sandboxing AI agent execution is actually the right move. been running into this with local agents - they can technically run anything and that gets uncomfortable fast. the Colab angle is interesting because you get GPU access for free plus natural isolation. curious whether the MCP protocol adds latency you notice in practice for agentic loops?
