The hosted Deepnote MCP server now lets agents choose a project's image and control its machine. This documents the new tools in the skills so agents use them, and so the nightly drift check stays green.

• New tools: list_environments, list_machine_types, get_machine, start_machine, stop_machine, restart_machine, update_machine
• Changed tools: environmentId on create_project and update_project, machineType on create_run (detached runs), and the environment in get_project. The update_project entry also mentions streamlitAppApiAccessEnabled, which it was missing.
• Skills:
  • deepnote-mcp: tool catalogue, a safety rule about lost kernel state, and a capability boundary that no longer excludes environments and hardware
  • deepnote-runs: a Machines section on sizing detached runs and managing the project machine for live runs
  • deepnote-workspace: environment and machine state during project inspection
• README, manifests: capabilities, prompts, troubleshooting, and the plugin bumped to 0.5.0

All 41 tools in the deepnote-internal develop manifest are now mentioned in a skill, and claude plugin validate --strict passes for both manifests.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Deepnote plugin documentation now covers project environment selection and machine management. It describes machine status, sizing, lifecycle operations, and machine selection for detached runs. It also documents restart requirements and kernel-state effects for machine or environment changes.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Suggested reviewers: equiet

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 1d809

These instructions could omit useful machine details, start a machine without user intent, or discard restorable kernel state after shutdown. The risks are bounded to documentation-guided workflows, so the change is low-risk, but correcting the guidance before merging is advisable.

Review comments at @plugins/deepnote/skills/deepnote-mcp/SKILL.md:
- Around line 77-78: Update the machine-use guidance in the Deepnote MCP skill
to require a user request before standalone machine startup, while allowing
startup when needed for a user-requested live run. Preserve the existing
guidance about machine time, kernel-state loss, and consent for stopping,
restarting, and changing machine or environment settings.

Review comments at @plugins/deepnote/skills/deepnote-runs/SKILL.md:
- Line 23: Update the live-run guidance to check for Restore variables after a
stop or idle shutdown before calling start_machine or running cells, restore the
saved state before executing any cell, and rerun setup only when restoration is
unavailable.

Review comments at @plugins/deepnote/skills/deepnote-workspace/SKILL.md:
- Line 19: Update the `get_machine` description in the active-notebooks guidance
to say it reports machine state, not open editor sessions; avoid claiming it
shows only whether the machine is running.

@dinohamzic I checked #20. The two valid review findings are addressed, and I withdrew the third. All review threads are resolved, and the reported CodeRabbit check passed. I see no remaining review blocker.

GitHub still shows CHANGES_REQUESTED from my earlier review. I approve the current changes.
