What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
spawn(cmd, [url], { stdio: "ignore", detached: true }).unref();
: path.join(folder.uri.fsPath, s.outputDir);
Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.
