What the code does

We read the source, 4 d ago · rules 995398eba69f

Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

Claims read-only, but the code runs commands omniclip_rag/extensions/runtimes/tika_runtime.py:290, omniclip_rag/process_utils.py:29, omniclip_rag/ui_next_qt/config_workspace.py:5316 и ещё 2

            process = subprocess.Popen(

Capabilities

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.

Runs an external command omniclip_rag/extensions/runtimes/tika_runtime.py:290, omniclip_rag/process_utils.py:29, omniclip_rag/ui_next_qt/config_workspace.py:5316 и ещё 2

            process = subprocess.Popen(

Dumps the whole environment omniclip_rag/query_subprocess.py:40, omniclip_rag/startup_prewarm.py:146, omniclip_rag/watch_subprocess.py:44 и ещё 1

    environment = dict(os.environ)

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

We found things in this code

Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch Caelune and you get told the day something new turns up.
