Skim MCP Server

What the code does

A value the model can set ends up inside a file or shell call. That is not a flaw by itself — for a terminal server it is the job — but it is where things go wrong when it is not.

        proc = subprocess.Popen(command, **kwargs)

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.

        out = subprocess.run([sys.executable, "-m", "pytest", "--collect-only", "-q"],

        r = skim_file(os.path.join(_EVAL, fname))
