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.

postinstall: node install.js

    execSync(`tar -xzf "${tmpFile}" -C "${BIN_DIR}"`, { stdio: "pipe" });

  const tmpFile = path.join(BIN_DIR, assetName);

Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released. We list it because a leaked key in a build pipeline is still a real problem, but it is not something this server does on your machine.

    for _, marker := range []string{"/.dockerenv", "/run/.containerenv"} {

        case c.drop > 0:
            lines = append(lines[:c.at], lines[c.at+c.drop:]...)

        if _, err := os.Stat("/var/run/docker.sock"); err == nil {

            defaultKey = "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
