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.
const files = await readdir(SAVE_DIR);
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.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
GOOGLE_API_KEY (Google AI API key (enables Gemini image/video generation)), OPENAI_API_KEY (OpenAI API key (enables GPT Image 1/2 generation)), XAI_API_KEY (xAI API key (enables Grok Imagine generation)).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
