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.

      child = this.spawn(command.command, command.args, { env: environment, stdio: ['pipe', 'pipe', 'pipe'] })
