What the code does

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.

Installs itself into autostart tools/system.go:580, tools/storage.go:523

            fmt.Errorf("crontab -l: %w", err))

Builds a file path from a variable tools/storage.go:35, tools/system.go:325

    s, _ := readSysfsFile(filepath.Join(sysfsBlock, dev, attr))

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

This code can reach further than it looks

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.

Is Linux MCP open source?
