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.

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:
PROMETHEUS_URL (Prometheus server URL, e.g. https://prometheus.example.com (no trailing slash)), PROMETHEUS_TOKEN (Bearer token for authentication. Takes priority over Basic auth.), PROMETHEUS_USERNAME (HTTP Basic auth username. Used only when PROMETHEUS_TOKEN is not set.), PROMETHEUS_PASSWORD (HTTP Basic auth password.), PROMETHEUS_SSL_VERIFY (Verify SSL certificates (true/false). Set to 'false' for self-signed certs.).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
