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.

"Host key verification failed for {}:{}: {e}. The presented key does not match ~/.ssh/known_hosts — possible man-in-the-middle attack. If the host key legitimately changed, remove the old entry (`ssh-keygen -R '{}'`) and reconnect.",

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.
