What the code does

We read the source, 20 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

A tool parameter reaches a dangerous call

A value the model can set ends up inside a file or shell call. That is not a flaw by itself — for a terminal server it is the job — but it is where things go wrong when it is not.

A tool parameter reaches a file or shell call animation_signature.clip → packages/render/bin/tty.js:150, apply_animation.animation → packages/render/bin/tty.js:78
        await fs.writeFile(out, bytes);
Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

Reaches cloud metadata service api/_lib/gcp-auth.js:86

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.

Builds a file path from a variable api/sitemap/[type].js:76, chat/vite.config.js:18
                return JSON.parse(await readFile(path.join(base, rel), 'utf8'));
Runs an external command herald-sdk/bin/herald.mjs:159
    const child = spawn(command[0], command.slice(1), { stdio: 'inherit', shell: false });
Builds a database query by concatenation packages/motion/src/solve.js:122
    const drop = STANDING_HIP_HEIGHT * (root.height - 1) + root.rise;
            if (reset) { state.cursor = null; state.total = 0; grid.innerHTML = skeletons(); stateEl.hidden = true; }
Long encoded blob in source api/_lib/x402/ring-catalog.js:56

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

A tool parameter here reaches a dangerous call

That is not a flaw by itself — but it is where things go wrong when it is not the job. We re-read this code on every release. Watch it and you hear from us the day another one appears.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: THREE_WS_API_KEY (Your three.ws bearer credential: an API key (sk_live_… / sk_test_…) or OAuth access token. Every copy-trade subscription, intent, and fee is scoped to the account it identifies. Required for all tools except a leader's public aggregate earnings. Mint one at https://three.ws/dashboard/developers. Treat like cash.), THREE_WS_BASE (Base URL of the three.ws API that serves the copy-trading endpoints. Override only when self-hosting or targeting a preview deployment.), THREE_WS_TIMEOUT_MS (Per-request timeout in milliseconds for the live copy-trading reads and writes.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

three.ws Copy Trading — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for three.ws Copy Trading?
three.ws Copy Trading runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @three-ws/copy-mcp was installed 330 times last week.
How do I connect three.ws Copy Trading?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @three-ws/copy-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use three.ws Copy Trading?
The npm package @three-ws/copy-mcp was installed 330 times in the last week. Week over week that is +1772%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is three.ws Copy Trading open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in JavaScript and 194 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
