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.

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.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: GIT_REPO_PATH (Default repository path for all tool requests. Can also be set via the --repo / --repo-path CLI argument. If omitted, each tool call must supply repo_path explicitly), GIT_ALLOW_NO_VERIFY (Set to 'true' to expose a no_verify parameter on commit and push tools, passing --no-verify to Git and bypassing pre-commit / pre-push hooks), GIT_ALLOW_FORCE_PUSH (Set to 'true' to expose a force parameter on push tools. Remote branch protection rules (GitHub/GitLab) are still enforced server-side regardless), GIT_ALLOW_FLOW_HOOKS (Set to 'true' to allow git_flow to execute git-flow-next-compatible hook and filter programs discovered from git config or repository hook locations), GIT_SIGNING_KEY (Default signing key: a GPG key ID, an SSH public key path, or empty to use git's configured user.signingkey. Used when GIT_AUTO_SIGN_COMMITS or GIT_AUTO_SIGN_TAGS is enabled), GIT_SIGNING_FORMAT (Signing format for commits and tags. Accepted values: openpgp, ssh, x509), GIT_AUTO_SIGN_COMMITS (Set to 'true' to automatically sign all commits produced by this server), GIT_AUTO_SIGN_TAGS (Set to 'true' to automatically sign all tags produced by this server).
