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.
Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released. We list it because a leaked key in a build pipeline is still a real problem, but it is not something this server does on your machine.

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 server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
PINOT_CONTROLLER_URL (HTTP(S) endpoint of the Pinot Controller.), PINOT_BROKER_URL (HTTP(S) endpoint of the Pinot Broker.), PINOT_USERNAME (Optional Pinot basic-auth username.), PINOT_PASSWORD (Optional Pinot basic-auth password.), PINOT_TOKEN (Optional Pinot bearer token. Overrides username and password when set.), PINOT_USE_MSQE (Whether to enable Pinot multi-stage query engine support.), MCP_TRANSPORT (Transport mode: 'stdio' (default, for desktop clients) or 'http'.), AUTH_PROVIDER (Inbound auth provider for HTTP transport (e.g. 'oauth'); required to bind a non-loopback host.).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
