What the code does

We read the source, 13 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 server_info.path → src/index.js:573, server_info.path → src/index.js:574, server_info.path → src/index.js:810 и ещё 1
    ? { filename: "index.html", html: readFileSync(path, "utf8") }
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.

    const child = spawn(cmd, args, { stdio: "ignore", detached: true });

thing — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for thing?
thing 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 @unravel-tech/thing was installed 625 times last week.
How do I connect thing?
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 @unravel-tech/thing straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use thing?
The npm package @unravel-tech/thing was installed 625 times in the last week. Week over week that is +6844%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is thing open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Shell and 0 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.
