What the code does
We read the source, 13 h ago · rules 995398eba69f
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.
completed = subprocess.run([sys.executable, str(script_path)], cwd=str(repo_root))
filepath = os.path.join(kb, 'raw', fname)
dossier = yaml.load(dossier_text, Loader=_UniqueLoader)

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.
