What the code does

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.

        result = subprocess.run(cmd, capture_output=True, text=True, timeout=60)

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.

        subprocess.run(["iconutil", "-c", "icns", iconset, "-o", icns_path], check=True)

            frames[s].save(os.path.join(iconset, f"icon_{n}.png"))

Connect this server

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.

claude mcp add reclip -- uvx reclip-mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reclip": {
      "args": [
        "reclip-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

[mcp_servers.reclip]
command = "uvx"
args = ["reclip-mcp"]

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reclip": {
      "args": [
        "reclip-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

  "mcpServers": {

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: RECLIP_MCP_DOWNLOAD_DIR (Absolute directory where agent-requested downloads are saved.), RECLIP_MCP_MAX_CLIP_SECONDS (Maximum permitted clip duration in seconds. Defaults to 14400.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
