Limitations and things to check
Before you connect it:
- The README mentions: can run commands or code on your machine; needs credentials or api keys; manages infrastructure or cloud resources.
- Read the code or the documentation of the tools it exposes, and note what each tool can do.
- Grant the smallest permissions you can: limit folders, API scopes and database roles.
- Keep credentials in environment variables or a secrets manager, never in a shared config file.
- Run it in a container or a separate user account if it can execute code or touch files.
