Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill uses
npxto dynamically download and execute the@mcp-use/inspectorpackage from the npm registry at runtime, which is an external and unverified dependency. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill executes multiple shell commands to manage background processes, capture PIDs, and perform network requests via
curlto interact with local and remote services. - [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE]: The skill explicitly prompts users for high-entropy secrets, such as OpenAI and Anthropic API keys, and provides instructions to persist these secrets in a local
.envfile in plaintext. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes untrusted tool schemas and descriptions from external MCP servers, creating a surface for indirect prompt injection that could influence the behavior of the testing LLM.
