require('child_process'Caution. This package runs system commands on your computer. This is like giving someone the keys to your terminal. They could run anything — download files, change settings, or access your private data.
Technical details
Direct process execution functions (exec, spawn) can run arbitrary commands. Combined with user input, this enables remote code execution.

execSync(DO NOT INSTALL. This package tries to read your SSH keys — the same keys that unlock your servers, your GitHub account, and your deployments. No Claude skill should ever need to touch these files. This looks like credential theft.
Technical details
Accessing SSH keys or known_hosts is a strong indicator of credential theft. No legitimate MCP server needs access to SSH configuration.
