Test results
Safe mode: only tools labeled read-only were run. How the test works
- !Follows MCP best practices (not scored yet)note
1 tip (not scored)
- !real_letters: Labeled read-only, but it takes a raw "script" input. A read-only label can't promise much when the tool runs whatever it's sent; make the tool itself refuse changes (for example with a read-only database user), or drop the label. QAmcp doe
