mcp-builder
Guide for creating high-quality MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that enable LLMs to interact with external services through well-designed tools. Use when building MCP servers to integrate external APIs or services, whether in Python (FastMCP) or Node/TypeScript (MCP SDK).

Low
Low-risk findings.
2 low severity findings. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
What this means
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
Why it was flagged
Yes — SKILL.md explicitly requires fetching public web pages (e.g., "Start with the sitemap at https://modelcontextprotocol.io/sitemap.xml" and "Use WebFetch to load https://raw.githubusercontent.com/.../README.md") and instructs using web search/WebFetch as part of the required Phase 1 workflow, so the agent is expected to read untrusted third‑party content that can materially influence tool design and subsequent actions.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The evaluation harness connects at runtime to an external MCP server URL (e.g., https://example.com/mcp) to load tool definitions that are injected into the model as tools and to invoke those tools remotely (call_tool), which directly controls agent behavior and executes remote code.
