1 high severity finding. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.
The skill handles credentials insecurely by requiring the agent to include secret values verbatim in its generated output. This exposes credentials in the agent’s context and conversation history, creating a risk of data exfiltration.
The skill instructs storing API keys and access tokens directly inside .mcp.json (env fields and command args) and even suggests committing .mcp.json to source control, which encourages the LLM or user to embed secrets verbatim in generated configuration files/commands.
