What the reviewer found
Chinese-language AGENTS.md lessons-learned log for cmd-exec-mcp, an MCP server whose stated purpose is running local/sandboxed/SSH commands. The flagged env-copy and `~/.ssh/id_rsa` path-expansion notes are debugging pitfalls about the project's own subprocess/SSH executor code, not exfiltration; risk is low only because the tool itself grants broad command-execution capability by design.

How this review was made
Sonnet 5 read the files above on 7 September 2026 and answered three questions: is it dangerous to whoever installs it, is each scanner finding real, and what should the installer know. The verdict is bound to the file's hash; when the file changes, it is scanned afresh and reviewed again. A script that changes while the definition does not is not re-reviewed — that is a known gap. How the scan and the review work.
