About Mac Shell MCP

It is built around one idea: the agent cannot widen its own authority. There is no tool that edits the policy, no approval queue the agent can drain, and no shell to interpret its arguments.

Tools (1)

  • git

    executes commands from a repository's own.git/config, and no environment variable disables that
