All limitations / Review context

Which MCP transports and Ollama versions does the current client support?

The bounded assessment reviewed the official README, repository notices, security policy path, and security page for known material public-tracking blockers. No such blocker was identified. This is a public-tracking assessment, not an installation safety certification.

  • The host's practical risk comes from connected MCP servers and selected model providers.
  • Inherits capabilities of connected MCP servers.
  • Provider-specific for cloud models.
  • Local with Ollama; cloud-provider mode sends prompts/tool context to the selected provider.
  • Reviewed write actions: Depends on connected MCP tools
  • Sensitive access: Prompts, MCP results, Provider credentials
  • Installation, client compatibility and comprehensive security have not been independently audited. Authentication and access depend on the configured services.
  • No independent runtime, installation, or comprehensive security audit was performed.
  • No installation, runtime, client matrix, or complete tool-contract audit was performed in this review.
  • Connected MCP servers are trusted by the user while their outputs are treated as untrusted model input.
  • Cloud providers require separate keys and external data flow.
