We developed a free Mac binary to help address many of the common concerns associated with MCP servers. Happy to receive feedback! A lot of the risks for MCP are not necessarily new - you could say they simply exacerbate existing risks. We tried to address some of those - the most AI-ey feature is the AI as a judge feature that does a pulse check on input and output to an MCP server. The other features are typical, whitelisting tool calls, protecting secrets, etc.
