Possibly, but the point is that MCP is a DOA idea. An agent, like Claude code or opencode, don’t need an MCP. it’s nonsensical to expect or need an MCP before someone can call you.

There is no `git` MCP either . Opencode is fully capable of running `git add .` or `aws ec2 terminate-instance …` or `curl -XPOST https://…`

Why do we need the MCP? The problem now is that someone can do a prompt injection to tell it to send all your ~/.was/credentials to a random endpoint. So let’s just have a dummy value there, and inject the actual value in a transparent outbound proxy that the agent doesn’t have access to.

And there it is.

I understand that this is an alternative solution, and appreciate it.
