I don't understand.

My argument here is that one of the reasons to use MCP is that it allows you to build smaller agents that do not have a full code execution environment, and those agents can then use MCPs to make calls to external services without revealing those credentials to the agent.

I think we both agree that if your agent has full Bash access it can access credentials.
