this + new HN account? couldn't be more obviously a competitor. not to defend delve, but can’t be pushing this like some noble effort with the goal of transparency

also lol @ the fake realtime "just searched for" toasts on a setInterval in the bottom left.

yeah, i was comparing MCP clients to browsers. connecting to an MCP shouldn't leave you vulnerable to RCE on your host.

also, the way MCP servers are presented right now is in sort of a "marketplace" fashion meaning it's not out of the question you could find one hosted by a bad actor. PyPI/npm are also like this, but it's different since it's not like you can vet the source code of a running MCP. packages are also versioned, unlike MCP where whoever is hosting them can change the behaviour at any time without notice.

i'd honestly say it's closer (but not analogous) to opening a website in your browser. you wouldn't expect javascript on a website to be able to escape the sandbox and run arbitrary code on your computer.

companies taking this seriously and awarding bounties is indicative it's fairly severe
