Security Notes
The application is designed to execute commands and connect to URLs specified in user-provided configuration files (e.g., `mcp.json`). If these configuration files are untrusted or compromised, the application will execute arbitrary commands (`stdio` server type) or connect to malicious network services. The `StdioTransport` directly uses `subprocess.Popen` with commands and arguments from config. There are no obvious code injection vulnerabilities from typical user input within the TUI (e.g., parameter values for tools). Users must ensure the integrity and trustworthiness of all MCP configuration files.
