Security Notes
The server uses `os.getenv` for sensitive configurations like API keys and hostnames, which is good practice. Input validation is applied to tool parameters. However, the `WebContentFetcher` falls back to `Jina Reader API (r.jina.ai)` for some fetching failures or specific content types (e.g., PDFs). This means user-provided URLs and their content might be processed by a third-party service, which could have privacy and data leakage implications. Additionally, `yt-dlp` is configured with `nocheckcertificate: True`, which reduces the security of outbound connections by disabling SSL certificate verification, making it susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks.
