Security Notes
Strong input validation (Zod) is used for all tool parameters, significantly reducing risks from malformed inputs. Sensitive API keys and connection strings are loaded exclusively from environment variables, preventing hardcoding. Default local execution utilizes standard I/O (stdio) for communication, limiting direct network exposure. The 'findConsistentOutlierChannels' tool interacts with MongoDB, requiring proper database security configurations (e.g., connection string permissions).
