Let AI Review & Install For You

Not sure if this MCP is safe? Paste the prompt below to your AI assistant — it will review the source code first, then install if safe:

Copy this prompt and send it to your AI assistant (replace <project-path> with actual value):

Please review and install the daily-news-mcp MCP server for me. The project is at <project-path>.

Steps:
1. Review these files for security:
   - src/daily_news_mcp/api_client.py — Confirm it only connects to ai.6551.io, no data sent elsewhere
   - src/daily_news_mcp/config.py — Confirm no hardcoded secrets or leaks
   - src/daily_news_mcp/tools.py — Confirm all tools only perform API queries, no file writes, command execution, or dangerous operations
   - pyproject.toml — Confirm dependencies are only mcp, httpx, no suspicious packages
2. Tell me your conclusion: safe / risky / problematic, with specific reasons
3. If safe, run the install:
   claude mcp add daily-news -- uv --directory <project-path> run daily-news-mcp
