FAQ from Secure Command Executor MCP Server

How does the server handle dangerous commands?

Commands marked as dangerous: true trigger a warning and require explicit confirmation before execution, based on the confirmationPrompt and consequences fields defined in commands.json.

Where are logs stored and how are they rotated?

Logs are stored in the directory specified by the --logs argument (default logs). Each day’s logs are saved in a separate file named YYYY-MM-DD.json, achieving daily rotation.

How can I configure the available commands?

Modify the commands.json file to define command names, descriptions, examples, danger flags, and enabled status. Alternatively, use the /manageCommand API endpoint to add, update, or remove commands at runtime.

What dependencies are required to run the server?

The server requires Node.js and the npm packages minimist, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, and zod. These are installed via npm install.

Can I change the port or other runtime settings?

Yes, use command-line arguments --port (default 3000), --file for commands path, and --logs for logs directory. Environment variables PORT and NODE_ENV are also supported.
