replyIs this an advantage? Phrased differently, every MCP that could have been a CLI call is a new opportunity for sandbox escape.
I don’t follow. It’s the other way around. Would you rather run an arbitrary binary blob (aka: a random cli) or `curl`?
replyEdit: Maybe to clarify, I’m talking about remote MCP. Local MCP is obviously nonsensical. Remote MCP is very much thriving aggressively.
