configuring-codescene-mcp-68353e — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited configuring-codescene-mcp-68353e (Agent Skill) and scored it 91/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 1 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

Use this skill when the task is to configure the CodeScene MCP Server after it has been installed. The MCP server exposes get_config, set_config, and logout tools (and, outside Docker, login) that let the AI assistant authenticate and manage configuration on the user's behalf. Clients that support MCP prompts also expose login and logout prompts (slash commands) — except in Docker, where OAuth login is unavailable and a Personal Access Token (CS_ACCESS_TOKEN) is required.
enabled_tools).Do not use this skill for installing or registering the MCP server in an AI assistant. Use installing-and-activating-codescene-mcp for that.
login: Sign in with OAuth (opens browser). Preferred for interactive desktop use. Also available as the login MCP prompt (slash command). Not available in Docker — use a PAT instead.logout: Sign out of OAuth (clears CLI credentials and MCP OAuth config). Does not remove CS_ACCESS_TOKEN. Also available as the logout MCP prompt.get_config: List all configuration options and their current values (sensitive values are masked).get_config with a key: Read a single option by name.set_config: Set a configuration value persistently.set_config with an empty value: Delete a stored configuration value.CS_ACCESS_TOKEN / access_token (PAT or standalone) — always wins and blocks OAuth login.login.| Key | Purpose |
|---|---|
account_id | Optional Cloud account/tenant ID (positive integer). Pin multi-account OAuth to a specific account. Use switch_account to change accounts while signed in; setting this alone does not retarget the session. |
access_token | Optional Personal Access Token or standalone MCP license token (CI/headless). |
onprem_url | Base URL for a self-hosted CodeScene instance (API-mode only). |
default_project_id | Pre-select a CodeScene project by numeric ID (API-mode only). |
ca_bundle | Path to a custom PEM-format CA certificate bundle. |
enabled_tools | Comma-separated allowlist of tool names to expose (empty = all). |
Environment variables set by the MCP client always override values in the config file. If the user has set a value via an environment variable in their editor config, set_config will warn that the env var takes precedence and the stored value will not be used until the env var is removed.
get_config to see the current state of all options.access_token is set and the user wants OAuth, clear it first (set_config with empty value or ask them to remove CS_ACCESS_TOKEN from client env). For multi-account Cloud while already signed in, call switch_account (no arguments lists accounts; then switch by name or account_id). Do not only set_config account_id.login for OAuth (or have the user invoke the login MCP prompt), or set_config for PAT / other options. To change Cloud account, call switch_account. To sign out, call logout (or the logout prompt).get_config with the relevant key to confirm the change took effect.access_token, inform them that a server restart may be needed for tool registration changes to take effect.get_config shows a value source of "client environment variable", explain that the env var in their editor's MCP configuration takes precedence and must be changed there instead.Environment variables are still the right choice when:

The env var wins and the stored value is silently ignored.access_token / CS_ACCESS_TOKEN set and then trying to use login — PAT always blocks OAuth.account_id after login without calling switch_account — the pin alone does not retarget the active OAuth session; use switch_account.access_token changes may require a server restart.access_token, account_id) with set_config, not the env var name (CS_ACCESS_TOKEN, CS_ACCOUNT_ID).onprem_url or default_project_id when using a standalone license. These options are only available with CodeScene Core (OAuth or PAT).enabled_tools with misspelled tool names. The server warns about unknown names, but the misspelled tools are silently ignored.

The tool list is built once at startup.get_config, set_config, login, logout, or switch_account via enabled_tools. Outside Docker these tools are always enabled to prevent configuration lockout. In Docker, login and switch_account are not registered (use PAT / CS_ACCESS_TOKEN); logout remains available.~30 seconds. Free. No account. Every finding cites a rule and a line of evidence.
