Desktop text workbench + MCP server: 22+ text processing tools for AI assistants
SaferSkills independently audited Pomera AI Commander (MCP Server) and scored it 65/100 (yellow). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 4 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.

A desktop text "workbench" + MCP server: clean, transform, extract, and analyze text fast—manually in a GUI or programmatically from AI assistants (Cursor / Claude Desktop / MCP clients).
Stop pasting text into 10 random websites. Pomera (GUI + MCP) - do web searches with MCP and save your work as Pomera Notes in case of text corruption in IDE! Your search API keys are stored encrypted in local database instead of JSON config file.
📊 [Why AI needs Pomera!](docs/tools/analysis-comparison.md) - Pomera's MCP tools reduce token usage upto 70-80% for deterministic operations.

# then run:
pomera-mcp --helpAfter installing via pip or npm, create a desktop shortcut for quick access:
# For pip install:
pomera-create-shortcut
# For npm install (from package directory):
python create_shortcut.pyPomera exposes 22 text processing tools via MCP. Configure your AI assistant:
Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"pomera": {
"command": "pomera-ai-commander",
"timeout": 3600
}
}
}Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"pomera": {
"command": "pomera-ai-commander",
"timeout": 3600
}
}
}💡 Tip: If the simple command doesn't work, use the full path. Find it with: ```bash # For npm install: npm root -g # Then use: <result>/pomera-ai-commander/pomera_mcp_server.py
>
# For pip install: pip show pomera-ai-commander | grep Location ```
⏱️ Timeout: The"timeout": 3600setting (in seconds) prevents MCP request timeouts during long-running AI operations likeresearchanddeepreasoning. Cline, Cursor, and Claude Desktop all default to a 60-second timeout, which is too short for AI calls involving web search + deep reasoning (60-300s). See Cline #1306.
