Mods Mcp — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited Mods Mcp (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.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
Multi-Project Design System MCP Server — an HTTP server that exposes design tokens, component specs, and validation utilities via a JSON REST API and an MCP JSON-RPC endpoint. Multiple design-system projects can coexist, each with parent-child inheritance for token resolution.

The server exposes a JSON-RPC 2.0 endpoint at POST /mcp (requires the same Authorization: Bearer <MCP_SECRET> header as the REST API). Configure it in your MCP client as an HTTP server.

}The input block causes VS Code to prompt for the secret once per session and store it in the system keychain. To skip the prompt, replace ${input:mpds_secret} with the token literal (not recommended for shared workspaces).
