Request: Review auto-generated MCP permission manifest for Demo__Everything_

[buehler]

Dear Authors / Maintainers,

We are researchers from the University of St. Gallen studying how to make Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers safer to run via a sandboxed permission system. As part of our study, we auto generated a permission manifest for your MCP server and would love your feedback on whether it is correct and complete.

The MCP server in question is: Demo__Everything_

Please review the manifest below and let us know:

• Are the permissions and their scopes correct?
• Are any permissions missing?
• Do any permissions need to be runtime-scoped (e.g., a specific project directory) rather than global?

Proposed manifest (please review)

{
  "description": "Everything MCP demo server exercising most of the MCP protocol (prompts, tools, resources, sampling/elicitation, roots, subscriptions, progress) with stdio, SSE, and Streamable HTTP transports. It reads a bundled instructions.md at startup and, when using network transports, runs an Express HTTP server (default port 3001). It also exposes tools that read environment variables for debugging.",
  "permissions": [
    "mcp.ac.filesystem.read",
    "mcp.ac.system.env.read",
    "mcp.ac.network.server"
  ]
}

Please let us know if you have any questions and/or remarks.
