MCP tool input schema exposes an unconstrained string/any field with a risky name (command/query/sql/code/script/url/path/expr/ eval). Any caller can pass arbitrary values, which typically widens the tool's blast radius well beyond its intent. Narrow the schema with `.enum()`, `.regex()`, `.max()`, `Literal[...]`, Pydantic `Field(max_length=..., pattern=...)`, or a JSON Schema `enum` / `pattern` / `maxLength`.

Remediation
Shape the schema to the tool's actual intent: - Zod: chain `.enum([...])`, `.regex(/.../)`, or `.max(n)`; prefer `z.enum([...])` or `z.literal(...)` when the value set is small. - Pydantic: use `Literal["a", "b"]` or `Field(max_length=..., pattern=r"...")`. - JSON Schema: add `"enum"`, `"pattern"`, or `"maxLength"` to the property. An overbroad schema is an "overpowered tool" โ the model has nothing to prevent it from calling the tool with input far beyond what the tool's prose contract

Package declares an install-time hook (npm postinstall/preinstall/prepare, setup.py cmdclass override, custom setuptools install class, or non-default pyproject build-backend). Anyone installing this package runs the hook. Confirm the hook is necessary and review its contents; prefer shipping a plain library without install-time execution.

Remediation
Prefer libraries that do not require install-time code execution: - Drop `postinstall`/`preinstall`/`prepare` scripts if the work can happen at runtime or build-time instead. - Ship pre-built native binaries rather than compiling via a custom `cmdclass` or `build_ext` override. - For Dockerfiles: replace `RUN curl โฆ | sh` with a pinned download + checksum verification + explicit `RUN` of a named script. - If the hook is unavoidable, document exactly what it does so downstream reviewers
