What problem does it solve? Integration work on MCP servers, plugins, skills, and AI providers often leads to leaked credentials, false claims about live provider access, and undocumented configuration changes. This Skill keeps that work safe, honest, and recorded. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Credential Protection: Prevents printing, storing, or committing API keys, tokens, SSH keys, and service accounts during integration work. - Honest Status Tracking: Keeps Missing Key, Disabled, Planned, Error, Mock, and Connected provider states distinct, and forbids claiming live access without verified tool calls. - Approval Gates: Requires explicit approval before cloud writes, GitHub writes, deployments, SSH, database mutations, or billing-impacting actions. - Use Case: When adding a new MCP server to the SEIS repository, the Skill guides inspection of existing configuration, secrets-free setup, and recording outcomes in inventory files like docs/platform/big-tech-mcp-skill-inventory.md. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to review the current MCP and provider configuration in the SEIS repository and record the verified status of each integration in the inventory files.
