Watch out for

• It deletes saved areas

  intel_aoi_delete removes an area you defined. It only touches the server's own local data, not remote accounts. github.com

• It keeps a local database of what it fetches

  Results and history go to a SQLite file at ~/.cache/world-intel-mcp/cache.db by default, kept for a year unless you change the retention settings. Set WORLD_INTEL_CACHE_DB to move it. github.com

• Tool results are third-party text

  News, feeds and filings come from the open internet. Treat them as untrusted text, since a headline can try to steer the model. github.com

• Built as a single-user local tool

  The security policy says it is meant to run as a stdio server under one user account on that user's machine. github.com
