docs: interpreter-aware injection guidance - #9
Merged
Conversation
mdtask already runs python/ruby/node fences, where there is no shell doing the
quoting, so the old "use $name, the shell quotes it" advice was sh-only. Restate
it correctly: raw {{ arg }} is unsafe in any language; the safe form is to read
the value from the environment ("$name" in a shell, os.environ["name"] in Python,
process.env.name in Node). Applies to the Args doc, the MCP module doc, the
agent-refusal message, and script_arg_templates.

Folds into unreleased 0.2.0. The injection-remediation advice ("use
$name, the shell quotes it") was sh-only, but mdtask already runs python/ruby/node fences. Restated: raw{{ arg }}is unsafe in any language; the safe form is read-from-environment ("$name",os.environ["name"], ...). Updates the Args doc, MCP module doc + refusal message, andscript_arg_templates. Doc/comment-only; gate green.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
