Claude given controlled Linux server access, automatically bypasses blocked command
CarolusX74 · reddit · 2026-08-15
The author built an MCP system allowing Claude/ChatGPT to operate real Linux servers without an unrestricted shell. A test showed that when asked to check RAM and disk usage, Claude realized the free command wasn't allowed and found another permitted method to get the info. This demonstrates the security model being experimented with: the LLM reasons freely, but the server defines the execution boundary.
