You’re absolutely right! Security is a very important consideration. Thank you for adding that perspective.
For my use case, I think the following would be enough:
* Read and write MD files
* Read and write CSV files
While not essential, being able to read images such as PNG and JPG files would also be very helpful.
I think even this limited scope would cover many practical workflows
