It sounds like iterm-mcp isn’t a tool that would fit in your organization. I’m totally not trying to change that or sell you anything.

I’m curious what your thoughts are around Cursor, Windsurf, etc. Those are IDE’s that provide the model with limited access to the terminal. Where do you feel like those tools and their AI features - terminal access specifically, fall in an org like yours? Are they disallowed due to terminal access or are the limitations of those tools safe enough?

We have a whitelist set of allowed ai tools and models. Cursor for example would fit better but I think. It really depends on the user. Engineers without access to major production system are minor risk compared to our dev ops engineers. It’s an audience issue as well I think. But we don‘t make this distinction because that can constantly shift. An engineer today may or may not have more critical access then yesterday. And it’s not about trust or anything. It’s also about liability. Our company is publicly traded which brings in a whole lot of fun when it comes to compliant topics. Who to blame when an ai disaster happens. Obviously its the operator who should monitor the output. Sadly too complicated.
