§00 Trust verdict · v1 advisory · method

UNVERIFIEDno verdict on file

Verdict not yet evaluated for this tool. The hybrid eval runs adversarial cases first; coverage rolls out as the corpus expands. Until a verdict is recorded, an agent should treat this tool as not-yet-cleared and fall back to its own checks. Method: hybrid eval, four-state verdict, honest limits.

§02 Environment variables

MCP_OFFICE_SIDECAR_STATE

required

Absolute path to sidecar state file (host-managed; sidecar writes port + token here)

MCP_OFFICE_SIDECAR_DISABLE

Kill-switch — set to 1 to refuse to spawn or talk to the sidecar

REBEL_DISABLE_OFFICE_SIDECAR

DEPRECATED legacy alias for MCP_OFFICE_SIDECAR_DISABLE — still honored for backward compatibility with v0.1.1 operator-set kill-switches; will be removed in a future major version. Use MCP_OFFICE_SIDECAR_DISABLE instead.

MCP_OFFICE_SIDECAR_STATE_DIR

Sidecar state directory (certs, per-app manifests). Normally derived from MCP_OFFICE_SIDECAR_STATE; hosts managing the sidecar lifecycle directly can override.

MCP_OFFICE_ADDIN_DIR

Absolute path to the built add-in static files. Defaults to the package's dist/addin/ directory.
