A screenshot of a terminal interface with a dark background. On the top left, the prompt reads root@server:~# and on the right side, the text is green, yellow, and red to differentiate between the different parts of the commands and their outputs. The first section contains several lines of code that show the results of running different commands such as root@server:~# kubectl get pod -n kagent. The second section has the same prompt as before and shows other lines of code, for example: root@server:~# /my-mcp-server# bat src/tools/echo.py. Next, on the third section, the content has been formatted as if it were a code editor with a list of numbers from one to seventeen. On the left and the rest are the code on the right with a blue comment at the beginning, followed by red and blue code, as well as a brief description of the functions with a grey background and a light blue outline.
