I have to work with agents as a part of my job and the very first thing I did when writing MCP tools for my workflow was to ensure they were read only or had a deterministic, hardcoded stopgap that evaluates the output.

I do not understand the level of carelessness and lack of thinking displayed in the OP.

Even just having the agent write scripts to disk and run those works wonders. It keeps the agent from having to rebuild a script for the same tasks, etc.
