FAQ from SilentFail

Does SilentFail scan itself?

No, when running as an MCP server, SilentFail automatically excludes itself from the scan to avoid recursion.

Is it safe to run tool tests?

Yes. SilentFail only calls tools with read-only, minimal test inputs (stock tickers, currency codes) and never sends destructive operations.

Can I use it in CI?

Yes, use silentfail --test --json for machine-readable
