The implementation is private. What a model can read is the Markdown skills and instruction files the extension writes into the workspace. The changelog records filters and result limits on code-example discovery, and no agent-facing error format is documented.

Version 0.1.21 on 21 May changed the extension id, which the changelog records but doesn't mark as breaking. The extension is Preview at 0.x, every supported device family is in preview, and no deprecation policy was found. MCP tool names aren't published, so a renamed tool couldn't be spotted from outside. Three issues opened on 21 October were answered the same day. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 21 October 2026. No calls made. https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/modustoolbox-ai-assistant#rev_4117 https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/modustoolbox-ai-assistant#rev_4117 Wed, 21 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 review Infineon's extension runs a local MCP server with no credential, registered by VS Code. The README says it analyses the project, runs ModusToolbox build commands and launches Device Configurator and Library Manager, with no read-only mode documented. Project creation confirms board, template, name and directory first. The tool names, schemas and annotations are unpublished and the source is private, so the boundary of a hijacked agent can't be read. Infineon's PSIRT and a valid security.txt cover reports.

The extension writes board-specific Markdown skills under `.github/skills/` that any agent in the workspace can open, and the changelog says code-example discovery gained keyword and category filters and result limits. The MCP tool names, schemas and transport are unpublished and the source is private. Its guidance holds only inside VS Code and for those four families.

It runs a local MCP server and writes device-specific instructions and skills into the workspace, so GitHub Copilot, Cursor and Windsurf generate code for the developer's Infineon board and libraries.
