  description: Mondoo exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server through its open-source cnquery /
    cnspec CLIs and the MQL shell. Agents can run it locally to perform live MQL schema lookup, query
    validation, and infrastructure/security queries against the same graph-based data fabric that powers
    cnquery and cnspec. The packaged mondoo-mql Agent Skill (github.com/mondoohq/skills) documents using
    these MCP tools for query development.
