How is the trust score calculated?

MCP_K8S_ALLOWED_IMAGES	Yes	Strict image allowlist (CSV). Empty means every call is rejected, so this must be set.
MCP_K8S_KUBECONFIG	No	Path to the kubeconfig inside the container. Empty = use in-cluster credentials.
MCP_K8S_NAMESPACE	No	Namespace the ephemeral pods are created in. Needs a Role/RoleBinding for jobs and pods.
MCP_K8S_TRANSPORT	No	MCP transport: stdio \| http \| sse. Must be 'stdio' for direct docker/stdio use.
MCP_K8S_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_S	No	Default wall-clock timeout per job, seconds.
MCP_K8S_MAX_TIMEOUT_S	No	Maximum wall-clock timeout a caller may request, seconds.
MCP_K8S_MAX_OUTPUT_BYTES	No	Cap on combined stdout/stderr before truncation.
MCP_K8S_MAX_ARTIFACT_BYTES	No	Cap on the total size of returned artifacts.
MCP_K8S_MAX_CONCURRENT	No	Maximum ephemeral pods running at the same time.
MCP_K8S_DEFAULT_CPU	No	Pod CPU request; limits come from the caller or the namespace LimitRange.
MCP_K8S_DEFAULT_MEMORY	No	Pod memory request; limits come from the caller or the namespace LimitRange.
MCP_K8S_SIDECAR_IMAGE	No	Helper image used to inject input files and collect artifacts.
MCP_K8S_CLONE_IMAGE	No	Image carrying git for the clone init container. Empty disables the clone field.
MCP_K8S_CLONE_SECRET	No	Secret with git tokens, mounted only on the cloner. Empty disables the clone field. Secret.
MCP_K8S_CACHE_PVC	No	Existing PVC mounted into every job pod as a shared cache. Empty = no cache.
MCP_K8S_CACHE_MOUNT_PATH	No	Where the cache PVC is mounted, e.g. /go/pkg/mod. Empty = no cache.
MCP_K8S_JOB_EXTRA_ENV	No	JSON object of env vars added to every job pod; caller keys win on collision.
