MCP as Observability Interface: Connecting AI Agents to Kernel Tracepoints

Couldn't you create a MCP eBPF module and dynamically generate probe points?

Isn't the MCP endpoint that allows AI agents to run custom SQL queries, essentially letting your monitoring database be manipulated by a potentially malicious AI agent? Like, if the AI agent has full reign over the DB and it can't find a solution to, let's say, a perf bug, it may just rewrite that data and say it has "solved" the bug. And this is literally the least concerning example I could come up with.
