>The Solver actually has a weakness in that it can't interface into reality without a host. If the Foundation locates and just vaporizes whatever drone(s) it's infected (or better yet, figures out whatever eldritch Solver demon magic JCJenson used to begin with that gave it a backdoor into the worker drones systems when improperly disposed of), then they can essentially prevent it from ever getting a foot in on this side of reality
Yep, very true.
However, it's implied that the Solver manifests in sufficiently advanced / sentient AI *in general*. It just so happens that in MD, JcJenson is pretty much the sole conglomerate of AI and robotics with very few competitors, so obviously we see Worker Drones are all it uses as hosts. Different kinds of AI and robotic entities are very prevalent in a lot of SCP stories, which gives the Solver a lot of potential gateways if you buy that as being viable. Depending on specific conditions, since the Solver needs a potential AI host to be damaged, impaired or vulnerable in some way for it to to be able to slip in and manifest. Such as after a suitably damaging event like rebooting after software-death.
>"We know it mutates in damaged AI." - The Solver itself
If you consider all that, the procedure for containing the Solver (or more accurately, keeping it OUT and preventing it from manifesting in the universe by denying it a host) would be unfeasable if it would require them to keep tabs on all sentient AI and potential hosts everywhere, or track down and destroy all potential hosts.
