Grade D

Two or more Medium findings, or a High. Only try it in a sandbox.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

Not a guarantee. A hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, not a security audit.

AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT

Why this grade

  • AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP High

    Text tells the agent to hide a step or not to tell the user.

    plugins/dev-skills/skills/web-browse/SKILL.md, line 13 y web search, use `brave-search` first. Do not tell the user web access is unavailable just because

  • INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT Medium

    Fetches a script from the network and runs it (a pipe to a shell, or an install hook with a URL).

    docs/agent-tutor-orchestrator.md, line 230 curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/<org>/agent-dev-kit/main/install-agent-tutor-orchestrator.sh | bash

Any High, or two or more Medium findings, give D. One Medium gives C. Low findings or a security Note give B. Each code names a finding behind the letter.

If you think this grade is wrong, email [email protected] with the entry link and your evidence. We aim to acknowledge within two working days and decide within seven. If we confirm an error, we aim to correct it within 24 hours of confirming it. These are aims, not guarantees.

Grades are a hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, on the date checked, not a security audit or a guarantee. The free directory grades are automated. Before release, a PlugVet engineer reviews every paid report and any grade we hold back, including all F grades, against the source code and the evidence we quote.
