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

Rescanned at commit b5c5abe01cf7, unchanged since the check below.

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

    Makes a network call whose host is not written as a fixed address.

    templates/env.ts, line 12 // fetch(env.API_URL, { signal })

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    templates/env.ts, line 12 // fetch(env.API_URL, { signal })

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    skills/new-project/SKILL.md, line 120 .env

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

    Runs shell commands, and the manifest or description says so.

    hooks/check-em-dash.py, line 21 subprocess.run(

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.

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.

What was checked

Plain notes from the hygiene checks.

  • Permissions

    Note

    requests shell access. The manifest names this permission.

    **Enforcement:** the `ASYNC` rules in `templates/ruff.toml` catch blocking calls (`time.sleep`, sync `open`, sync `subprocess.run`) inside `async def` - the most common way agents

  • Install and update

    Pass

    No install-time script found, and dependencies are pinned or absent.

  • Network

    Concern

    can reach a host that is not written as a fixed address. can reach api.github.com. The description does not name that host.

    - A project-specific rule can flag `fetch(` calls that don't pass `signal`:

    message: 'fetch() must receive { signal } - see guides/abort-signal-threading.md.',
