Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

Grade B

Minor issues only, no Medium or High. Worth a quick look at the findings below before installing.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    ci/scripts/lockfile-diff.sh, line 117 meta=$(curl -sf --max-time 15 "$REGISTRY/$enc" 2>/dev/null || echo "")

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 2 .env

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    ci/semgrep/fixtures/safe/server/loader.py, line 7 subprocess.run(["convert", input_path, output_path], check=True)

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

    Reads an environment variable whose name contains KEY, SECRET, TOKEN, PASSWORD or CREDENTIAL.

    ci/semgrep/fixtures/safe/src/client/keys.ts, line 2 export const supabase = createClient(url, process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY);

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.

    - Commit `.env.example` with placeholder values so the shape is documented and the real file

    `git log --all --full-history -- .env` is empty. Run both before the first push, not after.

    skills/security-protocols/SKILL.md, line 61

    - **Also:** `.env*` must be gitignored (`.env.example` with placeholder values is the committed one).

    - Nothing sensitive served statically: `.git/`, `.env`, `.DS_Store`, backups, source maps.
