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

Rescanned at commit 2f25ec26a768, unchanged since the check below.

NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    scripts/auto_refresh.mjs, line 112 const resp = await fetch('https://api.deepseek.com/user/balance', {

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    commands/setup.md, line 177 **When runtime is bun** - add `--env-file /dev/null` to prevent Bun from auto-loading project `.env` files:

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    scripts/auto_refresh.mjs, line 90 const deepseekKey = process.env.DEEPSEEK_API_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.
