Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

Compatibility: Not stated.

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 NETWORK_UNNAMED_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.

    mcp/scripts/smoke.ts, line 33 ok((await fetch(url)).status === 405, "GET returns 405");

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    mcp/scripts/smoke.ts, line 33 ok((await fetch(url)).status === 405, "GET returns 405");

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    docs/releases/v2.4.0.md, line 62 - Security: a plaintext `.env` or credential file in a workspace an agent can read counts

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    scripts/check_public_commit.py, line 24 return subprocess.run(

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    mcp/scripts/check-bundle.mjs, line 22 process.env.FLOW_TOKEN_KEYS = `1:${randomBytes(32).toString("base64")}`;

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.

  • Install and update

    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 evil.example. The description does not name that host.
