Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

Claude Code, Plugin

Selat Plugins

Install SELAT in any agent harness — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, or a plain CLI — so the agent can discover and pay for capabilities beyond its native abilities, settling each payment from the user's own Circle Agent Wallet (MPC self-custody).

Compatibility: Not stated.

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.

Pattern found, check before installing

The checks matched a pattern that needs a closer look. It does not mean the code is harmful. Read the quoted lines below.

  • AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP High

    instruction in an agent instruction file without defensive wording

AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED

Why this grade

  • AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP High

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

    plugins/selat/skills/selat-discovery/SKILL.md, line 103 ~5 - 10 min. A fresh 0 Gateway reading usually means "still settling" - don't tell the user

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED Medium

    Runs shell commands that the manifest or description does not mention.

    plugins/selat-hermes/__init__.py, line 186 out = 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.

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.
