Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

Claude Code, Skill

Sim Cli

Turn existing CAE files into structured text an agent can use — COMSOL, Abaqus, Fluent, HFSS, Icepak, FloTHERM — plus solver detection, script linting, and live solver sessions.

Compatibility: Not stated.

Grade B

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

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_ENV_READ OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    plugins/abaqus/src/sim_plugin_abaqus/driver.py, line 88 result = subprocess.run(

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    plugins/abaqus/src/sim_plugin_abaqus/driver.py, line 909 with socket.create_connection((self._bridge_host, self._bridge_port), timeout=request_timeout) as sock:

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    plugins/comsol/src/sim_plugin_comsol/driver.py, line 1844 password = password or os.environ.get("COMSOL_PASSWORD", "")

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

    A file was over the read cap and was not fully read.

    uv.lock, line 1 version = 1

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED Note

    The 400 file cap was reached before every file was read.

    uv.lock, line 1 version = 1

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.
