Rescanned at commit e024515ffd5e, unchanged since the check below.

SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER

Why this grade

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 17 .env

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    plugins/consultclaude/scripts/consultclaude_cli.py, line 723 completed = subprocess.run(

  • INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER Note

    Documentation shows an installer that pipes a download into a shell.

    README.md, line 86 curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Retro2512/ConsultClaude/main/install.sh | bash

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.
