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

Rescanned at commit ecae64f2272c, unchanged since the check below.

PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED Medium

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

    skills/pubnub-keyset-management/evals/scenario-2/task.md, line 13 1. Execute `git diff --cached` (using `child_process.execSync` or equivalent) and capture stdout as a UTF-8 string.

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.
