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

Rescanned at commit 11e5f5d585c6, unchanged since the check below.

INSTALL_UNPINNED NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • INSTALL_UNPINNED Low

    Dependencies use a range or git URL with no lockfile.

    requirements.txt, line 2 httpx>=0.24.0

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    CLAUDE.md, line 50 +-- smart_search → Search + fetch (depth control)

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    chrome_launcher.py, line 147 subprocess.Popen(

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    llm_adapters/openai_adapter.py, line 37 api_key=api_key or os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY", ""),

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.
