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

SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV NETWORK_NAMED_HOST SECRETS_ENV_READ OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP

Why this grade

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 21 .env

  • NETWORK_NAMED_HOST Note

    Calls a fixed host that the description names.

    CHANGELOG.md, line 160 - Planner recognizes release_id/release_date fields as requiring details fetch ([`17f8ff3`](https://github.com/grokify/aha-studio/commit/17f8ff3))

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    cmd/aha-mcp-server/main.go, line 105 apiKey = os.Getenv("AHA_API_KEY")

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

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

    ent/mutation.go, line 1 // Code generated by ent, DO NOT EDIT.

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.
