Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

Causal reasoning for reliability: root cause, blast radius, and service health for agents.

Compatibility: Not stated.

Grade B

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

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

Rescanned at commit d537e28e96c0.

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    api/shell/compare_snapshots.sh, line 35 check_dependencies jq curl || exit 1

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 19 .env

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    cli/cmd_install.go, line 130 cmd := exec.Command("kubectx", "--current")

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.
