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

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    src/binance_mcp/tools/market_data.py, line 422 limit: int = Field(default=500, ge=1, le=1000, description="Number of trades to fetch (Binance max 1000).")

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    src/binance_mcp/client.py, line 188 "No Binance API key configured. Set BINANCE_API_KEY in the environment or .env "

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.
