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

AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB

Why this grade

  • AGENT_HIDDEN_STEP High

    Text tells the agent to hide a step or not to tell the user.

    skills/codex-claude-council/SKILL.md, line 61 - Do not start the same question again, and do not tell the user it failed: "still working" is normal. You may briefly say which step it is at.

  • OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB Medium

    Contains a long base64 shaped string in a file that should be readable.

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.

If you think this grade is wrong, email [email protected] with the entry link and your evidence. We aim to acknowledge within two working days and decide within seven. If we confirm an error, we aim to correct it within 24 hours of confirming it. These are aims, not guarantees.

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.
