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

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED SECRETS_ENV_READ OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    canary-runner.mjs, line 43 const res = await fetch(`${EPOCH_URL}/openapi.json`);

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 7 .env

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    data/eval-corpus/raw/denoland__deno/issues.jsonl, line 89 {"schema_version":1,"collector_version":2,"collected_at":"2026-09-25T16:27:05.650Z","issue":{"repo":"denoland/deno","number":35994,"state":"closed","title":"BUG: deno compile on Wi

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    canary-runner.mjs, line 33 GLM_AUTH_TOKEN: !!process.env.GLM_AUTH_TOKEN,

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

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

    Research/llm_time.agent.final.converted.md, line 1 # LLM Temporal Reasoning & Time Estimation: Research Compendium and Build Documentation

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.

What was checked
