indexio
indexio is a code search engine for AI coding agents.
Compatibility: Not stated.
Grade C
One Medium finding. Read the report before installing.
Not a guarantee. A hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, not a security audit.
SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL
Why this grade
- SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium
Mentions a credential store path (~/.ssh, id_rsa, .npmrc, .aws/credentials, credentials.json, .netrc).

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.
