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

Rescanned at commit 38cdeea1da68, unchanged since the check below.

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.

    client/needrail-webmcp.js, line 30 var response = await fetch("/needs/" + encodeURIComponent(p.need_id) + "/fund", { headers: { accept: "application/json" } });

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    docs/GO_LIVE.md, line 7 - Human client · export→seed · CI · `.env.example`

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.
