Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

MCP, MCP server

io.github.cdeust/hypermnesia-mcp-viz

Standalone visualization MCP for Cortex — a live neural-graph galaxy of every project, file, symbol, memory, discussion and wiki page, plus a per-session execution trace.

Compatibility: Not stated.

Grade B

Minor issues only, no Medium or High. Worth a quick look at the findings below before installing.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    cortex_viz/handlers/open_visualization.py, line 105 locate a ``visualize_bootstrap.py`` that is then ``subprocess.run``

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    cortex_viz/handlers/open_visualization.py, line 265 with urllib.request.urlopen(base + "/", timeout=3) as resp:

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

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

    uv.lock, line 1 version = 1

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED Note

    The 400 file cap was reached before every file was read.

    uv.lock, line 1 version = 1

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.
