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

Rescanned at commit 60388c6c4ec0, unchanged since the check below.

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    src/lib/bounded-body.ts, line 1 // Reads a fetch() Response body up to a byte cap, refusing to buffer past

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    MCP-LEARNINGS.md, line 57 - **`Bun.spawn` vs `node:child_process.spawn` differ in failure mode**: Bun

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    src/lib/socrata.ts, line 87 const token = options.appToken ?? process.env.SOCRATA_APP_TOKEN;

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.
