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.

Rescanned at commit 27f6ac9062b8, unchanged since the check below.

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_UNCONFIRMED SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    config.js, line 160 try { fs.unlinkSync(tmp); } catch {}

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    auto-update.js, line 35 const response = await fetch('https://www.slashvibe.dev/api/version', {

  • SECRETS_PATH_UNCONFIRMED Low

    The Secrets check reports a credential or environment file, but no quoted line shows a recognisable path.

    tools/_no-escapes-by-default.test.js, line 45 assert.match(m[1], /process\.env\.VIBE_TERM_ESCAPES/,

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    tools/admin-inbox.js, line 58 const adminToken = process.env.VIBE_ADMIN_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.
