Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

MCP, MCP server

Lore Context

Lore Context, an MCP server listed in the PlugVet directory.

Compatibility: Not stated.

Grade D

Two or more Medium findings, or a High finding. Only try it in a sandbox.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

Rescanned at commit 3dafa7bbfdd3, unchanged since the check below.

SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL OBFUSCATION_MINIFIED_PAYLOAD

Why this grade

  • SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium

    Mentions a credential store path (~/.ssh, id_rsa, .npmrc, .aws/credentials, credentials.json, .netrc).

    apps/cli/src/index.ts, line 1335 return join(loreStateDir(runtime), "credentials.json");

  • OBFUSCATION_MINIFIED_PAYLOAD Medium

    Contains a very long line with almost no spaces in a script or style file.

    apps/website/src/site.mjs, line 2336 *{box-sizing:border-box}html{scroll-behavior:smooth;overflow-x:clip}body{margin:0;max-width:100%;overflow-x:clip;background:var(--paper);color:var(--ink);font-family:Inter,ui-sans-

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.

What was checked

Plain notes from the hygiene checks.

  • Permissions

    Note

    requests shell access. The manifest names this permission.

  • Install and update

    Pass

    No install-time script found, and dependencies are pinned or absent.

  • Network

    Concern

    can reach a host that is not written as a fixed address.
