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

Rescanned at commit d1ae5600e972, unchanged since the check below.

SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED

Why this grade

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 5 /.env

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    internal/adaptors/sourcehash/sourcehash.go, line 95 cmd := exec.Command("git", "-C", dir, "ls-files", ".") //nolint:gosec // dir comes from trusted caller, git arguments are fixed

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED Note

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

    internal/messages/errortomessage.go, line 1 // Code generated by cpi-go-message-catalog/v2. DO NOT EDIT.

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.
