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

SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV NETWORK_LOCALHOST SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    Options-Sentinel/database/database.py, line 7 # Load environment variables from .env file

  • NETWORK_LOCALHOST Note

    Calls localhost only.

    Options-Sentinel/dashboard/app.js, line 4 const statusRes = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/status');

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    Options-Sentinel/mcp_test.py, line 19 "ALPACA_API_KEY": os.getenv("ALPACA_API_KEY", ""),

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.
