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

Rescanned at commit e49dd0c5eaba, unchanged since the check below.

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    src/projectmem/commands/dashboard.py, line 755 fetch('https://pypi.org/pypi/projectmem/json').then(function(r){return r.json();})

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    src/projectmem/commands/auto_capture.py, line 376 # `.github/`, `.husky/`, `.gitignore`, `.env.example`, `.eslintrc.json`.

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    src/projectmem/staleness.py, line 183 result = subprocess.run(

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

    A file was over the read cap and was not fully read.

    src/projectmem/commands/visualize.py, line 1 from __future__ import annotations

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.
