Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

Rescanned at commit 4d09cc4d852b, unchanged since the check below.

INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT

Why this grade

  • INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT Medium

    Fetches a script from the network and runs it (a pipe to a shell, or an install hook with a URL).

    src/ollama.ts, line 92 execSync('curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh', { stdio: 'inherit' });

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.

If you think this grade is wrong, email [email protected] with the entry link and your evidence. We aim to acknowledge within two working days and decide within seven. If we confirm an error, we aim to correct it within 24 hours of confirming it. These are aims, not guarantees.

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

    Concern

    can delete files.

    PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES

    mcpb/build.mjs, line 40

    fs.rmSync(stageDir, { recursive: true, force: true });

    mcpb/build.mjs, line 95

    fs.rmSync(path.join(stageDir, 'package-lock.json'), { force: true });

    src/chrome-use/proxy.ts, line 139

    fs.unlinkSync(SOCKET_PATH);

  • Install and update

    Serious

    src/ollama.ts, line 97

    execSync('curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh', { stdio: 'inherit' });

  • Network

    Concern

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

    NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST

    scripts/doctor.mjs, line 91

    ws = new WebSocket(`ws://127.0.0.1:${port}`);

    scripts/e2e-cli-autospawn.mjs, line 74

    scripts/e2e-http-local-reconnect.mjs, line 49

    const socket = net.connect({ host: HOST, port });

  • Secrets

    Concern

    SECRETS_ENV_READ SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV

    scripts/notion-mirror.py, line 5

    TOK = os.environ.get("NOTION_API_KEY") or os.environ.get("NOTION_TOKEN") or os.environ.get("NOTION_SECRET")

    .tasks/67/decisions.md, line 55

    - evidence: `npm whoami` failed for `.env.d/npm.env` and `vibe/.env` tokens; workflow run 26485372331 shows all three token sources fail auth preflight.

    .tasks/67/decisions.md, line 67

    - reasoning: `.env.d/npm.env`, `vibe/.env`, repo secrets rotation attempts, and Bitwarden searches yielded no valid publish-capable credential for `@vibebrowser` scope.

    AGENTS.md, line 147

    - If these keys are stored outside `../vibe/.env`, export them before running eval:

    AGENTS.md, line 148

    - `set -a; source ../VibeTeam/.env; set +a`
