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

INSTALL_UNPINNED NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV SECRETS_ENV_READ OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP

Why this grade

  • INSTALL_UNPINNED Low

    Dependencies use a range or git URL with no lockfile.

    requirements.txt, line 1 fastapi

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    scripts/check_tool_drift.sh, line 5 SID=$(curl -s -D - -o /dev/null "${H[@]}" "$MCP" \

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    mcp_server.py, line 100 " store seed in .env, pass only your public address to AgentTrust. Seed never leaves your environment.\n"

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    mcp_server.py, line 2899 "const privy = new PrivyWallet({ appId: process.env.PRIVY_APP_ID, appSecret: process.env.PRIVY_APP_SECRET });\n"

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

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

    favicon.svg, line 1 <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="1672" height="1672" viewBox="0 0 1672 1672"><image width="1672" height="1672

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.
