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

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    src/zai_yandex/management.py, line 997 result = await adapter.http.request(

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    scripts/check_engineering.py, line 23 ENV_EXAMPLES = (".env.example", ".env.sample", ".env.template")

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    scripts/check_engineering.py, line 57 result = subprocess.run( # noqa: S603 -- fixed read-only Git command, no shell

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    src/zai_yandex/config.py, line 296 public_path = os.environ.get("YANDEX_MCP_PUBLIC_KEY_FILE", "")

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.
