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

Why this grade

  • INSTALL_UNPINNED Low

    Dependencies use a range or git URL with no lockfile.

    package.json, line 13 @modelcontextprotocol/sdk

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    auth-server.cjs, line 500 await fetch(`${UPSTREAM}/mcp`, { method: 'DELETE', headers: { 'mcp-session-id': sessionId } });

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    ynab.ts, line 5 const ENV_PATH = resolve(DIR, ".env");

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    ynab.ts, line 25 if (process.env.YNAB_API_TOKEN) {

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.
