Trust score

43

Grade D

Risk flags

  • Community-authored

    Maintained by Community. Confirm the repo and signing before installing.

  • No public repository linked

    Without a public repo we cannot independently audit the code. Caution warranted.

Capability surface

  • Process spawn

    Medium risk

    Launches subprocesses via docker, npx, uvx — supply-chain risk if package is compromised.

    Evidence: node

  • Outbound network

    Medium risk

    Calls external APIs (GitHub, Slack, Stripe, etc.). Data leaves the machine.

    Evidence: api

  • Browser automation

    High risk

    Drives a real browser (Playwright, Puppeteer). Can scrape any logged-in service.

    Evidence: headless

Disclaimer

This is an automated heuristic triage. It does not replace a hand-rolled code audit. Use it to prioritise which servers deserve a deeper look — especially anything carrying high-risk capabilities like shell execution or filesystem write.
