A Why this grade

Started at 100 and nothing was deducted: the deterministic scan raised no scored threat in the published surface it inspected. Capability observations and advisory notes are recorded but never lower the score.

Findings 7

high Shell/command execution in server code (dist/common/utils.js)MTC-SRC-002

In the server's implementation (`dist/common/utils.js:1`): Spawning a shell/process is command-execution capability; with unsanitized tool input it is command injection / RCE. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: child_process

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server dist/common/utils.js

medium Hardcoded egress to an external endpoint (dist/index.js)MTC-SRC-003

In the server's implementation (`dist/index.js:24`): A hardcoded outbound call to a fixed external host inside server code is a classic exfiltration/telemetry channel — especially paired with reads of local data. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: fetch(`https://api.github.com/users/${username}`

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server dist/index.js

medium Hardcoded egress to an external endpoint (dist/operations/api/branch.js)MTC-SRC-003

In the server's implementation (`dist/operations/api/branch.js:13`): A hardcoded outbound call to a fixed external host inside server code is a classic exfiltration/telemetry channel — especially paired with reads of local data. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: fetch(`https://api.github.com/repos/${owner}/${repository}/git/refs/heads/${branchName}`

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server dist/operations/api/branch.js

medium Hardcoded egress to an external endpoint (dist/operations/api/issues.js)MTC-SRC-003

In the server's implementation (`dist/operations/api/issues.js:6`): A hardcoded outbound call to a fixed external host inside server code is a classic exfiltration/telemetry channel — especially paired with reads of local data. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: fetch(`https://api.github.com/repos/${owner}/${repository}/issues`

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server dist/operations/api/issues.js

medium Hardcoded egress to an external endpoint (dist/operations/api/pull-requests.js)MTC-SRC-003

In the server's implementation (`dist/operations/api/pull-requests.js:6`): A hardcoded outbound call to a fixed external host inside server code is a classic exfiltration/telemetry channel — especially paired with reads of local data. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: fetch(`https://api.github.com/repos/${owner}/${repository}/pulls`

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

What this scan could not see

Versions

Scan history per published version. The engine is deterministic — the same version always yields the same score, so a changed score means the package itself changed.

Embed this score

Show this server's live Trust Score in your README, docs or website. The badge is served straight from the registry and updates automatically after every rescan — no API key needed. It links back to this page, so anyone who sees the grade can also read the findings behind it instead of taking a number on faith.
