What we checked

Six static checks, weighted by risk. Every result reflects only what could be observed in the published package and repository — never intent.

6 checks2 clean3 flagged1 not inspected
  • Injection surface

    warn25% of grade

    Tool descriptions/manifest scanned for instruction-injection patterns (imperatives at the model, hidden text, 'ignore previous', data-exfil URLs).

    server instructions: off-vendor URL in a description (bouncewatch.com); capability text should not name where data goes.

  • Supply chain

    warn25% of grade

    Package provenance: namespace verification, repo linkage, maintainer count, account age, postinstall scripts, typosquat distance.

    no resolvable repository linked to the package (provenance unverifiable)

  • Credential hygiene

    pass15% of grade

    How the server takes secrets (env vs plaintext config vs hardcoded); secrets appearing in tool schemas.

    No hardcoded secrets, secret-shaped tool parameters, or leaked keys found. PASS = no static red flag; static analysis cannot prove the code honors env-based secret handling at runtime.

  • Permission scope

    unscannable15% of grade

    Declared tools vs. breadth (filesystem, network, exec); flags shell-exec and unbounded filesystem access.

    No source files, package.json, or pyproject were fetched; cannot infer capability scope.

  • Version behavior

    warn10% of grade

    Diff of tool definitions between versions; new permissions or changed descriptions in a patch release (the postmark-mcp class).

    vs prior 1.1.0 (minor bump): new tool "search_signals" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs); new tool "search_companies" appeared; new tool "find_company" appeared; new tool "get_company" appeared; new tool "get_company_signals" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs); new tool "refresh_company" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs); new tool "get_refresh_status" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs); new tool "watch_company" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs); new tool "check_watches" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs); new tool "get_signal_taxonomy" touches a sensitive surface (email/exec/net/fs).

  • Transport config

    pass10% of grade

    Remote servers: TLS and auth mode (none/token/OAuth). Local servers: whether the manifest indicates it phones home.

    remote endpoint "https://api.bouncewatch.com/api/v1/mcp" uses TLS (https); remote endpoint uses OAuth (strongest auth mode)

Version history

Each release plotted by grade against the safe line at B. A version that sinks below the line has lost its trusted standing — the shape of a rug-pull.
