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 checks1 clean3 flagged2 not inspected
  • Injection surface

    unscannable25% of grade

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

    No tool descriptions, server instructions, prompts, or resources were fetched; nothing to scan for injection.

  • Supply chain

    pass25% of grade

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

    repository linkage verified

  • Credential hygiene

    warn15% of grade

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

Reads secrets from the environment (e.g. src/kiln/__init__.py) — the recommended intake shape.

  • Permission scope

    warn15% of grade

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

    has both shell/exec and network egress — capable of download-and-run, though no such path was observed (src/kiln/generation/gemini.py: subprocess.* call; src/kiln/agent_loop.py: outbound HTTP/socket call). has both shell/exec and destructive filesystem writes (src/kiln/generation/gemini.py: subprocess.* call; src/kiln/auto_orient.py: open(…, 'w'/'a'/'x') write-mode file access). discloses shell/exec capability: 4 files (src/kiln/generation/gemini.py, src/kiln/generation/openscad.py, src/kiln/printers/bambu.py, +1 more) discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: 21 files (src/kiln/auto_orient.py, src/kiln/backup.py, src/kiln/cli/main.py, +18 more) Capability DISCLOSURE, not a verdict: static analysis sees the primitive is present and reachable, not whether its use is attacker-controlled.

  • Version behavior

    unscannable10% of grade

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

    no prior version to diff (first sight of io.github.codeofaxel/[email protected]); version-drift / rug-pull cannot be evaluated. Cold-start risk is covered by point-in-time checks (injection_surface, supply_chain, credential_hygiene), not here.

  • Transport config

    warn10% of grade

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

    manifest/source references telemetry behavior — disclosure

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.
