agent-utils

One API key. Agent-native utilities for AI agents. File hosting, PII redaction, dead letter queues, and more.

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

// key findings
🚨
Secret credentials may flow to a network call
2 flows detected: TELEGRAM_REGISTRATION_BOT_TOKEN, TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN. We can’t prove the destination matches the brand the credential belongs to.
🚨
Known vulnerabilities in dependencies: 2 critical, 11 high
Affects packages this MCP installs at runtime. Upgrade or remove the affected dependency.
🔐
You'll be asked for 5 credentials: B2_APPLICATION_KEY, CRON_SECRET, RESEND_API_KEY, TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN, TELEGRAM_REGISTRATION_BOT_TOKEN
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// tools this server exposes8 tools

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

pair_connection
connection_status
create_agent

Creates a new agent. Names are unique per account. Owner-only: never exposed as an MCP tool.

rename_agent
handoff_create

Creates a handoff owned by the calling connection and returns its one-time view and submit tokens. The HTTP route applies connection rate limits.

handoff_decrypt

Returns plaintext values only to the creating connection. Uses POST /v1/handoffs/decrypt with handoffId in the body so the shared registry has a single JSON input schema.

handoff_close

Crypto-erases a handoff with the done reason. Owner revocation is intentionally owner-route-only and is never an MCP operation.

handoff_status

Any connection in the owning account may poll non-secret metadata. Uses POST /v1/handoffs/status with handoffId in the body; it never returns field values, tokens, or ciphertext metadata.

Dependencies

22 runtime dependencies (17 dev), 3 flagged: playwright, playwright-extra, puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth

All four hints declared on every tool

8/8 tools missing one or more hints — pair_connection (missing: openWorldHint); connection_status (missing: openWorldHint); create_agent (missing: openWorldHint), +5 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Production dependencies are patched

2 critical, 11 high severity in production deps — next@16.2.4 (critical), next@16.2.4 (critical)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

Dependency freshness

2/22 production deps stale: playwright-extra@2023-03-01 (3.5y), puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth@2023-04-11 (3.4y)

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 2 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
