// key findings
⚠️
Known vulnerabilities in dependencies: 13 high
Affects packages this MCP installs at runtime. Upgrade or remove the affected dependency.
⚠️
Tests do not pass
Either the test suite is broken or the code regressed. Either way the published behaviour can’t be verified by the publisher’s own tests.
31 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
31 read-only tools verified — handlers contain no write/delete/exec
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.
🔐
You'll be asked for 2 credentials: FRED_API_KEY, MCP_CNBS_AUTH_TOKEN
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.

To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.

// quality suggestions

Tool handlers catch errors

Only 14/31 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (45%)

Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.

Tool test coverage

Only 6/31 tools referenced in tests (19%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.

Tests pass

npm test failed — tests do not pass

Make sure npm test runs cleanly. Common cause: missing build step or missing env vars.

Dev dependencies

13 critical/high in dev-only deps (does not ship to users)

Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.

// 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 4 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
