// key findings
🚨
Secret credentials may flow to a network call
1 flow detected: SETTLEGRID_API_KEY. We can’t prove the destination matches the brand the credential belongs to.
🚨
Known vulnerabilities in dependencies: 2 critical, 1 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.
🔐
You'll be asked for 1 credential: SETTLEGRID_API_KEY
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// known CVEs in dependencies2 critical1 high

Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.

criticalvitest@2.1.0GHSA-5xrq-8626-4rwp

When Vitest UI server is listening, arbitrary file can be read and executed

criticalvitest@2.1.0GHSA-9crc-q9x8-hgqq

Vitest allows Remote Code Execution when accessing a malicious website while Vitest API server is listening

high@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.0.0GHSA-w48q-cv73-mx4w

Model Context Protocol (MCP) TypeScript SDK does not enable DNS rebinding protection by default

// environment variables
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.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

6/6 tools missing one or more hints — search_tools (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_tool (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_categories (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +3 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.

Tool inputs are validated

Only 0/6 tool handlers declare input schemas (0%)

Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.

License file

No license file

Add a LICENSE file (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.).

Tool test coverage

Only 0/6 tools referenced in tests (0%)

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.

Secrets stay with their owner

1 secret/sensitive value flow into network calls (SETTLEGRID_API_KEY → dynamic)

Audit where credentials are sent. A NOTION_TOKEN should only reach api.notion.com — never a third-party host.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 1 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.0.0 (high)

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

Dev dependencies

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

Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.

Domain consistency

npm scope @settlegrid doesn't match GitHub owner lexwhiting

Use the same org name across GitHub, npm, and your homepage so users can verify the publisher.

Claim the listing to review these findings one by one and send us a correction where you disagree, straight to the team. Claiming also means we tell you when the grade moves, and reach you first if we find anything urgent.

// 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 10 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
