// key findings
✅
3 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
3 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 4 credentials: AUTH_TOKEN, BIBHUB_TOKEN, MCP_READ_TOKEN, OPENALEX_API_KEY
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// 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.
🔐 secretAUTH_TOKENOptional legacy/break-glass owner bearer token. BIBHUB_TOKEN remains a compatible Node alias. A new Node install uses accounts instead.
configBIBHUB_CACHEDisposable DBLP/arXiv cache directory.
configBIBHUB_CITATION_DISCOVERYScheduled citation scans only; default false. Manual scans remain available.
configBIBHUB_DBSQLite path.
configBIBHUB_HOST/ PORT Listener, default 127.0.0.1:8788.
configBIBHUB_PUBLIC_ORIGINExact browser origin used for session and Origin checks; set the external HTTPS origin behind a proxy or tunnel.
configBIBHUB_SWEEP_INTERVAL_HOURSNode/Docker interval, default 24; 0 disables the timer.
🔐 secretBIBHUB_TOKENAUTH_TOKEN Optional legacy/break-glass owner bearer token. remains a compatible Node alias. A new Node install uses accounts instead.
configBIBHUB_WATCHLISTJSON array of arXiv discovery queries; default [] disables topic discovery. Cloudflare Workers accepts at most 5 terms per sweep to stay within the Free D1 query budget.
🔐 secretMCP_READ_TOKENOptional shared MCP compatibility token. New Node installs use one library:read token per user.
🔐 secretOPENALEX_API_KEYOptional free OpenAlex key for author enrichment and citation discovery.
configSOURCE_CODE_URLExact HTTPS source URL for this running revision; required before exposing an AGPL network instance.
configSOURCE_REVISIONFull 40- or 64-hex Git commit ID served by SOURCE_CODE_URL; required with it.
Deployment configuration, supplied by whoever hosts the server. Users are not asked for these.

// 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
