// 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.
🔐 secretADMIN_PASSWORD(Required if Admin UI enabled) Password for Admin UI login. Default: password (Change this!).
configADMIN_USERNAME(Required if Admin UI enabled) Username for Admin UI login. Default: admin.
configALLOWED_KEYSIf authentication is enabled on the proxy (via or ALLOWED_TOKENS), the client needs to provide the corresponding credentials.
configALLOWED_TOKENSIf authentication is enabled on the proxy (via ALLOWED_KEYS or ), the client needs to provide the corresponding credentials.

// 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 3 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
