mcp-chest-memory

Provides a persistent, local-first memory for coding agents over MCP, enabling automatic recall and recording of past work, failures, and decisions to reduce repetition and token usage.

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
⚠️
Known vulnerabilities in dependencies: 1 high
Affects packages this MCP installs at runtime. Upgrade or remove the affected dependency.
8 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
4 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 1 credential: CHEST_API_TOKEN
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// known CVEs in dependencies1 high5 low

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

high@hono/node-server@1.14.0GHSA-wc8c-qw6v-h7f6

@hono/node-server has authorization bypass for protected static paths via encoded slashes in Serve Static Middleware

@hono/node-server: Middleware bypass via repeated slashes in serveStatic

lowhono@4.12.18GHSA-2gcr-mfcq-wcc3

Hono: app.mount() strips mount prefix using undecoded path, causing incorrect routing for percent-encoded paths

Hono: Cookie helper does not sanitize sameSite and priority, allowing Set-Cookie injection

Tool inputs are validated

Only 0/8 tool handlers declare input schemas (0%)

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

Tool test coverage

4/8 tools referenced in tests (50%)

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

Shell command execution

8 child_process calls — runs shell commands

Prefer library functions over shell-outs. If you must shell out, ensure all inputs are properly escaped.

No arbitrary install scripts

Has postinstall/preinstall script — runs arbitrary code on npm install

Remove postinstall/preinstall hooks unless they’re essential.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 1 high severity in production deps — @hono/node-server@1.14.0 (high), @hono/node-server@1.14.0 (low)

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

Dependency freshness

2/12 production deps stale: sudachi@2022-05-18 (4.1y), kuromoji@2022-06-19 (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 5 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
