Automated checks

StatusCheckPolicyResult
PASS Listed on the official MCP registry §1.1
Listed on registry.modelcontextprotocol.io as com.arcself/arc-security. 1 finding
  • Registry entry: com.arcself/arc-security
FAIL Source repository is public and maintained §1.2

Claimed source repository does not exist (or is private).

WARN Published package is consistent and attested §1.3
Minor integrity gaps: no npm provenance attestation. 6 findings
  • Package: arc-security-mcp@0.5.1
  • Ecosystem: npm
  • Age: 160 days
  • Weekly downloads: 73
  • Repo field matches source repo: true
  • Build-provenance attestation: absent
PASS Tool surface is inspectable and proportionate §2.1–§2.4
Package source scanned. Capabilities detected: process-execution, filesystem, network-egress. Reported as capability risk (§2.4); whether each is essential to the server's stated purpose is §2.3 and remains a manual judgement. 8 findings
  • process-execution (child process execution): bin/arc-security-mcp.js
  • process-execution (child process module import): bin/arc-security-mcp.js
  • filesystem (filesystem write/delete): bin/arc-security-mcp.js
  • filesystem (fs module import): bin/arc-security-mcp.js
  • process-execution (child process execution): server.py
  • process-execution (dynamic code evaluation): server.py
  • network-egress (outbound network calls): server.py
  • Detected capabilities: process-execution, filesystem, network-egress
INFO Transport & authentication §3

Local (stdio) server: runs with host-process privileges by design. Transport checks apply to remote servers; scrutiny shifts to §1/§2.

PASS No known vulnerabilities (OSV.dev) §4.1

No advisories on record for arc-security-mcp @0.5.1 (npm).

UNVERIFIABLE Server-supplied instructions free of poisoning indicators §5.1–§5.4

No server-supplied instructions or tool descriptions were obtainable to scan.

What this grade covers
  • Provenance & supply-chain integrity (§1)
  • Tool surface & capability risk (§2)
  • Transport & authentication (§3)
  • Known CVEs via OSV.dev (§4)
  • Instruction/tool poisoning patterns (§5)

Limitations: pattern-based only (no semantic injection detection), static npm analysis (live server instructions not retrieved for package-only scans), single-server scope (no cross-server toxic flow analysis). See the full policy.
