Security Report

5.2
Moderate5.2Moderate Risk

ctxfile is a well-designed local-first MCP server with strong security practices. The codebase demonstrates proper auth scope (local-only by default), secure credential handling (deny-lists, redaction), and appropriate permissions for its purpose. Minor code quality issues around error handling and the presence of an optional but enabled telemetry ping prevent a higher score, but these are low-severity findings that do not materially impact security. Supply chain analysis found 5 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (2 critical, 1 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue (1 critical, 0 high severity).
