Security Report
This MCP server is well-structured and secure. It queries the public, unauthenticated OpenAlex API for scholarly metadata with proper input validation via Zod schemas, appropriate error handling, and no credential management requirements. All network access is scoped to the single OpenAlex API endpoint. Minor code quality observations around error handling and URL normalization logic do not materially impact security. Supply chain analysis found 1 known vulnerability in dependencies (0 critical, 1 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue (1 critical, 0 high severity).
