Highest confirmed finding severity

Medium

2 confirmed security findings require attention.

Installation context

This page summarizes report evidence only. The Skill page provides the canonical install advisory.

This report does not block or authorize the manifest or ZIP.

Most static external command findings are false positives caused by markdown backticks around tool names, parameters, and examples. The real risks are the external Rube MCP endpoint, Vercel OAuth trust boundary, and write-capable Vercel workflows that can affect production deployments, DNS, project settings, and environment variables.

Hardcoded URL
**Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API k
Line 20 instructs users to configure https://rube.app/mcp as an MCP server, so the skill depends on an external network service. This is expected for Rube MCP but expands trust boundaries for Vercel data and actions.

Risk findings

Confirmed security concerns are separated from items that still need review.

Confirmed security concerns (2)

RISK-001 Medium
Third-Party MCP OAuth Trust Boundary
The skill tells users to add the Rube MCP endpoint and complete Vercel OAuth through that connection. This is an intended integration, but it gives an external MCP service access to Vercel operations and metadata.
The setup instructions explicitly name the external MCP endpoint and Vercel OAuth flow. The risk is contextual trust expansion, not hidden malicious behavior.
RISK-002 Medium
High-Impact Vercel Write Operations
The skill guides agents to create deployments, add or delete environment variables, create or update DNS records, and update project settings. These are valid DevOps actions but can disrupt production if run without approval gates.
The cited workflow steps directly include write-capable Vercel operations. The skill frames them as legitimate administration, so the finding is operational risk rather than malicious intent.

Remediation

Suggested fixes recorded by this audit. Applying them is the maintainer’s responsibility.

  1. FIX-001
    Medium
    External MCP service receives privileged Vercel access.
    Document the Rube MCP data flow, OAuth permissions, and trust boundary before users connect their Vercel account.
  2. FIX-002
    Medium
    Production and DNS workflows can cause service disruption.
    Require explicit user confirmation before production deployments, DNS create or update actions, project updates, and environment variable deletion.
  3. FIX-003
    Medium
    Environment variable workflows can handle sensitive values.
    Tell agents not to print secret values, and prefer secret or sensitive variable types when adding credentials.
  4. FIX-004
    Low
    Markdown backticks triggered external command false positives.
    Consider documenting tool names in tables or plain text if marketplace scanners treat markdown code spans as executable patterns.

Analysis metadata

Audit model: codex

Analysis state: Complete

Scope is limited to the recorded files, lines, methods, and evidence. No runtime or sandbox execution is claimed.

Verify and export

The manifest and lockfile bind install artifacts to cryptographic hashes. This integrity claim is separate from the security assessment.
