Web scraping is not really in the SRE toolbox. The tool itself looks functional but I'd flag this as out-of-scope for infra work. Neutral o…
03SECURITYWHAT WE CHECKED
Security flags foundOur static scan found signals worth reviewing before you trust this with an agent. See exactly what, per check, below.
Telemetry disclosureUndisclosed egress detected.Static checks found network calls the docs do not mention. Disclosed telemetry is common and fine, silent telemetry is the finding.
Security tierTier 2, Networked.Reaches the live web, but needs no secrets. What tiers mean
Install-time hooks & dependenciesno flags
Code that runs when you install it, before you ever call a tool.
Runs code / shell commands4 findings
INFOtests/check-descriptions.mjs:15 — Code-execution call site (node child_process) in TEST code. Down-weighted to informational: this is the test exercising the server, not the server's runtime surface.

Permission scope breadthno flags
How much access it asks for versus what its job needs.
How to read this: these are static checks over the source at a point in time. They catch the patterns above, not everything. Absence of a flag is not absence of danger, and a tool that runs cleanly can still behave differently once installed. We do not call any tool simply "safe". Runtime-behavior checks are the next layer we are adding.
