clearcote-mcp@r1

CAUTION· install only

Publisher claims: "Drive Clearcote, a Chromium build with its fingerprint protection patched into the engine, from any MCP client: about 20 tools to navigate, read, extract, click, fill, screenshot and keep sessions, plus a CDP endpoint that hands the same browser to Playwright or Puppeteer. The server lives in the repo's mcp/ folder (npx clearcote-mcp or pip install clearcote-mcp)." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

What this means for the label: Caution here covers what ran. The server's tools were not exercised with a real credential, so nothing about their behavior is asserted; the credential summary below says what to do with that.

What the honeypot saw
no credential files read · no network
What we could not test
use of the skill by an agent

Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard, and read the third-party hosts first. The code names googlesource.com, coherence-a.test, probe-b.test, openrouter.ai, docker.com, ipify.org, icanhazip.com, ip-api.com, tool.example, mux.invalid as well as its own vendor. The guard injects CC_SECRETS_FILE, CLEARCOTE_API_KEY, CLEARCOTE_LICENSE_KEY, GITHUB_TOKEN, OPENROUTER_API_KEY, OWNER_TOKEN_LABEL, RUN_TOKEN_ENV, SIGNING_KEY_FPR only into requests to clearcotelabs.com (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --secrets CC_SECRETS_FILE=clearcotelabs.com,CLEARCOTE_API_KEY=clearcotelabs.com,CLEARCOTE_LICENSE_KEY=clearcotelabs.com,GITHUB_TOKEN=clearcotelabs.com,OPENROUTER_API_KEY=clearcotelabs.com,OWNER_TOKEN_LABEL=clearcotelabs.com,RUN_TOKEN_ENV=clearcotelabs.com,SIGNING_KEY_FPR=clearcotelabs.com -- <the server's command>

Never paste a credential into a chat, a ticket or a report, including ours. How the guard holds it.

Is clearcote-mcp@r1 safe to install?

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (1 scenario; nothing executable in the bundle ran; the trace covers the install step only) on 2026-11-11 and scored it 68/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Auto-update or dynamic fetch configuration; Credential pass-through configuration; URL with embedded credentials. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
