forge-delegate@1.2.4

BLOCKED· startup only

Publisher claims: "MCP server that lets Claude Code, Codex or opencode hand coding work to cheaper models run by opencode." Observed in sandbox: reads credential files, sends data to opencode.ai.

What would fix thisWatchDispute verdict

Coverage

Startup only; authenticated tool behavior not tested.
Tested
install scripts, with decoy credentials in place · second launch with the clock 45 days ahead · server startup over stdio (initialize sent) · every file read, file written and host contacted by what ran
Not tested
the tool list (the server exited before answering) · what the tools do when called with real credentials

What this means for the label: Blocked 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.

Revoked: guards refuse to launch this version

confirmed incident: read ~/.npmrc; contacted opencode.ai (undeclared) Every machine running vet-skills guard stops starting it at the next launch; the state clears when the honeypot re-run or a reviewer clears it.

Before you give it your token

It will ask for
no credential variables read in the code
Where it talks to
no vendor host named in the codeAlso opencode.ai, models.dev — not the publisher's domain; check what for before connecting.
What the honeypot saw
read ~/.npmrc · contacted opencode.ai (undeclared)
What we could not test
the tool list (the server exited before answering) · what the tools do when called with real credentials

Do not connect it. The honeypot or a critical finding blocked this version; the evidence is below.

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

Is [email protected] safe to install?

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (3 scenarios; startup only; authenticated tool behavior not tested) on 2026-11-12 and scored it 26/100 (Blocked). Do not install it: the sandbox observed behaviour consistent with credential theft, exfiltration or persistence. Notable findings: Auto-update or dynamic fetch configuration; Pipe-to-shell pattern; Pipe-to-shell pattern. Summary: reads credential files, sends data to opencode.ai.
