Coverage

Server started and answered tools/list.
Tested
MCP initialize and tools/list · every tool description, for hidden instructions · every file read, file written and host contacted by what ran
Not tested
what the tools do when called with real credentials

Before you give it your token

It will ask for
DB_PROXY_TOKENMYSQL_MCP_PASSWORDConfiguration, not credentials: APP_GROUP, CONFIG_PATH, DB_PROXY_URL, MCP_LOG_DIR, MYSQL_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE, MYSQL_MCP_DATABASE, MYSQL_MCP_DB_TYPE, MYSQL_MCP_DEFAULT_EXPORT_MAX_ROWS, MYSQL_MCP_DEFAULT_MAX_CELL_LENGTH, MYSQL_MCP_DEFAULT_MAX_ROWS, MYSQL_MCP_HOST, MYSQL_MCP_PORT, MYSQL_MCP_SQLITE_PATH, MYSQL_MCP_USERNAME, PROXY_APP_NAME, PROXY_APP_PATH, PROXY_URL
Where it talks to
no vendor host named in the codeAlso react.dev — not the publisher's domain; check what for before connecting.
What the honeypot saw
no credential files read · no network
What we could not test
what the tools do when called with real credentials

Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard, and read the third-party hosts first. The code names react.dev as well as its own vendor. The guard injects DB_PROXY_TOKEN, MYSQL_MCP_PASSWORD only into requests to the host you bind (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --net declared -- npx -y @imenam/database-mcp

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

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios) on 2026-11-14 and scored it 83/100 (Verified). It did what it claims and nothing else we could detect: no undeclared network egress, no credential reads, no persistent instruction writes. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
