CAUTION

Publisher claims: "Official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server & Orchestrator for Agile Monster (Cursor, Claude Code, Antigravity, Codex, Hermes, Windsurf)" Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

Where it talks to
agilemonster.com (its own)Also meerlink.com, werkinghard.com — 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 meerlink.com, werkinghard.com as well as its own vendor. The guard injects AGILEMONSTER_API_KEY, AM_API_KEY only into requests to agilemonster.com (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --secrets AGILEMONSTER_API_KEY=agilemonster.com,AM_API_KEY=agilemonster.com -- npx -y @agilemonster/mcp-server

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