A fix the maintainer can act on, with the evidence attached. It opens under your GitHub account in your browser; KillerSkills holds no token and never modifies the package. The fix is verified the only way we verify anything: the next crawl re-runs the new version in the honeypot. 70 · Caution
Evidence
The sandbox observed nothing beyond the static findings; the proposal cites those.

Zero-context hunks: apply with git apply --unidiff-zero fix.patch on the tagged source of 3.1.0. If the behavior is intended, declare it (host under permissions.network, a line in the README) instead of removing it; the next crawl scores declarations.
Issue / PR body
Title: mcp-ssh-manager: References a credential file in the home directory (KillerSkills verdict caution 70)
## What the honeypot observed KillerSkills ran **[email protected]** in an isolated sandbox (decoy credentials, recording proxy, syscall trace; engine 1.8.1) and scored it **CAUTION 70/100**. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory. - See the findings below. Full trace and findings: https://killerskills.ai/skills/npm/mcp-ssh-manager/3.1.0 ## Findings with a location - `cli/commands/server.sh:43` · References a credential file in the home directory — cli/commands/server.sh:43 · References a credential file in the home directory - `cli/lib/menu.sh:149` · References a credential file in the home directory — cli/lib/menu.sh:149 · References a credential file in the home directory - `src/tool-config-manager.js:16` · Reads credential paths from the home directory — src/tool-config-manager.js:16 · Reads credential paths from the home directory - `cli/lib/menu.sh:309` · References a credential file in the home directory — cli/lib/menu.sh:309 · References a credential file in the home directory - `cli/lib/menu.sh:150` · References a credential file in the home directory — cli/lib/menu.sh:150 · References a credential file in the home directory - `cli/lib/menu.sh:152` · References a credential file in the home directory — cli/lib/menu.sh:152 · References a credential file in the home directory ## Proposed change The attached patch removes the 6 lines above. If the behavior is intended, the fix is to declare it instead: list the host under `permissions.network` (or the MCP manifest) and say in the README why the package needs it; the next crawl will re-score it with the declaration taken into account. ## How this will be verified Nothing is "verified safe" by assertion. When a new version is published, KillerSkills re-runs it in the honeypot and the verdict page updates; you can trigger it early from the verdict page ("Re-scan after I publish a fix"). Reply here or at [email protected] if you believe the verdict is wrong; disputes are reviewed by a person and the outcome is published on the verdict page. _Proposed through killerskills.ai/threats by a user of the package, under their own GitHub account. The evidence is public; the package was never modified by KillerSkills._

We count proposals opened, not merged: a merge shows up as a new version that the crawl re-runs. Disputes: the maintainer can contest the verdict from its page; a person reviews it and the outcome is published.
