CAUTIONPublisher claims: "专为 AI Agent 打造的网络流量抓包、会话检索、链路质量诊断、请求重放与规则 Mock 的全功能 MCP Server" Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
Is [email protected] safe to install?
KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios) on 2026-10-27 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: Fake instruction boundary tag; Privileged sudo command; Privileged sudo command. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
