Coverage

Not started: dependency install failed; the server itself was not observed.
Tested
the dependency install step · every file read, file written and host contacted by what ran
Not tested
server startup · the tool list · tool behavior

What this means for the label: Verified 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.

Before you give it your token

It will ask for
MCP_NETWORK_API_KEYS_FILEMCP_NETWORK_DASHBOARD_REQUIRE_AUTHMCP_NETWORK_REQUIRE_AUTHMCP_NETWORK_SESSION_SECRET or --require-authConfiguration, not credentials: CONSUMER_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MINUTE, MCP_NETWORK_ALLOW_ANON_CONSUMER, MCP_NETWORK_CACHE_TTL, MCP_NETWORK_COLLECTOR, MCP_NETWORK_CORS_ORIGINS, MCP_NETWORK_ENABLE_AUDIT, MCP_NETWORK_ENV, MCP_NETWORK_GLOBAL_RPM, MCP_NETWORK_HTTP_HOST, MCP_NETWORK_HTTP_PATH, MCP_NETWORK_HTTP_PORT, MCP_NETWORK_PROMETHEUS_URL, MCP_NETWORK_STDIO_MODE, MCP_NETWORK_TOPOLOGY_FILE, MCP_NETWORK_TRANSPORT
Where it talks to
no vendor host named in the codeAlso google.com, team-cymru.com, amazon.com, azure.com, cloudflarestatus.com, pagerduty.com, slack.com, discord.com, your-webhook.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
server startup · the tool list · tool behavior

Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard, and read the third-party hosts first. The code names google.com, team-cymru.com, amazon.com, azure.com, cloudflarestatus.com, pagerduty.com, slack.com, discord.com, your-webhook.com as well as its own vendor. The guard injects MCP_NETWORK_API_KEYS_FILE, MCP_NETWORK_DASHBOARD_REQUIRE_AUTH, MCP_NETWORK_REQUIRE_AUTH, MCP_NETWORK_SESSION_SECRET only into requests to the host you bind (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --net declared -- uvx mcp-network

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; not started: dependency install failed; the server itself was not observed) on 2026-11-08 and scored it 83/100 (Verified). In what ran, nothing we could detect went wrong: no undeclared network egress, no credential reads, no persistent instruction writes. What it does with a real credential was not observed; the static findings and the publisher carry the rest of the score. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
