parapetai-mcp@0.8.1
CAUTION· not startedPublisher claims: "MCP server for Claude Code (and other MCP clients): device-code login to a Parapet control plane, provisioning agents, and pulling the exact quickstart config a codebase needs -- ships eight packaged skills: parapet-maf/parapet-adk/parapet-langgraph (retrofit an existing project per framework), parapet-quickdemo (generate a demo from nothing), parapet-install-prereqs, parapet-audit/parapet-audit-fix (scan for and wrap ungoverned calls), and parapet-identity (per-tool vendor/credential tracking)." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
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: Caution 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
GOOGLE_API_KEYOPENAI_API_KEYConfiguration, not credentials: GOOGLE_MODEL, OPENAI_BASE_URL, OPENAI_CHAT_MODEL, PARAPETAI_ACCOUNT_ID, PARAPETAI_AGENT_ID, PARAPETAI_CONTROL_PLANE_URL, PARAPETAI_MCP_CONFIG_DIR, PARAPETAI_MODE, PARAPETAI_PERSIST_POLICY_DIR- Where it talks to
- no vendor host named in the codeAlso parapet.run, githubusercontent.com, astral.sh — 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 parapet.run, githubusercontent.com, astral.sh as well as its own vendor. The guard injects GOOGLE_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY only into requests to the host you bind (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.
Never paste a credential into a chat, a ticket or a report, including ours. How the guard holds it.
Is [email protected] safe to install?
KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios; not started: dependency install failed; the server itself was not observed) on 2026-11-14 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: Privileged sudo command; Direct script execution from GitHub raw URL; Access to sensitive file paths. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
