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
PINELABS_CLIENT_SECRETPINELABS_TOKEN_URLREDIS_TOKEN_TTL_SECONDSConfiguration, not credentials: CORS_ORIGINS, HTTP_TIMEOUT, LOG_FORMAT, METRICS_ENABLED, METRICS_PORT, OTLP_ENDPOINT, PII_CONFIG_PATH, PINELABS_BASE_URL, PINELABS_CLIENT_ID, PINELABS_ENV, PINELABS_TIMEOUT_SECONDS, REDIS_DB, REDIS_HOST, REDIS_MAX_CONNECTIONS, REDIS_PORT, SERVICE_NAME, TOOL_VISIBILITY_TIER, TOOLS, TRACE_CONSOLE_EXPORT, TRACE_SAMPLE_RATE
Where it talks to
pinelabsonline.com (its own)Also pinepg.in, pluralpay.in, pluralonline.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 pinepg.in, pluralpay.in, pluralonline.com as well as its own vendor. The guard injects PINELABS_CLIENT_SECRET, PINELABS_TOKEN_URL, REDIS_TOKEN_TTL_SECONDS only into requests to pinelabsonline.com (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --secrets PINELABS_CLIENT_SECRET=pinelabsonline.com,PINELABS_TOKEN_URL=pinelabsonline.com,REDIS_TOKEN_TTL_SECONDS=pinelabsonline.com -- uvx pinelabs-mcp-server

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 2026-11-14 and scored it 84/100 (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.
