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
PBI_AUTH_MODEPBI_GRAPH_ACCESS_TOKENPBI_SMTP_PASSWORDConfiguration, not credentials: PBI_ALLOW_OUTSIDE_WORKSPACE_READ, PBI_COMMERCIAL_MODE, PBI_DISABLE_FSL_ENGINES, PBI_EMAIL_SENDER, PBI_ENTRA_AUDIENCE, PBI_ENTRA_REQUIRED_SCOPE, PBI_ENTRA_TENANT_ID, PBI_HTTP_ALLOWED_HOSTS, PBI_HTTP_HOST, PBI_HTTP_MOUNT_PATH, PBI_HTTP_PORT, PBI_LOG_LEVEL, PBI_ORCHESTRATOR_HOME, PBI_READONLY, PBI_SESSION_TTL_HOURS, PBI_SMTP_ALLOW_INSECURE, PBI_SMTP_HOST, PBI_SMTP_PORT, PBI_SMTP_SSL, PBI_SMTP_USER, PBI_TRANSPORT, PBI_WORKSPACE_ROOT
Where it talks to
no vendor host named in the codeAlso microsoft.com, windows.net, powerbi.com, microsoftonline.com, sqlbi.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 microsoft.com, windows.net, powerbi.com, microsoftonline.com, sqlbi.com as well as its own vendor. The guard injects PBI_AUTH_MODE, PBI_GRAPH_ACCESS_TOKEN, PBI_SMTP_PASSWORD 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.

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios; not started: dependency install failed; the server itself was not observed) on 2026-11-15 and scored it 85/100 (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.
