CAUTION· not started

Publisher claims: "MCP server shim for Prodius — lets AI agents reach you by voice" 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
PRODIUS_MCP_TOKENConfiguration, not credentials: PRODIUS_AGENT_NAME, PRODIUS_BASE_URL, PRODIUS_HOOK_DEBUG, PRODIUS_MCP_DEBUG
Where it talks to
prodius.ai (its own)Also claude.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 claude.com as well as its own vendor. The guard injects PRODIUS_MCP_TOKEN only into requests to prodius.ai (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --secrets PRODIUS_MCP_TOKEN=prodius.ai -- uvx prodius-mcp

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 76/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Pipe-to-shell pattern. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
