We found multiple concerning patterns in this package. Some of these might be legitimate (for example, a build tool might need to run commands), but you should review each finding below and decide if the explanations make sense for what this package claims to do.
What We Found(21 issues)
Each card explains what was found and what it means in plain English. Click "Technical details" for the full breakdown.
Caution. This package can open a terminal on your computer and run any command it wants — with YOUR permissions. It could delete files, install malware, or steal your data without you seeing anything happen.
Technical details
Importing child_process gives the package ability to spawn shell commands. MCP servers should not need to execute arbitrary system commands.
import { execFile } from "child_process"Caution. This package can open a terminal on your computer and run any command it wants — with YOUR permissions. It could delete files, install malware, or steal your data without you seeing anything happen.

import { execFile } from "child_process"Caution. This package runs system commands on your computer. This is like giving someone the keys to your terminal. They could run anything — download files, change settings, or access your private data.
Technical details
Direct process execution functions (exec, spawn) can run arbitrary commands. Combined with user input, this enables remote code execution.

exec(Risky. This package doesn't lock its dependency versions. That means if one of its dependencies gets hacked tomorrow, you'd automatically download the hacked version. Good packages always pin their versions.
Technical details
Using '*' or 'latest' as a dependency version means any future version will be installed automatically — including compromised ones.
"latest"Risky. This package doesn't lock its dependency versions. That means if one of its dependencies gets hacked tomorrow, you'd automatically download the hacked version. Good packages always pin their versions.
Technical details
Using '*' or 'latest' as a dependency version means any future version will be installed automatically — including compromised ones.
"latest"Suspicious. This package loads code from an unknown location decided at runtime. We can't tell what it will actually run because it depends on a variable. This makes it harder to verify the package is safe.
Technical details
Dynamic require/import with variable arguments loads code determined at runtime. This can be used to load payloads that static analysis can't detect.
