Risk Summary

Safe With Normal Controls

Dep Visibility is the main signal, but overall risk remains within an acceptable range.

Potential impact: This finding indicates the tool should be reviewed before it is trusted.

Recommended action: No high-risk findings were detected in this scan, but you should still apply least-privilege defaults and rescan after changes.

Suggested policy: keep this tool behind manual approval, do not allow unattended runs, and re-scan after narrowing risky permissions.

Security Findings (19)

  • LowAS-011

    ℹ️Missing Rate-Limit / Timeout ×4

    tool performs network or execution operations but declares no rate-limit, timeout, or retry configuration

    devpilot_rundevpilot_attachdevpilot_logdevpilot_health_check

    Fix: Declare explicit rate-limit, timeout, and retry configuration for all network and execution tools. Implement exponential back-off and surface resource state to the calling agent.

  • InfoAS-014

    ℹ️Dependency Inventory Unavailable ×10

    Tool did not expose metadata.dependencies or repo_url, so supply-chain coverage is limited.

    devpilot_statusdevpilot_changeddevpilot_rundevpilot_attachdevpilot_stopdevpilot_initdevpilot_updevpilot_logdevpilot_cleanupdevpilot_health_check

    Fix: Review and remediate the identified issue.

  • InfoAS-002

    ⚠️Excessive Permissions ×5

    declared capabilities: network access, filesystem access

    devpilot_changed

    declared capabilities: code/command execution, network access, filesystem access

    devpilot_run

    declared capabilities: code/command execution, network access, HTTP requests

    devpilot_attach

    declared capabilities: HTTP requests

    devpilot_log

    declared capabilities: network access

    devpilot_health_check

    Fix: Tool requests broad permissions (exec/fs/network). Validate input parameters using Enums where possible, and restrict file system operations to explicit allowed directories.

Scan this tool yourself

Reproduce this audit locally, integrate into CI, or let your agent audit its own tools.

Install once, then scan any MCP server:

$ curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AgentSafe-AI/tooltrust-scanner/main/install.sh | bash
$ tooltrust-scanner scan --server "npx -y dev-machine-guard"

Adjust the package name if your npm registry name differs from the tool ID. View source
