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 (61)

  • LowAS-011

    ℹ️Missing Rate-Limit / Timeout ×7

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

    git_list_branchesgit_pullgit_pushgit_fetchgit_stashgit_remotegit_search

    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 ×36

    No metadata.dependencies or repo_url were exposed by this MCP server, and no local project manifest could be inferred from the launch command.

    Fix: Review and remediate the identified issue.

  • InfoAS-002

    ⚠️Excessive Permissions ×18

    declared capabilities: filesystem access

    git_discard_changesgit_unstagegit_stagegit_create_branchgit_delete_branchgit_update_branchgit_loggit_blamegit_diffgit_file_historygit_status

    declared capabilities: network access

    git_list_branchesgit_pullgit_fetchgit_remotegit_search

    declared capabilities: network access, filesystem access

    git_push

    declared capabilities: HTTP requests

    git_stash

    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 git-mcp"

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