The publisher performed an authenticated act of publication — proving control of a namespace in the official MCP registry, or appearing in a first-party catalogue an operator curates. That establishes WHO published it. It is not a security finding, and attested artifacts carry Flagged verdicts too.
Choose your runtime: the CLI writes the mcpServers config entry for that target.
nerlo install --target claude-code -- agent-observatory
Install respects the composite badge: Clean proceeds, Caution prompts for confirmation, and Flagged is refused. Write operations require an API token.
7 of 11 scanners examined this package. The rest do not apply to it — language, ecosystem and packaging decide which analyzers can say anything, and a scanner that cannot examine an artifact reports nothing rather than passing it.

Findings in files this artifact installs stand as reported; a model re-read the rest and said which ones it believes are false positives. This is a second opinion published beside the evidence, not a correction to it: the per-scanner reports above are unchanged, every dismissed finding is still listed there at its original severity, and the score and the Flagged badge are computed from those raw severities alone. Nothing below moved them.
Out of 16 findings across every scanner that examined this package.
Not reviewed is not the same as clean. Those 2 findings stand exactly as their scanners reported them, at full severity, as they would have without this review.
Two keys had to turn. The model had to name a reason from a fixed list of six, and a deterministic check of ours — over which files this artifact actually installs — had to independently agree. Anything it could not corroborate is in “not reviewed” above, at full severity.
3 Agent instruction file — The match is in a file that instructs an AI coding agent — a CLAUDE.md or similar. It is documentation of intent, and our own check confirmed it is not part of what gets installed.

The model could have called any of these a false positive and did not.

2 The model called these false positives and our own check did not agree, so the dismissal was refused.
Rules: SOCIAL_ENG_VAGUE_DESCRIPTION, MANIFEST_MISSING_LICENSE · Files: /repo/SKILL.md · reported by cisco-skill-scanner
Secrets exposed, network egress, and executable scripts detected.
This artifact contains multiple high-severity findings, including exposed secrets in several route files and `src/lib/challenge.ts`. It performs network egress using secrets from `/repo/src/lib/store.ts`. Additionally, hidden executable scripts are present in `.well-known` route files. These findings indicate capabilities for credential access, network communication, and shell execution.
Concern level assessed by the review: High. This is the review's scale, not the registry badge.
Reviewed by gemini-2.5-flash. The model sees the findings, not your code, and cannot change a score.
