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.
117 critical findings reported by cisco-skill-scanner, agent-audit-kit, 6 of them in the installed artifact. The composite score alone does not reflect this — read the per-scanner reports below.
Choose your runtime: the CLI writes the mcpServers config entry for that target.
nerlo install --target claude-code -- stackql
Install respects the composite badge: Clean proceeds, Caution prompts for confirmation, and Flagged is refused. Write operations require an API token.
4 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 576 findings across every scanner that examined this package. 106 of 117 findings rated critical by their scanner were among the dismissals.
Not reviewed is not the same as clean. Those 14 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.
290 Test or fixture file — The match is in a test or fixture. Our own check confirmed the file is not part of what gets installed.
Rules: YARA_sql_injection_generic, SQL_INJECTION_STRING_FORMAT, YARA_command_injection_generic and 16 more · Files: /repo/test/python/stackql_test_tooling/stackql_context.py, /repo/test/python/stackql_test_tooling/StackQLInterfaces.py, /repo/test/registry/src/aws/v0.1.0/services/ec2.yaml and 57 more · reported by cisco-skill-scanner, agent-audit-kit
84 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.
Rules: AAK-AGENT-001, AAK-AGENT-002, TOOL_ABUSE_UNDECLARED_NETWORK · Files: AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, /repo/repo/AGENTS.md and 3 more · reported by agent-audit-kit, cisco-skill-scanner
53 Documentation or example — The match is in documentation or sample code, confirmed by our own check to be outside the installed artifact.

31 CI or editor configuration — The match is in build, CI or editor configuration, confirmed by our own check to be outside the installed artifact.
Rules: AAK-SECRET-003, YARA_credential_harvesting_generic, AAK-GHA-IMMUTABLE-001 and 2 more · Files: .vscode/mcp.json, .vscode/launch.json, /repo/.vscode/mcp.json and 9 more · reported by agent-audit-kit, cisco-skill-scanner
1 Placeholder value — The matched literal is a placeholder or example — the kind of value a scanner reads as a secret and a human reads as a blank to fill in.
Rules: HIDDEN_DATA_FILE · Files: /repo/cicd/audit/.env.audit.example · reported by cisco-skill-scanner
These findings are in files this artifact installs and are not placeholder values. No false-positive basis can be corroborated for such a finding, so this review never dismisses one; they were not sent to the model and stand at their scanner's severity.

10 The model called these false positives and our own check did not agree, so the dismissal was refused.

Critical risks: credential exposure, shell execution, and sensitive data egress.
The artifact contains critical findings related to credential exposure in test data files and potential shell execution via command injection in a JavaScript component. Additionally, high severity findings indicate dynamic code execution in Python build scripts and sensitive data egress to the network from Python and Go components. These capabilities warrant careful review due to their potential impact.
Concern level assessed by the review: Critical. 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.
