Security check static checks

97 out of 100

Reads what is published about the server: package advisories, licence, secrets in the documented setup and tool permissions. Nothing is installed or run, so this is not a security assessment. Checked 2 Nov 2026 by edna-static-v1. What it checks

Licence: GPL-3.0

Low The documented install uses @kage-core/kage-graph-mcp, whose published metadata names no source repository. Check it is the right package before installing.
Note No published npm or PyPI package of this repository was found, so package advisories were not checked.
Note The lab has not recorded this server's tool list yet, so tool permissions were not checked.
