Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected agent configuration and skill writes are activated through explicit CLI commands. The cited network request is a documentation search, while the inspected chat hygiene code redacts credential-like content; no concrete attack behavior was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T19:34:59.137Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T19:36:07.113Z - **Download time:** 1270 ms - **Static scan time:** 2349 ms - **AI review time:** 64354 ms - **Total time:** 67976 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No attack was identified in the inspected source. Setup and skill-copy behavior are available through explicit commands, and the inspected network request performs documentation search. - **Trigger:** Running the setup or skill-install CLI, or using the MCP server. - **Impact:** These inspected behaviors do not establish unauthorized control of agent settings, credential exposure, or another concrete attack surface. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T19:36:07.113Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Setup writes package or selected client configuration; the skill command copies bundled skills. The inspected server request queries documentation using a configurable base URL. - **Rationale:** The manifest declares no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected agent configuration and skill writes are activated through explicit CLI commands. The cited network request is a documentation search, while the inspected chat hygiene code redacts credential-like content; no concrete attack behavior was established. - **Files touched:** ~/.respira/config.json, ~/.claude/skills, ~/.codex/config.toml - **Network endpoints:** https://www.respira.press ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 89.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes setup and skill installation as CLI binaries; no install lifecycle hook is declared., The configuration file is written as package configuration, and the flagged configuration precedence concerns the package's own settings., Skill installation parses explicit command-line arguments and copies bundled skills only when the CLI is run., Agent client configuration is installed through an explicit command requiring a selected client; the setup code merges configuration into that client's config file., Chat hygiene redacts credential-like content before it is returned., The inspected server network call uses a configurable base URL for documentation search and sends a search query; no credential forwarding is shown. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @respira/wordpress-mcp-server@8.4.19. - Review the evidence and your use of @respira/wordpress-mcp-server@8.4.19 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
