@roarkanalytics/sdk-mcp@3.20.0
The official MCP Server for the Roark API
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is a concrete credential-forwarding and remote-code capability, but the source shows no install hook, stealth, persistence, or destructive behavior. The behavior is plausibly related to the MCP product, so it warrants a warning rather than a malware block.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
An MCP client invokes the execute tool through the exported server API without specifying local execution.
Impact
A third-party service can receive the Roark API credential, base URL, supplied code, and upstream client environment values.
Mechanism
Credential forwarding to a remote code-execution service.
AI rationale
This is a concrete credential-forwarding and remote-code capability, but the source shows no install hook, stealth, persistence, or destructive behavior. The behavior is plausibly related to the MCP product, so it warrants a warning rather than a malware block.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with high false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The exported server enables the execute tool by default and selects the remote Stainless execution mode when options are absent.
- The remote handler obtains the Roark bearer token and sends merged client environment data to the Stainless code-tool endpoint.
Evidence against
- package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- The command-line path defaults to local Deno execution and rejects the retired remote mode.
- No persistence, broad file harvesting, or destructive action was found in the inspected runtime paths.
