@roarkanalytics/sdk-mcp@3.25.0
The official MCP Server for the Roark API
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is not install-time malware, but the reachable programmatic default forwards a service credential and executable code to an external endpoint. The normal CLI mitigates the path, so a warning is more proportionate than a publication 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
Trigger
A caller initializes the server without MCP options and invokes the execute tool.
Impact
A Roark bearer token and client configuration may be disclosed to the remote service, which receives code for execution.
Mechanism
Remote forwarding of credentials and supplied code to a hosted execution endpoint.
AI rationale
This is not install-time malware, but the reachable programmatic default forwards a service credential and executable code to an external endpoint. The normal CLI mitigates the path, so a warning is more proportionate than a publication block.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- A programmatic server created without options defaults its execute tool to the retired remote Stainless mode.
- That remote handler sends the Roark bearer token and merged client environment values to a Stainless endpoint.
- The worker evaluates TypeScript supplied through the execute tool.
Evidence against
- The package manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- The normal CLI defaults to local execution and rejects the retired remote mode.
- No persistence, destructive file action, or stealthy install-time behavior was found.
