The official MCP Server for the Roark API
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is the official Roark MCP server: install scripts are absent, and the scanner's exfiltration and malware-similarity hits are Stainless-hosted code and docs helpers plus a large embedded docs index. Command-line users run a local Deno sandbox by default, and remaining network calls go to Stainless and Roark product endpoints.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user runs the mcp-server binary or an MCP client launches it.
Impact
No unconsented install-time change, credential theft, or persistence was found.
Mechanism
User-invoked MCP tools for Roark API access and local documentation search.
AI rationale
This is the official Roark MCP server: install scripts are absent, and the scanner's exfiltration and malware-similarity hits are Stainless-hosted code and docs helpers plus a large embedded docs index. Command-line users run a local Deno sandbox by default, and remaining network calls go to Stainless and Roark product endpoints.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 86.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json publishes a user-invoked mcp-server binary and has no npm install lifecycle scripts.
- Remote Stainless code-tool handlers POST the Roark bearer token to api.stainless.com when that retired sandbox mode is selected.
- The Deno worker loads caller TypeScript through a data-URI dynamic import inside the local sandbox.
- MCP instructions are fetched from Stainless's Roark-analytics instructions API.
- local-docs-search.js is a large MiniSearch index of embedded SDK method documentation.
Evidence against
- No preinstall, install, or postinstall hooks; nothing runs until a user starts the MCP server.
- CLI default code-execution-mode is local Deno, and stainless-sandbox is rejected as retired.
- Network hosts are Stainless and Roark product endpoints, not an unrelated collector.
- Similarity hits match a shared Stainless MCP template plus a huge embedded docs file, not a hidden payload.
- No install-time agent-config writes, persistence, or secret theft to an attacker-controlled host.
