## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 0.2.1
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The post-login redirect deliberately reports the flow source and package version to the publisher’s site without a disclosed opt-out, so this is suspicious runtime telemetry. The inspected OAuth and Search Console requests send credentials and data to Google, and the redirect contains no Google token.

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:** The login success flow sends the browser to the publisher’s site with package and flow identifiers, which is undisclosed runtime telemetry.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the \`login\` command and completes Google OAuth.

- **Impact:** The publisher’s site receives the login-flow source and package version, along with ordinary browser request metadata; no Google token was observed in that redirect.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T15:16:07.574Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** After storing tokens locally, the local callback redirects the browser to \`www.getpercy.io\` with \`source=mcp-login\` and the package version.

- **Rationale:** The post-login redirect deliberately reports the flow source and package version to the publisher’s site without a disclosed opt-out, so this is suspicious runtime telemetry. The inspected OAuth and Search Console requests send credentials and data to Google, and the redirect contains no Google token.

- **Files touched:** ~/.search-console-mcp/credentials.json

- **Network endpoints:** www.getpercy.io

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** After Google sign-in, the browser is redirected to the publisher’s site with \`source=mcp-login\` and the package version in the URL., The CLI handles login only when invoked with the \`login\` command; successful authentication triggers the redirect., The package sends no Google credentials to Percy in the inspected flow; token exchange and Search Console API requests target Google.

- **Evidence against:** OAuth uses Google’s authorization and token endpoints, and requests Search Console data from Google., The package stores tokens locally in \`~/.search-console-mcp/credentials.json\`., The manifest’s \`prepublishOnly\` script builds the package; it is not an install hook.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to search-console-mcp-server@0.2.1.

- Review the evidence and your use of search-console-mcp-server@0.2.1 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.
