Is Ekwo OS MCP server safe?

No malicious indicators - review capabilities before installing
Notable — review in context (capabilities are not malware):
  • Dangerous MCP tool capability
  • Node.js network egress
  • MCP tool surface detected

What to do: Nothing here argues against installing it. Grant the capabilities it lists only if you expect the tool to need them.

Ekwo OS MCP server is an npm package analyzed by SkillTotal's deterministic static scanner. The scan found no malicious indicators. It can: mcp tools detected and network egress — capabilities are what the code can do, not a verdict on intent. Risk score 0/100 (low).

Findings (3)

HIGHDangerous MCP tool capabilityST-MCP-DANGEROUS-TOOL

An MCP tool exposes a powerful capability (files, shell, network, browser, or credentials).

server.registerTool('list_api_keys', {
server.registerTool('create_api_key', {
server.registerTool('revoke_api_key', {

Why it matters: Wired into an agent, these grant it real access to your machine — confirm each is required.

Fix: Confirm each powerful tool is required and constrained; broad MCP tools (shell/filesystem/network) grant an agent significant host access.

MEDIUMNode.js network egressST-NET-NODE

The component makes outbound network requests.

import type { IncomingMessage, ServerResponse } from 'node:http';

Why it matters: Usually legitimate, but confirm the destinations are expected and no sensitive data leaves.

Fix: Confirm the destination hosts are expected and that no sensitive data is sent off-host.

LOWMCP tool surface detectedST-MCP-DETECTED

An MCP tool surface (manifest or tool definitions) was found.

await server.connect(new StdioServerTransport());
const server = new McpServer({ name: SERVER_NAME, version: SERVER_VERSION }, { instructions: instructionsFor(options) });
server.registerTool('list_companies', {
server.registerTool('get_company', {
server.registerTool('list_accounts', {
server.registerTool('search_contacts', {
server.registerTool('list_documents', {
server.registerTool('get_document', {
server.registerTool('get_preferences', {
server.registerTool('list_api_keys', {
server.registerTool('list_invitations', {
server.registerTool('list_shares', {
server.registerTool('list_bank_transactions', {
server.registerTool('trial_balance', {
server.registerTool('general_ledger', {
server.registerTool('aged_balance', {
server.registerTool('vat_return', {
server.registerTool('ec_sales_list', {
server.registerTool('portfolio_upcoming_filings', {
server.registerTool('portfolio_filings_touched_since', {
server.registerTool('list_statements', {
server.registerTool('financial_statement', {
server.registerTool('generate_fec', {
server.registerTool('describe_pack', {
server.registerTool('status', {

Why it matters: Just context — review which tools it offers and their permissions.

Fix: Review the declared MCP tools and their permissions.
