Is Graphlit MCP server safe?

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

graphlit-mcp-server is an AI npm_package analyzed by SkillTotal's deterministic static scanner. The scan found no malicious indicators, though 3 risky constructs are reported for review. It can: filesystem read, 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.tool(
    "screenshotPage",
server.tool(
    "sendWebHookNotification",

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 filesystem readST-FS-NODE-READ

The component reads files from disk.

const fileData = fs.readFileSync(filePath);

Why it matters: Usually legitimate, but worth confirming it can't be steered into reading sensitive files.

Fix: Confirm which files are read and that paths cannot be influenced by untrusted input to reach sensitive locations.

MEDIUMNode.js network egressST-NET-NODE

The component makes outbound network requests.

const fetchResponse = await fetch(url);

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.
