MCP server for Audiobookshelf, the self-hosted audiobook and podcast server
The publisher performed an authenticated act of publication — proving control of a namespace in the official MCP registry, or appearing in a first-party catalogue an operator curates. That establishes WHO published it. It is not a security finding, and attested artifacts carry Flagged verdicts too.
3 critical findings reported by agent-audit-kit, 0 of them in the installed artifact. The composite score alone does not reflect this — read the per-scanner reports below.
This artifact ships from 3 sources and their verdicts differ. The worst is github (Flagged). Installing from a cleaner source does not mean the others are safe — check the source you actually install from. Some sources have no verdict at all; that is not a pass.
github: https://github.com/ni-c/audiobookshelf-mcp, 48 findings
Choose your runtime: the CLI writes the mcpServers config entry for that target.
nerlo install --target claude-code -- audiobookshelf-mcp
Install respects the composite badge: Clean proceeds, Caution prompts for confirmation, and Flagged is refused. Write operations require an API token.
6 of 11 scanners examined this package. The rest do not apply to it — language, ecosystem and packaging decide which analyzers can say anything, and a scanner that cannot examine an artifact reports nothing rather than passing it.

Findings in files this artifact installs stand as reported; a model re-read the rest and said which ones it believes are false positives. This is a second opinion published beside the evidence, not a correction to it: the per-scanner reports above are unchanged, every dismissed finding is still listed there at its original severity, and the score and the Flagged badge are computed from those raw severities alone. Nothing below moved them.
Out of 32 findings across every scanner that examined this package. 3 of 3 findings rated critical by their scanner were among the dismissals.
Not reviewed is not the same as clean. Those 2 findings stand exactly as their scanners reported them, at full severity, as they would have without this review.
Two keys had to turn. The model had to name a reason from a fixed list of six, and a deterministic check of ours — over which files this artifact actually installs — had to independently agree. Anything it could not corroborate is in “not reviewed” above, at full severity.
13 Documentation or example — The match is in documentation or sample code, confirmed by our own check to be outside the installed artifact.
Rules: AAK-MCP-STDIO-CMD-INJ-002, AAK-MCP-TOOLGATE-ASYMMETRY-001, AAK-ANTHROPIC-SDK-001 and 5 more · Files: docs/demo.mjs, docs/package.json, /repo/docs/public/.nojekyll and 4 more · reported by agent-audit-kit, cisco-skill-scanner
4 Test or fixture file — The match is in a test or fixture. Our own check confirmed the file is not part of what gets installed.
Rules: AAK-TAINT-001, AAK-SECRET-004 · Files: test/tools.test.ts, test/server.test.ts · reported by agent-audit-kit
The model could have called any of these a false positive and did not.

Critical findings include potential credential exposure and network egress.
The artifact contains a critical finding in `/repo/scripts/gen-tools-doc.mjs` that warrants immediate attention. High severity findings indicate potential credential exposure in `/repo/src/api.ts` with network egress, and in `src/index.ts` related to an Anthropic SDK. Additional high severity findings are present in `/repo/scripts/gen-assets.mjs` and `/repo/scripts/gen-tools-doc.mjs`.
Concern level assessed by the review: Critical. This is the review's scale, not the registry badge.
Reviewed by gemini-2.5-flash. The model sees the findings, not your code, and cannot change a score.
