Caveat verdict

researchvault

🟢 Trusted

No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan — automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

Local-first research orchestration engine using SQLite with optional search API keys (Brave, Serper, SearXNG); all listed environment variables are optional and scoped to search API access consistent with the declared research purpose.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. Caveat flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
