What security grade does pdf-mcp have?

pdf-mcp is graded SAFE by AgentSkillsHub's rule-based security scan (SlowMist 11 red-flag categories). Reviewed, no blocking issues found — reasonable for general use. Still confirm credential handling before production use.

Is pdf-mcp safe to install?

Security audit of jztan/pdf-mcp · MCP Server by jztan · ★ 71

✓ SAFE Basic audit · rule-based scan · SlowMist 11 red-flag categories

Yes — pdf-mcp passed AgentSkillsHub's rule-based security scan with no dangerous patterns detected. As with any third-party skill, confirm what credentials it requests before production use.

What it is: An MCP server that lets Claude Code and other AI agents work through large PDFs without overflowing their context — search by meaning or keyword, read only the pages that matter, and cleanly pull out tables, images, and scanned text, even from multi-column and Japanese layouts.

No dangerous patterns were detected: no credential exfiltration, no obfuscated downloads, no sandbox-escape attempts, no prompt-injection markers.

This is AgentSkillsHub's free basic audit: an automated rule-based scan covering SlowMist's 11 red-flag categories (credential exfiltration, obfuscated payloads, sandbox escape, prompt injection, and more) across 117,000+ open-source AI agent skills and MCP servers, refreshed every 8 hours. A SAFE grade is a scan result, not a guarantee — deep 5-dimension audits (code · credentials · vendor · supply-chain · operational) are available for enterprise. Audited: 2026-07-03.
