## Trust

65/100 (B), scored on the package rubric
- Publisher verified: no
- Build provenance: verified attestation
- npm trusted publishing (OIDC): yes
- Install scripts: suspicious script found
- Prompt-injection scan: not run
- Obfuscation scan: not run

## Security scan

- **Status:** warnings
- **Scanned:** 2026-06-13T12:18:42.596Z
- **Version scanned:** 1.7.24
- **CVEs:** none found by OSV at scan time
**Findings**
- install script `postinstall`: Outbound network request

## Tools

Tool surface: no readable artifact — tool surface unknown.

## Install

**Verdict: review** — Installable, but 2 things to check first: 1 npm lifecycle script flagged — these run on `npm install`, before the server is ever started.
**Cautions** (coverage gaps and advisories — never blocking)
- 1 npm lifecycle script flagged — these run on `npm install`, before the server is ever started. — postinstall: Outbound network request
- The last scan is 114 days old — the evidence behind this verdict is dated.
**Config** (claude-code):
```json
"{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"obsidian-brain\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\n        \"-y\",\n        \"obsidian-brain\"\n      ]\n    }\n  }\n}"
```

## Blast radius

Contained to moderate — no credential declaration found, from the publisher, the upstream registry, or the README. Known so far: runs on your machine; runs code at install time.
- Floor 14, ceiling 32 (tier: unknown)
- `unknown` means the floor and ceiling land in different bands — not measured enough to name one. It does not mean low.
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
