AI Analysis
Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS
The package exhibits a high credential risk and moderate shell execution risk, with low maintainer activity and poor metadata quality. These factors suggest potential risks that require further investigation.
- High credential risk
- Moderate shell execution risk
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: No network calls detected, which is normal and not indicative of malicious activity.
- Shell: Shell execution is present but without additional context about the purpose, it's hard to assess risk; however, it may indicate the package executes external scripts or tools.
- Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected.
- Credentials: Detected pattern suggests potential credential harvesting or unauthorized file operations.
- Metadata: The package shows low maintainer activity and poor metadata quality, raising some suspicion but not definitive signs of malice.

AI App Starter Prompt
Use this prompt to build a project with aes-mcp
Create a secure communication tool called 'MCPChat' that leverages the 'aes-mcp' package to provide end-to-end encryption for messages exchanged between users. This application will serve as a simple yet robust chat client where users can send and receive encrypted messages using AES encryption methods supported by the 'aes-mcp' package. The application should have the following core functionalities: 1. User Authentication: Implement a basic user registration and login system. Users should be able to register with a username and password, and then log in to access the chat functionality. 2. Secure Messaging: Once logged in, users should be able to create new chat rooms and invite other registered users to join them. Messages sent within these chat rooms should be automatically encrypted using the 'aes-mcp' package before being transmitted over the network. 3. Real-time Communication: Utilize a real-time communication library such as WebSockets or Socket.io to ensure that messages are delivered instantly to all participants in a chat room. 4. Encryption Key Management: The 'aes-mcp' package should handle key generation, storage, and management for each user and chat room. Ensure that keys are securely stored and managed to prevent unauthorized access. 5. User Interface: Develop a simple but intuitive web interface using HTML/CSS/JavaScript for users to interact with the application. This includes forms for user registration/login, chat rooms, and message sending/receiving. 6. Documentation: Provide comprehensive documentation on how to set up and run the application, including instructions for installing dependencies and configuring the 'aes-mcp' package. In this project, the 'aes-mcp' package will play a critical role in ensuring that all communications are secure. It will be responsible for generating encryption keys, encrypting messages before they are sent, and decrypting messages upon receipt. Additionally, the package will help manage the lifecycle of encryption keys, ensuring they are stored securely and refreshed periodically to enhance security.
