Security Report

6.3
Moderate6.3Moderate Risk

This MCP server for WP HealthKit plugin audits is well-structured with proper authentication via API keys, appropriate input validation, and reasonable permissions matching its purpose. The codebase demonstrates good security practices including nonce verification patterns in documentation, proper use of environment variables for credentials, and comprehensive error handling. Minor findings relate to broad exception handling and the optional removal of a misleading warning message. Supply chain analysis found 1 known vulnerability in dependencies (0 critical, 1 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

@wphealthkit/mcp-server v0.4.0

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI assistants direct access to WP HealthKit's plugin audit API. Once configured, tools like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Cursor can trigger security audits, retrieve findings, fetch AI-ready fix prompts, bulk-audit entire plugin directories, and flag false positives — all without leaving the chat interface.

Setup

Required environment variable

WPHK_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Get your API key from wphealthkit.com/dashboard.

Claude Desktop

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json (usually at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wphealthkit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@wphealthkit/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "WPHK_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wphealthkit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@wphealthkit/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "WPHK_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Open Cursor Settings > MCP > Add Server and use:

{
  "wphealthkit": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "@wphealthkit/mcp-server"],
    "env": {
      "WPHK_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
    }
  }
}

Available tools

ToolDescription
audit_pluginTrigger a security audit for a wp.org plugin by slug. Returns an audit ID.
audit_plugin_zipTrigger an audit from a local ZIP file. Returns an audit ID.
audit_plugins_bulkAudit all plugin ZIP files in a local directory. Submits in batches of 10, streams results as each completes, and prints a final summary with risk breakdown and links to top findings.
get_reportPoll the status and full results of an audit by its ID.
get_findingsGet paginated findings, with optional filters for severity and category.
get_fix_promptGet AI-ready fix prompts for an audit's findings, batched by severity.
check_pluginLook up a plugin's security grade, risk level, and findings count from the directory.
list_usageCheck your current usage — audits used this month, tier, and limits.
flag_findingFlag a finding as a false positive. The report goes to the WP HealthKit team for review; confirmed patterns result in a scanner rule update that prevents that pattern in all future audits.

Tool reference

audit_plugin

Triggers a security audit for any plugin hosted on wp.org.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
slugstringYesThe wp.org plugin slug (e.g. "contact-form-7").
enginesstring[]NoAudit engines to run. Defaults to all engines.

Example

audit_plugin({ slug: "contact-form-7" })
// Returns: { auditId: "abc-123", status: "queued" }

audit_plugin_zip

Triggers an audit from a local ZIP file. Useful for plugins not on wp.org or pre-release builds.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
pathstringYesAbsolute path to the ZIP file on disk.
enginesstring[]NoAudit engines to run. Defaults to all engines.

Example

audit_plugin_zip({ path: "/Users/me/plugins/my-plugin.zip" })
// Returns: { auditId: "def-456", status: "queued" }

audit_plugins_bulk

Audits all plugin ZIP files in a local directory. Submissions are batched in groups of 10. Results stream as each audit completes, and a final summary table is printed with a risk breakdown and links to top findings.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
directorystringYesAbsolute path to the directory containing plugin ZIPs.
enginesstring[]NoAudit engines to run (e.g. ["performance"]). Defaults to all engines.
patternstringNoGlob pattern to match files. Defaults to "*.zip".

Example

audit_plugins_bulk({ directory: "/Users/me/plugins", engines: [] })

Output

Results stream to the conversation as each plugin completes. Once all audits finish, the tool prints a summary table:

Plugin                  Risk      Findings   Report
----------------------  --------  ---------  ----------------------------------------
my-plugin.zip           CRITICAL  14         https://wphealthkit.com/report/abc-123
another-plugin.zip      LOW       2          https://wphealthkit.com/report/def-456
legacy-plugin.zip       HIGH      7          https://wphealthkit.com/report/ghi-789

Summary: 3 plugins audited — 1 CRITICAL, 1 HIGH, 0 MEDIUM, 1 LOW

get_report

Polls the status and full results of an audit. Call this after audit_plugin or audit_plugin_zip to wait for completion and retrieve the report.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
auditIdstringYesThe audit ID returned by audit_plugin or audit_plugin_zip.

Example

get_report({ auditId: "abc-123" })
// Returns: { status: "completed", grade: "C", riskLevel: "HIGH", findingsCount: 7, reportUrl: "..." }

get_findings

Returns paginated findings for a completed audit. Supports filtering by severity and category.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
auditIdstringYesThe audit ID.
severitystringNoFilter by severity: "CRITICAL", "HIGH", "MEDIUM", or "LOW".
categorystringNoFilter by category (e.g. "xss", "csrf", "performance").
pagenumberNoPage number for pagination. Defaults to 1.

Example

get_findings({ auditId: "abc-123", severity: "CRITICAL" })

get_fix_prompt

Returns AI-ready fix prompts for an audit's findings, grouped and batched by severity. Pass the output directly to a coding assistant to generate patches.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
auditIdstringYesThe audit ID.
severitystringNoLimit prompts to a specific severity level.

Example

get_fix_prompt({ auditId: "abc-123", severity: "HIGH" })

check_plugin

Looks up a plugin's current security grade, risk level, and findings count from the WP HealthKit directory without triggering a new audit.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
slugstringYesThe wp.org plugin slug.

Example

check_plugin({ slug: "woocommerce" })
// Returns: { grade: "B", riskLevel: "MEDIUM", findingsCount: 3, lastAudited: "2026-04-20" }

list_usage

Returns your current billing period usage — audits consumed, tier, and remaining quota.

Parameters

None.

Example

list_usage()
// Returns: { auditsUsed: 47, auditsLimit: 100, tier: "pro", resetsAt: "2026-05-01" }

flag_finding

Flags a finding as a false positive. The report is reviewed by the WP HealthKit team. If the pattern is confirmed as a false positive, the scanner rule is updated to prevent the same result from appearing in all future audits.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
auditIdstringYesUUID of the audit containing the finding.
findingIdstringYesID of the finding to flag (e.g. "finding-12").
findingTitlestringYesTitle of the finding as shown in the report.
reasonstringNoExplanation of why this is a false positive.

Example

flag_finding({
  auditId: "abc-123-def-456",
  findingId: "finding-5",
  findingTitle: "Named arguments used in internal function call",
  reason: "These are positional args — the scanner is misidentifying the call signature"
})
// Returns: { flagged: true, reviewTicket: "FP-2891" }

Usage flows

Audit a single plugin and get fix prompts

audit_plugin({ slug: "my-plugin" })
  → get_report({ auditId: "..." })          // poll until status === "completed"
  → get_findings({ auditId: "...", severity: "CRITICAL" })
  → get_fix_prompt({ auditId: "..." })

Audit all plugins in a local directory

audit_plugins_bulk({ directory: "/Users/me/plugins" })
  // streams per-plugin results as they complete
  // prints final summary table with risk breakdown

Check a plugin before installing

check_plugin({ slug: "advanced-custom-fields" })
  // returns grade, risk level, and findings count without consuming an audit credit

Flag a false positive after reviewing findings

get_findings({ auditId: "...", severity: "HIGH" })
  → flag_finding({
      auditId: "...",
      findingId: "finding-12",
      findingTitle: "Unescaped output in template",
      reason: "Output is escaped upstream via wp_kses before reaching this call"
    })

Environment variables
