Security Report

5.3

Moderate5.3Moderate Risk

shelly-mcp is a local-first Shelly smart-home controller. Its visible code routes calls to the user's own LAN devices or, optionally, their own Shelly Cloud account, with no telemetry and no hardcoded secrets. The main points to note are on-device script execution and a config file that holds passwords in plaintext, both of which are gated or documented, and the scenes tool file was truncated so part of the code could not be reviewed. Supply chain analysis found 10 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 1 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
