Please report suspected vulnerabilities privately through GitHub's private vulnerability reporting (Security → Report a vulnerability on this repository). Do not open a public issue for anything you believe is exploitable.

What to expect:

• Acknowledgement within 3 business days.
• An assessment and remediation plan within 14 days for confirmed reports.
• Credit in the release notes when a fix ships, if you want it.

Please include reproduction steps, the affected surface (engine, console, site, or desktop app), and the version or commit you tested.

ContextCake is pre-1.0. Security fixes land on main and ship in the next release; only the latest release is supported.

• The manifest is a trust boundary by design. A layer with "source": "mcp" spawns the command declared in the manifest, with the caller's privileges. Running a manifest you did not author is equivalent to running a program you did not author. Reports that reduce to "a hostile manifest can run commands" describe documented behavior, not a vulnerability — see the trust-boundary documentation on the product site.
• The engine is dependency-free on purpose. The core (packages/core/) uses Node.js built-ins only; there is no npm install step and no lifecycle scripts. Supply-chain reports against the engine should target the release artifacts themselves.
• The web console demo and product site are static deployments; reports about them are still welcome (XSS in rendered content, CSP gaps, dependency CVEs in apps/console/ or apps/site/).
