Reliability & compatibility
Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

Purpose
Ensure MERN code is secure by default. For security output format and core refusal policy, see /shared-sec-baseline.
MERN-specific security concerns (always check)
- NoSQL injection — reject
$-prefixed and dot-notation keys from user input - Input validation — schema validation (Zod/Joi) at every API boundary
- XSS — React escapes by default; audit
dangerouslySetInnerHTMLand raw HTML rendering - CSRF — required when using cookie-based auth; use tokens or SameSite=Strict
- Auth/authz gaps — verify authorization on every protected route handler, not just frontend
- Token storage — avoid localStorage for sensitive tokens without justification; prefer httpOnly cookies
Standard security (brief check)
- Error responses: safe envelopes, no stack traces or internal details
- Rate limiting: on auth endpoints, expensive operations, public APIs
- Dependencies: lockfile committed, no known critical vulnerabilities
