kept-vault

kept-vault is an MCP server for Claude Code from egroup-labs/kept. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A local MCP server that lets a coding agent use a Kept vault, a folder for storing Kept data. It runs with Node.js and reads the vault location from an environment variable.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running the Kept vault integration during coding-agent sessions. The input does not describe which vault operations it supports.
Why use it?
It gives the agent access to the configured Kept vault without requiring the vault path to be written directly into the server command.

MCP server for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: listed in a Claude config.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Security

Grade A, and why

kept-vault scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
