Security audit

Pipeworx mathjs

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple remote math MCP connector; the main caution is that calculations go through Pipeworx and an npm bridge.

Install only if you are comfortable sending math expressions and unit-conversion inputs to Pipeworx through the mcp-remote npm bridge. Avoid using it for secrets, personal data, or sensitive business calculations, and consider pinning the bridge version if reproducibility matters.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill instructs users to connect to a remote MCP server via `npx mcp-remote@latest https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mathjs/mcp` but does not clearly warn that using the skill sends requests over the network to a third-party service. This can mislead users into treating the tool as local-only and may expose prompts, inputs, or metadata to an external operator, which is a real transparency and privacy risk even though the described functionality is only math evaluation.
