Security Notes
The extension functions as a wrapper, installing the official `@brave/brave-search-mcp-server` NPM package and executing it via Node.js. The Brave Search API key is securely handled by being passed as an environment variable to the Node.js process, preventing exposure. While executing third-party NPM packages always involves some inherent risk, the package is from a reputable source (Brave), and the core logic of the wrapper appears sound. No `eval`, code obfuscation, or other immediately malicious patterns were detected within the provided source code.
