Is srift-transfer safe?
Decentralized, end-to-end encrypted P2P file transfer, chat and calls: human to human, human to AI agent, and AI agent to AI agent. Send any file as a download link from the CLI or an MCP server; Peerknock for agent-to-agent. No account, no database.
This server can change things — files, a browser, a database, or paid online services. Limit what it can reach.
Why: writes or deletes files.

How to use it safely
- ✓ It starts another program (often a browser for sign-in, or a bundled binary). Install it only from the official package.
- ✓ Point it at one project folder, never your home directory or a whole drive.
- ✓ Only give it the folders it needs; files it reads can end up in the AI’s context.
- ✓ Content it fetches from the internet can carry prompt-injection instructions.
- ✓ Pin the version (below) so an update can't change what it does without you noticing.
Code patterns worth reviewing
Automated pattern matches in the published package. Some are expected for this kind of server, and some may be false positives — they are pointers for review, not confirmed vulnerabilities.
Command injection risk
The agent appears to pass input into a shell or command execution path.
dist/daemon.js:372
Plaintext HTTP endpoint
A non-localhost endpoint is referenced over plain HTTP instead of HTTPS.
dist/daemon.js:304
TLS certificate verification disabled
HTTPS certificate checking is turned off, so the agent will accept any certificate — including an attacker's.
dist/daemon.js:297

}Check your whole MCP setup
Agent Verify checks the servers in your Claude, Cursor and VS Code config — including whole-drive access and keys stored in plain text.
