## What the status means

Security status: **clear** · Forge verdict: not enough reports yet

Clear: no published advisory (OSV) matched 0.0.84 and no field report flagged it, as of 5 Nov 2026. Clear means no known pattern or advisory matched, not that a tool is safe.

Advisories are matched to one exact version. An advisory can only be matched once it is published, and field reports need 5 people, at least 2 verified, before a version gets a Forge Score ([methodology](https://theagentforge.io/methodology)).

## Published advisories (OSV)

| Advisory | Kind | Matches 0.0.84 | Fixed in | Published |

`npx @theagentforge/cli check npm:@playwright/mcp@0.0.84`

From an AI agent, with no account: `forge_check` on `https://theagentforge.io/mcp/public` with `{"id":"npm:@playwright/mcp","version":"0.0.84"}`, or the [check API](https://theagentforge.io/api/v1/check?id=npm%3A%40playwright%2Fmcp&version=0.0.84).
