## Description

Deterministic MCP server auditor with weighted findings and machine-readable JSON and SARIF reports.

## AI-native score

**Tier D — 27/100 · research coverage 42/100.** This grade measures agent-readiness and is not a substitute for your own security or vendor-risk review. See [methodology](/methodology/) for how the grade and coverage are computed. Unresearched decision fields score zero in the grade.

## Confirmed absences

These decision fields were researched and confirmed absent — not available based on current evidence, until contrary information supersedes the finding. Each carries the check performed, the page checked, and the date, so you can act on the negative without repeating the research. A label-scoped absence applies only to its label (e.g. no SOC 2 does not mean no certifications).

- **Agent skills** — confirmed absent (whole field), checked 2026-10-19. Checked the complete developer and integration overview for an installable agent skill published for operating MCPscore.
