Chain of custody

Scanners check what the code says. This traces who ships Illustrator MCP Server and whether that has changed: from the source repository, through how changes are reviewed and released, to the package you install. These are the checks for OWASP ASI04 Agentic Supply Chain Vulnerabilities.

Source Partly signed

github.com/ie3jp/illustrator-mcp-server, MIT, last pushed 2026-09-29. 3% of the last 100 commits carry a verified signature; the rest can't be tied to a verified identity.

Verify this score yourself

Every build re-issues Illustrator MCP Server’s score as an Ed25519-signed credential, valid for 7 days. You can check it offline against HVTracker’s published key; if anyone changes a number after signing, verification fails.

Signed credential (JSON) How to verify

What this score doesn’t check

It covers who ships the code, not what the code does. It doesn’t read tool descriptions or prompts for injected instructions, watch runtime behaviour, or find bugs nobody has disclosed yet. For that, run a content scanner before you connect it, such as Cisco MCP Scanner or Snyk Agent Scan.

In MCP Servers

How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption. Grade B reflects the trust score band: A ≥ 80, B ≥ 65, C ≥ 50, D < 50. Evidence coverage B is separate — it grades how many independent signal types back the score (3 of 5), so a high score on thin evidence stays visible. Full methodology →

Common questions about Illustrator MCP Server

Public supply-chain signals for Illustrator MCP Server are strong: it has multiple independent trust indicators in place. This does not replace your own security review, but Illustrator MCP Server carries less obvious unverified-evidence risk than projects with thin signals.

Does Illustrator MCP Server publish package provenance?

Yes. Illustrator MCP Server's package releases carry build provenance attestations, which cryptographically link the published package back to its source repository and CI workflow.

Does Illustrator MCP Server have an OpenSSF Scorecard?

Illustrator MCP Server has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 5.6/10. The Scorecard checks for branch protection, signed releases, dependency updates, fuzzing, code review, and other supply-chain hygiene items. See the full check breakdown on this page.

Is Illustrator MCP Server actively maintained?

Maintained. Last push was 12 days ago.

What license does Illustrator MCP Server use?

Illustrator MCP Server ships under MIT. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.

Are Illustrator MCP Server's commits signed?

3% of the last 100 commits to Illustrator MCP Server are verified-signed (GPG, SSH, S/MIME, or GitHub's signing flow). Signed commits help confirm that code was authored by who the commit claims.

Not a safety endorsement. HVTracker describes what public signals show, not whether a project is safe for your use case. Run your own security review before adopting in production.
