In detail: MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery scores 56.0/100 (Grade C), ranked #808 of 1378 tracked open-source AI agent projects, on evidence coverage B (3 of 5 independent signal types). The public evidence: no package-provenance attestation found; OSSF Scorecard rates its supply-chain practices 3.7/10; 16% of recent commits are signed; no published advisory affects its latest release (@mcpfinder/server); last pushed 2026-10-16. Every point is earned from checkable signals — never paid placement. How scoring works →

How MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery could raise its score

Each line changes one public signal and recomputes with the live scoring function. The gains don't add up exactly, because the score is capped near the top.

Chain of custody

Scanners check what the code says. This traces who ships MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery 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.

  1. Source Partly signed

    github.com/mcpfinder/mcpfinder, AGPL-3.0, last pushed 2026-10-16. 16% of the last 100 commits carry a verified signature; the rest can't be tied to a verified identity.

  2. Review and release Weak

    OpenSSF Scorecard rates the repository's practices 3.7/10 (scanned Oct 11, 2026). The checks that decide who can get a change released:

  3. Published packages Linked, not attested

    Without a build attestation, nothing proves the published files were built from this repository.

  4. What you install today No known advisories

    Latest release checked: @mcpfinder/server 1.5.0. No published advisory affects it (OSV, checked 2026-10-15).

  • GitHub repository data

Verify this score yourself

Every build re-issues MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery’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.

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.

How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption. Grade C 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 →

Does MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery have an OpenSSF Scorecard?
MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery has an OpenSSF Scorecard score of 3.7/10. 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 MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery actively maintained?
Actively maintained. The repository was pushed to within the last 1 day(s).
What license does MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery use?
MCPfinder - MCP Server Discovery ships under AGPL-3.0. A declared, OSI-approved license is one of the transparency signals HVTrust scores.
