Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security100
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- 0 of 2 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency97
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to aabhisrv/Spiderbrain.ai-Coremind). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 28 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability75
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 241 tokens (~40/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management97
- Stability observed for 29 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage76
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 29% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the Spiderbrain MCP server?
Spiderbrain runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y spiderbrain. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

What is the Spiderbrain MCP server?
Spiderbrain is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as ai.spiderbrain/spiderbrain. Deterministic context layer for your codebase: change impact, blast radius, answers with receipts. This page covers its npm package (spiderbrain).
Is the Spiderbrain MCP server safe to use?
Spiderbrain scores 93 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the Spiderbrain MCP server expose?
Spiderbrain exposes 6 tools: sb_blast, sb_impact, sb_path, sb_keystones, sb_map, sb_ask. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 241 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the Spiderbrain MCP server still maintained?
Spiderbrain is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
What licence is the Spiderbrain MCP server under?
Spiderbrain declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
