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 Security0
- No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package.Unverified
- Known CVEs could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.Unverified
- Install-script risk not yet assessed.Unverified
- Dependency health could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.Unverified
Provenance & Transparency45
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 9 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability69
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 5719 tokens (~76/item across 75 items; 75 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management30
- Stability observed for 9 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety75
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- 0 of 4 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "restart_pod" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
- An AI judge read all 75 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
Unverified: 1 category
A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

Checks we could not complete (4)
These are gaps on our side, not findings about this package. We only credit what we can confirm, so a category made up entirely of them scores 0.
- Malware scan in Supply Chain Security (scores 0 for this)No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package.
- Known CVEs in Supply Chain Security (scores 0 for this)Known CVEs could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.

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 →

How do I install the io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server?
io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp runs locally as a container image, launched with docker run --rm -i -e K8SCORTEX_STDIO_ROLES ghcr.io/apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp:1.1.3 node dist/stdio.js. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 3 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.
oci · ghcr.io/apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp
claude mcp add apatilgtn-k8scortex-mcp -- docker run --rm -i -e K8SCORTEX_STDIO_ROLES ghcr.io/apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp:1.1.3 node dist/stdio.js
This image reads K8SCORTEX_STDIO_ROLES. Set it in your client's env block for this server; docker run -e passes it through to the container.
What is the io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server?
io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp. Kubernetes MCP server: 75 tools for GKE, AKS, EKS, RBAC, audit logging, GitOps, multi-cluster. This page covers its container image (ghcr.io/apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp).
Is the io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server safe to use?
io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp scores 42 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. 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 io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server expose?
io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp exposes 75 tools: list_pods, get_pod_logs, describe_pod, describe_deployment, list_nodes, and 70 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 5,719 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server still maintained?
io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 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 io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server under?
io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
What did VerifyMCP test on the io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp server?
VerifyMCP ran 12 checks on io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp, covering Source repository, Provenance, License, Maintenance and 8 more. 4 items could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about io.github.apatilgtn/k8scortex-mcp: Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts and Dependency health. One category scores 0 for that reason, because we only credit what we can confirm. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to a container image, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
