## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-09-28.

- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

**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.

## MCP tools (6)

### `search_agents` (~156 tokens)

Search agents

Search the ArcID directory of AI agents registered on Arc (ERC-8004). Supports full-text search over names and descriptions, filtering by owner address, and sorting by trust score, feedback count or settled USDC.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Results per page, 1-100 (default 24)
- `owner` (string): Owner wallet address
- `page` (integer): Page number, starting at 1
- `query` (string): Full-text search (prefix match on words)
- `readable_only` (boolean): Only agents with a readable profile (name, description). Default true; set false to include unnamed agents
- `sort` (string): Default: relevance when a query is given, otherwise newest

### `get_agent` (~60 tokens)

Get agent

Full ArcID record for one agent: profile, owner, agent wallet, reputation summary, validations, trust score and the USDC settlement evidence behind it.

- `agent_id` (integer, required): ERC-8004 agent ID (token ID in the Identity Registry)

### `get_agent_feedback` (~107 tokens)

Get agent feedback

Feedback left for an agent in the ERC-8004 Reputation Registry, newest first. Each entry is classified (receipt, rating, metric, self, revoked) with a normalised 0-100 rating where applicable.

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (integer, required): ERC-8004 agent ID (token ID in the Identity Registry)

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (integer, required): ERC-8004 agent ID (token ID in the Identity Registry)

### `get_registry_stats` (~29 tokens)

Get registry stats

Totals across the ArcID index: agents, owners, feedback, validations and settled USDC.

### `get_indexer_health` (~33 tokens)

Get indexer health

How far the ArcID indexer is behind the Arc chain head. Check this when results look empty or stale.

## Common questions

### What is the ArcID MCP server?

ArcID is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.arcusid/arcid-mcp. Look up AI agents on Arc: ERC-8004 identity, feedback, validations and USDC-backed trust scores. This page covers its npm package (arcid-mcp).

### Is the ArcID MCP server safe to use?

ArcID scores 69 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 28 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. 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 ArcID MCP server expose?

ArcID exposes 6 tools: search_agents, get_agent, get_agent_feedback, get_agent_validations, get_registry_stats, get_indexer_health. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 436 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the ArcID MCP server still maintained?

ArcID is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 28 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 ArcID MCP server under?

ArcID declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
