How do I install the arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel MCP server?

arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel is a hosted endpoint at https://arifos.arif-fazil.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 8 exposed · ~1,371 tokens

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 →

Common questions

What is the arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel MCP server?

arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.ariffazil/arifos. Constitutional AI kernel with 13 MCP tools, 888_JUDGE verdict pipeline, and VAULT999 ledger. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://arifos.arif-fazil.com/mcp).

Is the arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel MCP server safe to use?

arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel scores 78 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 arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel MCP server expose?

arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel exposes 8 tools: arif_init, arif_observe, arif_think, arif_route, arif_memory, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,371 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel MCP server still maintained?

arifOS — Constitutional AI Kernel is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 21 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
