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 Security50

  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • Runs setuptools.build_meta at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability84
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 217 tokens (~108/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass

Stability & Change Management13
  • Stability observed for 4 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

Tool Safety75
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "exec_with_secrets" implies "exec" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail

Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

  • 18 Oct 26 +1

    No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 10 to 13. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 3 days of observed history at the previous scan, 4 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

Diagnostic detail from the automated scan of this channel: what the scanner observed at each step, so you can see exactly where a check passed or failed. It is informational only and never changes the trust score.

MCP tools · 2 exposed · ~217 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 →

Tool Tokens
exec_with_secrets ~174

Run a shell command with the named secrets injected as environment variables (reference them as %NAME% / $env:NAME / $NAME inside the command). The user must approve access via a native dialog that shows the full command; approval covers that exact command string for 15 minutes, so reuse the identical command for retries. Commands over 2000 characters are refused: put long logic in a script. A denial is final — never retry it. Output is returned with any plaintext secret values redacted. This is the ONLY way to use a secret; values never appear in conversation context.

NameTypeReqDescription

No examples provided.

list_secrets ~43

List the names and descriptions of secrets available in the local vault. Values are never returned. Use exec_with_secrets to run a command that needs one of these secrets.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

Common questions

What is the keygrant MCP server?

keygrant is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.bazingaedward/keygrant. Run commands with API keys injected per call, values never enter model context. This page covers its PyPI package (keygrant).

Is the keygrant MCP server safe to use?

keygrant scores 56 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 18 October 2026. 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 keygrant MCP server expose?

keygrant exposes 2 tools: list_secrets, exec_with_secrets. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 217 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the keygrant MCP server still maintained?

keygrant is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 18 October 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 keygrant MCP server under?

keygrant declares the Apache-2.0 licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
