Schema Quality & AI Usability72
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass

Stability & Change Management43
  • Stability observed for 13 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage71
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 14 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 15 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass
Install

How do I install the NarcoScope — illicit-economy evidence atlas MCP server?

NarcoScope — illicit-economy evidence atlas is a hosted endpoint at https://www.narcoscope.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 · 14 exposed · ~867 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 →
