How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security63
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation check failed: no authorisation is required to call this server, and it exposes a tool marked destructive (request_rule). See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 371 tokens (~92/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management17
- Stability observed for 5 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage80
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 30% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
- 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 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

- 16 Oct 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 13 to 17. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 4 days of observed history at the previous scan, 5 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.
- 14 Oct 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 7 to 10. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 2 days of observed history at the previous scan, 3 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

- Authorization: partial → fail ▼ critical
- New tool “request_rule”, which the server declares destructive security
- Tool coverage: 100% → 30% ▼ functional
- Schema quality: 83 → 92 ▼ functional

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 →
explain_symptom Explain Symptom ~75
Map a natural-language symptom (e.g. 'my app is slow', 'hardcoded password', 'infinite react loop') to the relevant Code Auditor rule(s) and their fixes. Call this when a user describes a problem rather than naming a rule.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| symptom | string | yes | A plain-language description of the problem. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| hint | string | – | – |
| matches | array | yes | – |
No examples provided.
get_install_commands Get Install Commands ~90
Return the exact install commands for Code Auditor for a given AI agent. Call this when a user asks how to install Code Auditor, or asks for the command for a specific agent (claude, cursor, codex, gemini, agents, zcode, or all).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| agent | string | yes | The AI agent to install for (e.g. claude, cursor, codex, all). |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| agent | string | yes | – |
| commands | array | yes | – |
| displayName | string | yes | – |

lookup_rule Look Up Rule ~84
Return the rule kind, description, default severity, detection method, and threshold for a given Code Auditor rule or analyzer. Call this when a user asks what a specific rule does (e.g. import-ban, sql-injection, n+1).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| rule_id | string | yes | Rule or analyzer id, e.g. import-ban, sql-injection, n+1. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
request_rule Request Rule ~122
Request a new Code Auditor rule. Call lookup_rule or explain_symptom first to confirm no existing rule covers it. Provide a minimal example that should be flagged and a corrected example that should not. Reduce both to the smallest code that shows the difference, and remove secrets and proprietary identifiers. Returns a receipt id.

How do I install the io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp server?
io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp is a hosted endpoint at https://www.codeauditormcp.com/api/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.

io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp. Enforces architectural invariants and code quality rules inside your AI agent's edit loop. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://www.codeauditormcp.com/api/mcp).
Is the io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp server safe to use?
io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp scores 68 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.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp server expose?
io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp exposes 4 tools: get_install_commands, lookup_rule, explain_symptom, request_rule. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 371 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp server require authentication?
No. We connected to io.github.BenAHammond/code-auditor-mcp without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
