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 →

Unverified: 5 categories

Categories scored 0 because our sandbox has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you. How we score packages →

MCP tools

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 →

Tools for package channels are captured by running the package in an isolated sandbox. The most recent sandbox run could not capture a tool list from this package.

Install

How do I install the PromptGuard MCP server?

PromptGuard runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y @promptguard/mcp-server. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

Common questions

What is the PromptGuard MCP server?

PromptGuard is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as co.promptguard/security. Scan prompts for injection attacks, redact PII, and audit LLM SDK usage from any MCP client. This page covers its npm package (@promptguard/mcp-server).

Is the PromptGuard MCP server safe to use?

PromptGuard scores 23 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. 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.

Is the PromptGuard MCP server still maintained?

PromptGuard is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 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 PromptGuard MCP server under?

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

What did VerifyMCP test on the PromptGuard MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 6 checks on PromptGuard, covering Malware scan, Install scripts, Source repository, Provenance and 2 more. 8 items could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about PromptGuard: Known CVEs, Dependency health, Security disclosure, Schema quality and 4 more. 5 categories score 0 for that reason, because we only credit what we can confirm. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
