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 Security57
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability80
  • 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 36079 tokens (~57/item across 627 items; 627 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
  • No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety75
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • 0 of 105 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "delete_advertiser" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
  • An AI judge read all 627 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the AdButler MCP server?

AdButler is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.adbutler.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 · 627 exposed · ~36,079 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 AdButler MCP server?

AdButler is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.adbutler/mcp-server. Manage AdButler campaigns, zones, ad items, VAST, and reports from Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.adbutler.com/mcp).

Is the AdButler MCP server safe to use?

AdButler 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 AdButler MCP server expose?

AdButler exposes 627 tools: list_advertisers, get_advertiser, create_advertiser, update_advertiser, delete_advertiser, and 622 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 36,079 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the AdButler MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to AdButler without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the AdButler MCP server still maintained?

AdButler is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 22 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
