## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-10-22.

- **Endpoint Security**: 83/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, but the challenge carries no valid RFC 9728 metadata, so a client cannot discover where to get a token.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 62/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1541 tokens (~128/item across 12 items; 12 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 74/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 22% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - All 2 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 13 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (12)

### `publish_artifact` (~260 tokens)

Publish artifact

Publish self-contained HTML as version 1; return a share link. Optional Idempotency-Key HTTP header. Limit 10 MiB UTF-8; larger on some paid plans. No network in sandbox; inline assets. Free: 5 active artifacts, 50 versions. For styling, add <meta name="ap-theme" content="firn"> to <head>; call get_authoring_guide for themes and layout classes.

Input parameters:

- `allowed_emails` (array): Required for allowlist; omit otherwise.
- `comments_enabled` (boolean): Defaults to the workspace setting.
- `expires_at`: ISO 8601 UTC, 60 s to 365 days ahead; null = never; omit = workspace default.
- `html` (string, required)
- `summary` (string)
- `title` (string)
- `visibility` (string): public = anyone with link, no sign-in, not listed or searchable (alias: unlisted); private = owner only; allowlist = listed primary emails, account required. Default: public. `team` (some workspaces)…
- `workspace_id` (string)

### `update_artifact` (~163 tokens)

## Common questions

### What is the Artifact Publisher MCP server?

Artifact Publisher is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.artifactpublisher/mcp. Agents publish self-contained HTML to a stable review link, with page-level feedback and revoke. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://app.artifactpublisher.com/mcp).

### Is the Artifact Publisher MCP server safe to use?

Artifact Publisher scores 70 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 Artifact Publisher MCP server expose?

Artifact Publisher exposes 12 tools: publish_artifact, update_artifact, set_artifact_access, get_feedback, reply_to_feedback, and 7 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,366 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Artifact Publisher MCP server require authentication?

Yes. Artifact Publisher asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

### Is the Artifact Publisher MCP server still maintained?

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