Available components
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 Security46
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 115 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- 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 Usability58
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 15546 tokens (~135/item across 115 items; 115 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management73
- Stability observed for 22 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage83
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 50% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety75
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 115 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- Manipulation not yet verified: only 109 of 116 captured unit(s) of tool text has been judged so far, so we will not certify text no model has read as clean.Unverified
Capabilities60
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
How do I install the Clink Forge MCP server?
Clink Forge is a hosted endpoint at https://api.clinkforge.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.

What is the Clink Forge MCP server?
Clink Forge is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.clinkforge/clink-forge. Pay-per-call government data over x402: provenance chains, Ed25519 attestations, no API keys. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.clinkforge.com/mcp).
Is the Clink Forge MCP server safe to use?
Clink Forge scores 63 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 Clink Forge MCP server expose?
Clink Forge exposes 115 tools: auto_nchs_birth_rates_for_unmarried_women_by_age_race_and_h…, spdx_license_lookup, auto_child_fatalities_trend_lookup, auto_dev_dqs_cholesterol_in_adults_age_20_and_older_by_sele…, auto_hhs_covid_19_small_area_estimations_survey_primary_vac…, and 110 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 15,444 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the Clink Forge MCP server require authentication?
No. We connected to Clink Forge without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
Is the Clink Forge MCP server still maintained?
Clink Forge is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
