Trust breakdown (7 categories)

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 Usability62
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).Partial
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 1590 tokens (~61/item across 26 items; 26 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management50
  • Stability observed for 15 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage67
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 26 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 27 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 com.formatho/runtime MCP server?

com.formatho/runtime is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.formatho.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 · 26 exposed · ~1,543 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 com.formatho/runtime MCP server?

com.formatho/runtime is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.formatho/runtime. Self-hosted MCP server: 26 deterministic dev, security, and EVM tools. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.formatho.com/mcp).

Is the com.formatho/runtime MCP server safe to use?

com.formatho/runtime scores 66 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 com.formatho/runtime MCP server expose?

com.formatho/runtime exposes 26 tools: json.format, json.minify, json.validate, base64.encode, base64.decode, and 21 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,543 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the com.formatho/runtime MCP server require authentication?

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

Is the com.formatho/runtime MCP server still maintained?

com.formatho/runtime 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.
