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 Security89
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability74
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 905 tokens (~113/item across 8 items; 8 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 Management0
  • Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).Unverified
Tool Coverage97
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 92% 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
  • 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "delete_node" 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 8 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

Unverified: 1 category

A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

Install

How do I install the Arbo MCP server?

Arbo is a hosted endpoint at https://getarbo.com/api/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 · 8 exposed · ~905 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 Arbo MCP server?

Arbo is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.getarbo/arbo. SEO site architecture. Page trees with URL, keyword, status, keyword map and redirect plan exports. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://getarbo.com/api/mcp).

Is the Arbo MCP server safe to use?

Arbo scores 75 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 Arbo MCP server expose?

Arbo exposes 8 tools: list_projects, get_project, create_project, create_node, update_node, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 905 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Arbo MCP server require authentication?

Yes. Arbo 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 Arbo MCP server still maintained?

Arbo is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 25 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
