Trust breakdown (7 categories)

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security98
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • 31 of 99 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability79
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 4519 tokens (~68/item across 66 items; 66 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management80
  • Stability observed for 24 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage72
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 17% 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; "kage_context_slot_delete" 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 66 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.kage-core/kage MCP server?

com.kage-core/kage runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y @kage-core/kage-graph-mcp. 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 · 66 exposed · ~4,519 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 →

kage_workflow ~204

Kage memory workflow (this tool performs no action; it returns this loop). 1) Start every task with kage_context (project_dir + the task as query): it validates memory, recalls relevant packets, and queries the code and knowledge graphs in one call. 2) Do the work, preferring repo memory over public context. 3) Capture reusable learnings with kage_learn — bug causes and verified fixes, conventions, decisions, gotchas, run/test/build commands. Wrap anything that must never leave the repo in <private>...</private> tags; private spans are stripped before sharing. 4) After meaningful file changes, call kage_refresh so indexes, graphs, and stale-memory checks stay current. 5) Before finishing a branch, call kage_pr_summarize then kage_pr_check. Recall receipts show estimated tokens saved versus rediscovery; report memory quality with kage_feedback (helpful/wrong/stale).

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

Common questions

What is the com.kage-core/kage MCP server?

com.kage-core/kage is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.kage-core/kage. Verified memory for coding agents: claims cited against code, stale withheld, savings receipts. This page covers its npm package (@kage-core/kage-graph-mcp).

Is the com.kage-core/kage MCP server safe to use?

com.kage-core/kage scores 78 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 24 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. 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.kage-core/kage MCP server expose?

com.kage-core/kage exposes 66 tools: kage_context, kage_search, kage_fetch, kage_list_domains, kage_recall, and 61 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 4,519 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the com.kage-core/kage MCP server still maintained?

com.kage-core/kage is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 24 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the com.kage-core/kage MCP server under?

com.kage-core/kage declares the GPL-3.0-only licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
