## Trust breakdown

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

Scored 2026-11-05.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 100/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - Runs setuptools.build_meta at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it.
  - No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 6/100
  - Repository check failed: no source repository is declared.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Licence could not be checked: the licence is declared in free text we could not match to a standard (SPDX) licence identifier, so we cannot tell whether it is OSI-approved.
  - Actively maintained (last published 3 days ago).
  - Security-disclosure policy not yet verified: we couldn't inspect the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema quality not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no schema to assess.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no schema to compare.
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no tool definitions to assess.
- **Tool Safety**: 0/100
  - Tool safety not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no tool text to scan.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Protocol version not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we never saw its MCP handshake.

**Unverified: 5 categories.** Categories scored 0 because our sandbox has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Steel Section Weights MCP server?

Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to a PyPI package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
