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 Security100
  • 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
  • No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency97
  • Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to Touchstone-CV/touchstone-mcp). View diagnostics → Pass
  • Clear OSI-approved license (Apache-2.0).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 71 days ago).Pass
  • Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability58
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).Partial
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 291 tokens (~72/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management97
  • Stability observed for 29 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage90
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 70% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 5 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 Touchstone MCP server?

Touchstone runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y @touchstone-cv/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 · 4 exposed · ~254 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 Touchstone MCP server?

Touchstone is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as cv.touchstone/touchstone. Bitcoin-anchored, tamper-evident audit log for AI agents, record, disclose and verify actions. This page covers its npm package (@touchstone-cv/mcp).

Is the Touchstone MCP server safe to use?

Touchstone scores 91 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. 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 Touchstone MCP server expose?

Touchstone exposes 4 tools: touchstone_record, touchstone_recorder_info, touchstone_disclose, touchstone_verify. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 254 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the Touchstone MCP server still maintained?

Touchstone 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.

What licence is the Touchstone MCP server under?

Touchstone declares the Apache-2.0 licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
