Endpoint Security80
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability74
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 164 tokens (~82/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management13
  • Stability observed for 4 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the numberRank MCP server?

numberRank is a hosted endpoint at https://numberrank.dev/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.

Changelog

Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

  • 19 Sept 26 +1

    No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 7 to 10. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 2 days of observed history at the previous scan, 3 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

MCP tools · 2 exposed · ~134 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 →

Tool Tokens
check_number ~92

Tells you whether a phone number is VoIP or a real carrier line, with a 0 to 100 score and letter grade, using Twilio Lookup line type intelligence. Use it before relying on a number for SMS or OTP verification. US numbers can be 10 digits; any other country needs + and the country code.

Returns the numberRank directory: AI agent phone providers and personal agents graded by whether their published and provisioned numbers read as real carrier lines or VoIP. Numbers are masked.

Common questions

What is the numberRank MCP server?

numberRank is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as dev.numberrank/numberrank. Is a phone number VoIP or a real carrier line? Line type, score and grade, free, no auth. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://numberrank.dev/mcp).

Is the numberRank MCP server safe to use?

numberRank 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 numberRank MCP server expose?

numberRank exposes 2 tools: check_number, directory. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 134 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the numberRank MCP server require authentication?

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

Is the numberRank MCP server still maintained?

numberRank 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.
