## Trust breakdown

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. 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.

- **Endpoint Security**: 11/100
  - TLS not yet verified: we couldn't open a connection to check the certificate.
  - Authorisation not yet verified: we couldn't confirm whether this endpoint requires it.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS not yet verified: we couldn't read the response headers to check for it.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 0/100
  - Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but we couldn't connect to verify it.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's schema, or could read only part of its tool list.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools, or could read only part of the list.
- **Tool Safety**: 0/100
  - Tool safety not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools, or could read only part of the list.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Capabilities not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's capabilities.

**Unverified: 5 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

## Common questions

### What is the TAP Certified MCP server?

TAP Certified is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as dev.theatlasproject/tap-certified. Check if an AI agent is certified; list the TAP Registry and certifications. Free, read-only. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://theatlasproject.dev/mcp).

### Is the TAP Certified MCP server safe to use?

TAP Certified scores 80 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 TAP Certified MCP server expose?

TAP Certified exposes 4 tools: check_agent_certification, list_certified_agents, list_certifications, how_to_get_certified. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 358 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the TAP Certified MCP server require authentication?

Its publisher declares no required credentials for TAP Certified. We have not been able to confirm that against the live endpoint, and a server can require authorisation without declaring it here.

### Is the TAP Certified MCP server still maintained?

TAP Certified is still listed in the MCP registry, though our most recent checks did not reach this channel. We last reached this channel on 3 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the TAP Certified MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 3 checks on TAP Certified, covering HTTPS, DNSSEC and Transport. 8 items could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about TAP Certified: TLS certificate, Authorization, HSTS header, Schema quality and 4 more. 5 categories score 0 for that reason, because we only credit what we can confirm. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
