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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security81
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- The endpoint enforces authorisation, advertised via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. View diagnostics → Pass
- HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- The authorisation server supports Client ID Metadata Documents, the current MCP client-registration mechanism. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability0
- Transport blocked by authentication: the endpoint requires auth we don't have to verify streamable-http. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
Schema Quality & AI Usability0
- Schema blocked by authentication: the endpoint requires auth we don't have to read it. See how to fix → Unverified
Stability & Change Management0
- Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).Unverified
Tool Coverage0
- Tool coverage blocked by authentication: the endpoint requires auth we don't have to read its tools.Unverified
Tool Safety0
- Tool safety blocked by authentication: the endpoint requires auth we don't have to read its tools.Unverified
Capabilities0
- Capabilities blocked by authentication: the endpoint requires auth we don't have to read them. See how to fix → Unverified
Unverified: 6 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. Claim this server and supply a read-only token to verify it and lift the score.
How do I install the Arc UI MCP server?
Arc UI is a hosted endpoint at https://uiarc.dev/api/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.

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 →
get_component Get an Arc component ~130
Get full documentation for one Arc component or block: when to use it, when not to (with the better alternative), usage and extra examples, props, keyboard, accessibility, motion, responsive behavior, performance, keywords, related items, and the install command. structuredContent.api carries the same fields as JSON. With an Arc Pro token (Authorization header), Pro items also include their full source files in structuredContent.files.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | Component or block id, e.g. button, date-picker, or signup-form |
| kind | string | – | Only needed when an id exists as both |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_install_command Get the Arc install command ~77
Get the shadcn CLI command that installs one or more Arc components or blocks, including shared foundation tokens and Arc dependencies, plus setup notes. Free items always; Pro items (@uiarc-pro registry) when the connection carries an Arc Pro token.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ids | array | yes | Component or block ids |
| runner | string | – | – |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_skill Get an Arc skill ~371
Get one Arc skill file as markdown: rules for building with Arc. Free skills: SKILL (entry point: workflow, principles, never-do list, and quick decisions); INSTRUCTIONS (short always-on rules for agents.md, claude.md, or cursor rules); checklist (the review loop to run before finishing, with grep sweeps); components (choosing the right component or block by job, with ids); composition (page containers, dashboards, marketing sections, states, react correctness); copy (sentence case, no eyebrows or em dashes, verbs on buttons, honest claims); design (color, type, surfaces, concentric radii, spacing, and icons); motion (motion tokens, spring choice, patterns with code, reduced motion); accessibility (focus without rings, semantics, keyboard, and announcements); responsive (widths to check, overflow, tables, and touch targets); example-settings (a worked account settings page); example-pricing (a worked pricing section with plans, comparison, and faq); example-dashboard (a worked analytics overview with kpis, chart, and table). Pro skills (arc-pro, full-page-generation, page-composition, design-system-generation, refactor-to-arc, motion-recommendations, responsive-optimization, accessibility-audit) are returned in full when the connection carries an Arc Pro token (otherwise signed-in Pro members download them at /api/skills and this tool returns where).

What is the Arc UI MCP server?
Arc UI is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as dev.uiarc/arc. React components and blocks with motion. Search docs, props and shadcn install commands. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://uiarc.dev/api/mcp).
Is the Arc UI MCP server safe to use?
Arc UI scores 32 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 Arc UI MCP server expose?
Arc UI exposes 5 tools: list_components, search_components, get_component, get_install_command, get_skill. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 773 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the Arc UI MCP server require authentication?
Yes. Arc UI asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.
Is the Arc UI MCP server still maintained?
Arc UI is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 6 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
