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 →

Is the io.github.eliottreich/taskbounty-mcp-server server safe to use?
io.github.eliottreich/taskbounty-mcp-server scores 80 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. 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.

io.github.eliottreich/taskbounty-mcp-server 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 io.github.eliottreich/taskbounty-mcp-server server under?
io.github.eliottreich/taskbounty-mcp-server declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
