## 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 2026-09-20.

- **Endpoint Security**: 57/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 2 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 87/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 743 tokens (~82/item across 9 items; 8 tools + 1 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 40/100
  - Stability observed for 12 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 67/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 0% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 9 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (8)

### `aw_health` (~37 tokens)

Liveness check for the Agent Watch API. Returns ok, service name, and version. Call this first to verify connectivity before using other tools.

### `aw_check_endpoint` (~165 tokens)

Probe an MCP or HTTP-402 endpoint now and get its trust verdict.

    Performs a real MCP initialize handshake (not a ping), measures p50/p95
    latency, counts tools, hashes the tool schema (for drift detection), and
    checks RFC 9728 auth metadata. Returns: alive (bool), name, tool_count,
    latency_p50_ms, tool_schema_hash, auth_metadata_present, and error detail
    when dead. Use before wiring any new MCP server into your client.

    Args:
        url: the MCP or HTTP-402 endpoint URL to probe (e.g. https://host/mcp/)
        timeout: probe timeout in seconds (default 30)

Input parameters:

- `timeout` (integer)
- `url` (string, required)

### `aw_census` (~102 tokens)

Full-census summary of the official MCP registry: 7,454 endpoints probed with real MCP handshakes.

    Returns alive/dead/unknown counts and percentages. States: alive = MCP
    initialize succeeded; dead = no answer; unknown = answered but auth-gated
    (401/403/402) or redirecting — liveness unprovable without credentials.
    Use to quantify how much of the MCP ecosystem is actually reachable.

### `aw_list_monitored` (~53 tokens)

List all endpoints in the Agent Watch census with their registry names.

    Returns count and the full endpoint list (URLs). Combine with aw_alerts
    to find which of these are dead. Read-only.

### `aw_alerts` (~54 tokens)

Show dead endpoints across the monitored registry (alive=false).

    Returns up to 500 dead endpoints with names. Use after aw_census or
    aw_list_monitored to get the actionable dead list. Read-only.

### `aw_watch` (~153 tokens)

Add endpoints to your personal watchlist (probed immediately, then every 6h).

    Plan-limited by the email used at checkout: free 5, Builder ($19/mo) 50,
    Team ($99/mo) 500 endpoints. Alerts fire on alive→dead transitions and
    tool-schema drift. Already-watched URLs are returned without re-probing.

    Args:
        email: the email your subscription is under (free tier works too)
        urls: endpoint URLs to add to your watchlist
        watch_token: issued at registration, delivered in your onboarding email — required

Input parameters:

- `email` (string, required)
- `urls` (array, required)
- `watch_token` (string)

### `skills_list_tool` (~53 tokens)

List this product's skills. Each entry carries the SKILL.md URI,
            its name and description, verbatim frontmatter, and a per-file
            sha256 manifest. Read a body with `read_skill`.

### `read_skill` (~59 tokens)

Read a product skill file by its skill:// URI.

            Args:
                uri: e.g. skill://<product>/<skill-name>/SKILL.md
                     Get valid URIs from `skills_list_tool`.

Input parameters:

- `uri` (string, required)

## Common questions

### What is the Agent Watch MCP server?

Agent Watch is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.entradox/agent-watch. Monitoring for the agent economy, liveness, latency, trust scoring for MCP endpoints. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://agent-watch-api-production.up.railway.app/mcp/).

### Is the Agent Watch MCP server safe to use?

Agent Watch scores 69 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 Agent Watch MCP server expose?

Agent Watch exposes 8 tools: aw_health, aw_check_endpoint, aw_census, aw_list_monitored, aw_alerts, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 676 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Agent Watch MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the Agent Watch MCP server still maintained?

Agent Watch 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.
