How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security100
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • 1 of 33 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency100
  • Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass

Schema Quality & AI Usability80
  • 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 4042 tokens (~161/item across 25 items; 22 tools + 3 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

  • 78% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 22 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 24 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

MCP tools · 22 exposed · ~3,565 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 →

Install

How do I install the OctoWatch DLP MCP server?

OctoWatch DLP runs locally as a PyPI package, launched with uvx octowatch-mcp. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

Common questions

What is the OctoWatch DLP MCP server?

OctoWatch DLP is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.extralabs/octowatch-mcp. Read-only OctoWatch DLP Cloud MCP: risks, idle time, productivity, monitoring. This page covers its PyPI package (octowatch-mcp).

Is the OctoWatch DLP MCP server safe to use?

OctoWatch DLP scores 96 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. Its build provenance is signed and verified. 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 OctoWatch DLP MCP server expose?

OctoWatch DLP exposes 22 tools: octowatch_whoami, list_users_groups, list_risks, list_anomalies, get_idle_summary, and 17 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 3,565 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the OctoWatch DLP MCP server still maintained?

OctoWatch DLP is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 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 OctoWatch DLP MCP server under?

OctoWatch DLP declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

What did VerifyMCP test on the OctoWatch DLP MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on OctoWatch DLP, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to a PyPI package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
