Dead
Every channel of this server has been unreachable for long enough to be marked dead. Its trust score is pinned to 0 and does not recover automatically: even once the server responds again it stays dead until it is manually reinstated.
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 Security57
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to connect, but we couldn't read the whole tool list to see what that exposes. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- 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
Transport & Reachability0
- Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but the endpoint returned HTTP 502. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail

Tool Safety–
Not scored yet: our latest scan of this component recorded no findings here. It fills in the next time we score it.
Capabilities0

Unverified: 4 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.

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 →
brief_summary ~167
Get the top 5 signals from today's brief as structured JSON — a cheap sample of the full daily_brief. Returns the day's highest-priority items (no prose) so an agent can decide whether to buy the full brief. PAID: $0.50 (vs the full daily_brief price). Defaults to today (UTC). On a 402, settle the returned payment challenge and re-call with the SAME args plus payment_tx=<reference>. An Authorization: Bearer fnet_ key bypasses payment.

How do I install the Patent Intelligence MCP server?
Patent Intelligence MCP is a hosted endpoint at https://patent-intel-mcp-production.up.railway.app/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.

What is the Patent Intelligence MCP server?
Patent Intelligence MCP is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.FoundryNet/patent-intel-mcp. Patent search, USPTO data, patent landscape & pgvector prior-art search for agents. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://patent-intel-mcp-production.up.railway.app/mcp).
Is the Patent Intelligence MCP server safe to use?
Patent Intelligence MCP scores 0 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 Patent Intelligence MCP server expose?
Patent Intelligence MCP exposes 9 tools: search_patents, patent_detail, company_patents, trending_technology, prior_art_search, and 4 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,506 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the Patent Intelligence MCP server require authentication?
No. We connected to Patent Intelligence MCP without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
Is the Patent Intelligence MCP server still maintained?
Patent Intelligence MCP has been unreachable for long enough that we treat it as dead, and its score is pinned to zero. We last reached this channel on 29 July 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
