## 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 2026-10-17.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - 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**: 70/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 1642 tokens (~96/item across 17 items; 17 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 7/100
  - Stability observed for 2 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 98/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 93% 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 17 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 18 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (17)

### `chord_chains` (~62 tokens)

Chains and capabilities

The chains Chord serves, with their native asset, anchors and which capabilities each one has (overview, tokens, trades, candles, wallet PnL, smart money, holders, LP, quote, swap). Call this first when unsure what a chain supports.

### `chord_status` (~33 tokens)

Chain status

Live health of every chain: routing engine state, how old the newest indexed trade is, and the public status page link.

### `chord_overview` (~51 tokens)

Chain overview (24h)

A chain's last 24 hours on the venues Chord indexes: volume, swaps, venue share, hourly buckets.

Input parameters:

- `chain` (string, required): Chain key. chord_chains lists what each chain supports.

### `chord_tokens` (~91 tokens)

Token board

The chain's 24h token board: price, volume, trades, change. Sort names differ by chain; a wrong one is answered with the allowed list.

Input parameters:

- `chain` (string, required): Chain key. chord_chains lists what each chain supports.
- `limit` (integer): Rows to return (default 50).
- `sort` (string): Board order, e.g. volume, trades, change.

### `chord_search` (~67 tokens)

Search tokens

- `chain` (string, required): Chain key. chord_chains lists what each chain supports.
- `query` (string, required): Symbol, name or address.

### `chord_token` (~82 tokens)

Token details

Input parameters:

- `address` (string, required): Token address: 0x… on EVM chains, the base58 mint on Solana (case-sensitive).
- `chain` (string, required): Chain key. chord_chains lists what each chain supports.

Token trades

The newest swaps of a token, with side, size in USD, price, venue and the wallet where it is known.

Input parameters:

- `address` (string, required): Token address: 0x… on EVM chains, the base58 mint on Solana (case-sensitive).

- `limit` (integer): Rows to return (default 200).
- `tf` (string): Candle size (default 1h).

Input parameters:

- `chain` (string, required): Chain key. chord_chains lists what each chain supports.
- `wallet` (string, required): Wallet address: 0x… on EVM chains, base58 on Solana.

### `chord_wallet_trades` (~73 tokens)

## Common questions

### What is the Chord MCP server?

Chord is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.getchordlabs/chord. Swap quotes + unsigned txs on 8 EVM chains, plus Solana data: boards, candles, wallet PnL. No key. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.getchord.xyz/v1/mcp).

### Is the Chord MCP server safe to use?

Chord 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 Chord MCP server expose?

Chord exposes 17 tools: chord_chains, chord_status, chord_overview, chord_tokens, chord_search, and 12 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,525 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Chord MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the Chord MCP server still maintained?

Chord is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 17 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
