MCP tools · 3 exposed · ~116 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 →

Is the io.br8n/mcp server safe to use?

io.br8n/mcp scores 90 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 16 October 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. 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 io.br8n/mcp server expose?

io.br8n/mcp exposes 3 tools: brain_list, brain_read, brain_search. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 116 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.br8n/mcp server still maintained?

io.br8n/mcp is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 16 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
