MCP tools · 1 exposed · ~32 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.pasteapp/paste MCP server safe to use?

io.pasteapp/paste scores 95 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 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.pasteapp/paste MCP server expose?

io.pasteapp/paste exposes 1 tool: paste_status. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 32 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.pasteapp/paste MCP server still maintained?

io.pasteapp/paste 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 io.pasteapp/paste MCP server under?

io.pasteapp/paste 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 io.pasteapp/paste MCP server?

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