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. Claim this server and supply a read-only token to verify it and lift the score.

Install

How do I install the io.usefulapi/scalingo MCP server?

io.usefulapi/scalingo is a hosted endpoint at https://scalingo.usefulapi.io/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.

    No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 90 to 93. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 27 days of observed history at the previous scan, 28 at this one.

MCP tools · 21 exposed · ~1,925 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 →

Tool Tokens
get_account ~40

Fetch the authenticated user's account (id, email, username, fullname, company). Scalingo API: GET /v1/users/self. Returns { user }.

Common questions

What is the io.usefulapi/scalingo MCP server?

io.usefulapi/scalingo is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.usefulapi/scalingo. Manage Scalingo PaaS apps, deployments, containers, logs and env vars from your AI assistant. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://scalingo.usefulapi.io/mcp).

Is the io.usefulapi/scalingo MCP server safe to use?

io.usefulapi/scalingo scores 18 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 io.usefulapi/scalingo MCP server expose?

io.usefulapi/scalingo exposes 21 tools: list_apps, get_app, list_containers, get_app_stats, list_deployments, and 16 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,925 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the io.usefulapi/scalingo MCP server require authentication?

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

Is the io.usefulapi/scalingo MCP server still maintained?

io.usefulapi/scalingo is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
