How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security50
  • Malware scan not yet available for this package.Unverified
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised native-build step with no shell scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • 0 of 1 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability84
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 554 tokens (~69/item across 8 items; 8 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management83
  • Stability observed for 25 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage97
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 91% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 8 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

How do I install the io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive MCP server?

io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive runs locally as a PyPI package, launched with uvx ubos-janus-mcp. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 8 exposed · ~554 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
janus_ask ~76

Ask Janus, the UBOS Kinematic Drive concierge, anything about getting or using a private Kinematic Drive (what it is, pricing, privacy, how to connect your agent). Grounded on real product knowledge and live data.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

kinematic_checkout ~87

Buy a private Kinematic Drive with USDC, fully self-serve. Creates an order and returns payment instructions (Solana wallet + memo + amount). Send the USDC with the memo EXACTLY as given, then poll kinematic_checkout_status until it returns your provision token. No card, no account — pure on-chain.

Common questions

What is the io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive MCP server?

io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive. Janus concierge: ask about, price, check, and request a private Kinematic Drive over MCP. This page covers its PyPI package (ubos-janus-mcp).

Is the io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive MCP server safe to use?

io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive scores 65 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. 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.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive MCP server expose?

io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive exposes 8 tools: janus_ask, kinematic_pricing, kinematic_status, kinematic_provision, kinematic_checkout, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 554 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive MCP server still maintained?

io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive 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.

What licence is the io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive MCP server under?

io.github.janus-ubos-republic/janus-kinematic-drive declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
