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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog) Scored 2026-10-18. - **Supply Chain Security**: 12/100 - No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package. - Known CVEs were checked across the 43 of 43 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. - Install-script risk not yet assessed. - 4 of 43 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. - **Provenance & Transparency**: 39/100 - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT). - Maintenance history not yet determined. - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. - **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100 - Schema quality not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no schema to assess. - **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100 - Stability not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no schema to compare. - **Tool Coverage**: 0/100 - Tool coverage not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no tool definitions to assess. - **Tool Safety**: 0/100 - Tool safety not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we have no tool text to scan. - **Capabilities**: 0/100 - Protocol version not yet verified: this package installed, but its server did not start, so we never saw its MCP handshake. **Unverified: 5 categories.** Categories scored 0 because our sandbox has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you. ## Install ### How do I install the io.github.jkawamoto/mcp-youtube-transcript server? io.github.jkawamoto/mcp-youtube-transcript ships as an MCPB bundle, a single file you download and open in an MCP host that supports MCPB bundles, such as Claude Desktop. The host reads the launch command from the bundle's own manifest, so there is no command to copy. The MCP registry declares no SHA-256 for this bundle, so there is no published digest to check the download against. - Download bundle: `https://github.com/jkawamoto/mcp-youtube-transcript/releases/download/v0.8.0/mcp-youtube-transcript.mcpb` ## Changelog Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims. ### 2026-10-18 (score 11, −2) - [functional regression] Maintenance: pass → unverified ### 2026-09-28 (score 13, 0) - [functional] We updated how we score, so this day's move reflects our rubric, not a change to the server ### 2026-09-25 (score 13, −4) - [functional] We updated how we score, so this day's move reflects our rubric, not a change to the server ### 2026-09-24 (score 17) First indexed and scored. ## MCP tools (0) Tools for package channels are captured by running the package in an isolated sandbox.
