  - Tool safety not yet verified: our sandbox could not run this package, so we have no tool text to scan.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Protocol version not yet verified: our sandbox could not run this package, so we never saw its MCP handshake.

**Unverified: 5 categories.** Categories scored 0 because our sandbox could not run this package, so we have no schema for these checks 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 we can run it.

## Common questions

### What is the Decoy MCP server?

Decoy is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as me.decoys/decoy. What your agents should know about you, shared by every agent. End-to-end encrypted. This page covers its npm package (decoy-mcp-server).

### Is the Decoy MCP server safe to use?

Decoy scores 33 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We recorded 1 known advisory against it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. 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.

### Is the Decoy MCP server still maintained?

Decoy 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 Decoy MCP server under?

Decoy declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
