## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-10-17.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 100/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it.
  - 0 of 28 dependencies flagged as unhealthy.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 48/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).
  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 54/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 260 tokens (~65/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 71/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 0% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (75% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "execute" implies "execute" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

**Unverified: 1 category.** A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

### 2026-10-14 (score 40)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (4)

### `inspect` (~41 tokens)

Read a bounded scene summary; pass names for detailed object properties.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer)
- `names` (array)
- `offset` (integer)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `discover` (~25 tokens)

List operation summaries, or fetch one operation's arguments.

Input parameters:

- `operation` (string)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `execute` (~69 tokens)

Execute up to 100 {'op': name, ...arguments} steps. Returns counts/errors, not full scene data. dry_run checks syntax/permissions only. Runtime failures are partial, not transactional.

Input parameters:

- `dry_run` (boolean)
- `steps` (array, required)
- `timeout` (integer)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `capture` (~73 tokens)

PNG preview, longest edge 64..1024, scene aspect ratio: camera render or viewport (interactive only). Renders with EEVEE (fast); pass engine="CYCLES" for ray-traced quality.

Input parameters:

- `engine` (string)

## Common questions

### What is the Frugal Blender MCP server?

Frugal Blender MCP is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.mohakmalviya/frugal-blender-mcp. Let AI agents build Blender scenes with four compact tools: discover, execute, inspect, capture. This page covers its PyPI package (frugal-blender-mcp).

### Is the Frugal Blender MCP server safe to use?

Frugal Blender MCP scores 64 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 17 October 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 Frugal Blender MCP server expose?

Frugal Blender MCP exposes 4 tools: inspect, discover, execute, capture. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 208 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Frugal Blender MCP server still maintained?

Frugal Blender MCP is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 17 October 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 Frugal Blender MCP server under?

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