## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, 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 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 65/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1495 tokens (~213/item across 7 items; 7 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 40/100
  - Stability observed for 12 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 8 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.

## Common questions

### What is the SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials MCP server?

SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.monriah-studio/sec-edgar-mcp. SEC EDGAR for agents: Form 4 insider trades, cluster buys, filings, XBRL financials and search. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://sec-edgar-api.kidriahx.workers.dev/mcp).

### Is the SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials MCP server safe to use?

SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials scores 71 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 SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials MCP server expose?

SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials exposes 7 tools: get_insider_trades, get_market_insider_buys, get_company_filings, get_company_snapshot, get_company_concept, and 2 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,406 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials MCP server still maintained?

SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials 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 did VerifyMCP test on the SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 12 checks on SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HSTS header, DNSSEC and 8 more. One item could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about SEC EDGAR Insider Trades & Financials: HTTPS. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
