Trust breakdown (7 categories)

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 Security100
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • 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 30 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency32
Schema Quality & AI Usability75
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 1005 tokens (~83/item across 12 items; 12 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management93
  • Stability observed for 28 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage69
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 8% 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 12 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 12 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.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp server?

io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp runs locally as a PyPI package, launched with uvx saferagenticai-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 · 12 exposed · ~1,005 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
find_patterns_for_task ~110

Given a natural-language task description (e.g., 'I'm building a tool-using agent that runs shell commands'), return the most relevant patterns grouped by suite. Use this as a starting point for any cross-cutting design question; then follow up with get_requirement on specific pattern_ids. Defaults to verbosity='compact' (cheap triage); pass 'full' to inline snippets and confidence flags.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitinteger
taskstringyes
verbositystring

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_cross_references ~102

Return outgoing adjacencies for a pattern. `explicit_cross_references` are author-asserted (each pattern's `cross_references` YAML field). `inferred_adjacent` (when include_inferred=true) currently returns *same-suite siblings only* — it does not do semantic similarity. Treat inferred entries as 'neighbours worth scanning,' not as endorsed dependencies.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyes
include_inferredboolean

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_operational_heuristic ~65

Retrieve a single operational heuristic by id (e.g., 'OH::geoffrey-pattern'). Returns the full entry: principle, framework mapping, evidence sources from production deployment, design patterns, anti-patterns, and discovery narrative.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyes

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_requirement ~83

Retrieve one subgoal (framework normative content + Pattern layer guidance) by pattern_id (e.g., 'D3::idx2::sandboxing') or display_id (e.g., 'D3.2'). display_id may resolve to multiple subgoals — underlined variants share display_ids.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyes
include_patternboolean

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_reverse_references ~55

Return patterns that reference the given pattern_id in their cross_references. Complement to get_cross_references (outgoing); this shows incoming. Use to find all consumers of a given pattern.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyes

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_operational_heuristics ~123

List operational heuristics distilled from production agentic AI deployment (Claude Code, Rewind). These are cross-cutting safety principles discovered through building and operating AI agents, mapped to framework suites. Optional filters: suite_id (heuristics relevant to a specific suite), query (keyword search across titles and principles). Separate from the normative pattern layer — different category of knowledge.

NameTypeReqDescription
querystringKeyword search across titles, principles, narratives
suite_idstringFilter by framework suite (e.g., 'D3', 'I2')

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_requirements ~103

List subgoals matching filters (suite_id, suite_type, content_type, min_confidence, missing_pattern_only). Results capped by limit (default 50, max 100).

list_suites ~43

List all 16 suites in the SaferAgenticAI framework (9 drivers + 7 inhibitors) with subgoal counts and titles. Call this first to orient.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_unreviewed ~60

Return patterns that have not been human-reviewed yet (no reviewed_by). Sorted low-confidence first, then needs_human_review flagged, then alpha. Use during Phase 3 review to pick the next pattern to examine.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitinteger

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

resolve_id ~73

Resolve a loose reference (partial id, display_id, slug fragment, or title keyword) to canonical pattern_id(s). Call this when you have a rough reference and need the exact id before calling get_requirement. Always returns candidates — never 'not found'.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitinteger
querystringyes

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

review_stats ~31

Coverage stats: total patterns, reviewed %, per-suite and per-confidence breakdown. Surfaces load-time validation issue count.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_patterns ~157

Field-weighted keyword search across the framework. Terms match at word starts on lowercased text and are IDF-weighted, so rare terms outrank ubiquitous ones; field weights: title 10x, summary 4x, SFR text 3x (all of a subgoal's SFRs scored as one field), description 2x, pattern body 1x. `matched_in` reports the highest-weighted field that matched. No semantic / embedding search — known limitation, see /mcp.html. Use verbosity='compact' to drop snippets and confidence flags (~70% smaller payload) when triaging.

Common questions

What is the io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp server?

io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp. Read-only tools over the Safer Agentic AI framework: 238 patterns + 14 heuristics. This page covers its PyPI package (saferagenticai-mcp).

Is the io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp server safe to use?

io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp scores 78 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.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp server expose?

io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp exposes 12 tools: list_suites, get_requirement, list_requirements, search_patterns, get_cross_references, and 7 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,005 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp server still maintained?

io.github.NellInc/saferagenticai-mcp 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.
