## 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 2026-08-23.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 63/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - Known CVEs could not be checked: the version this server declares is not published in its registry.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - Dependency health could not be checked: the version this server declares is not published in its registry.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 97/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to neprel/git-a2a).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 0 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 87/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 857 tokens (~71/item across 12 items; 8 tools + 4 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**: 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.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (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.

## Common questions

### What is the git-a2a MCP server?

git-a2a is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.neprel/git-a2a. Git module dependencies and owning-agent routing for coding agents. This page covers its npm package (git-a2a).

### Is the git-a2a MCP server safe to use?

git-a2a scores 71 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. 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 git-a2a MCP server expose?

git-a2a exposes 8 tools: doctor, explain, fetch, show, status, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 439 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the git-a2a MCP server still maintained?

git-a2a is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 23 August 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 git-a2a MCP server under?

git-a2a declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
