## 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**: 0/100
  - Malware scan not yet available for this package.
  - Known CVEs could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM, so there is no dependency list to read. Publishing one would let us assess it.
  - Install-script risk not yet assessed.
  - Dependency health could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM, so there is no dependency list to read. Publishing one would let us assess it.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 35/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - License check failed: no license is declared.
  - Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).
  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 72/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 1347 tokens (~79/item across 17 items; 17 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**: 78/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 23% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

**Unverified: 2 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: 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.

- `raw` (string): Raw released artifact (full JSON Schema or JSON-LD context), when requested

### `prismaid_review` (~48 tokens)

Run a systematic review from a TOML configuration. Reads and writes files and calls LLM APIs using keys from the environment.

- `error` (null|object): Error details, if any
- `result` (null|object): Screening run summary

### `prismaid_validate_config` (~66 tokens)

Validate a prismAId configuration (review, screening, or zotero) without executing it. Offline and read-only.

Input parameters:

- `config_type` (string, required): Configuration schema: review, screening, or zotero
- `toml` (string, required): prismAId TOML configuration

Output parameters:

- `error` (null|object): Validation error, if any
- `valid` (boolean): Whether the configuration is valid

### `prismaid_validate_record` (~69 tokens)

Validate a RevAIse review record against the released data-model JSON Schema (fetched live). Checks structural validity — field names, types, required slots — distinct from prismaid_check_conformance, which checks a reporting protocol.

Input parameters:

- `record_json` (string, required): RevAIse review-record JSON

Output parameters:

- `error` (null|object): Operational error, if any
- `errors` (null|array): Validation messages, if any

## Common questions

### What is the prismAId MCP server?

prismAId MCP is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.open-and-sustainable/prismaid-mcp. MCP server for prismAId AI-assisted systematic reviews and protocol conformance checking. This page covers its container image (ghcr.io/open-and-sustainable/prismaid-mcp:0.17.1).

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

prismAId MCP scores 34 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 prismAId MCP server expose?

prismAId MCP exposes 17 tools: prismaid_check_conformance, prismaid_convert, prismaid_download_url_list, prismaid_download_zotero, prismaid_generate_revaise_record, and 12 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,347 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the prismAId MCP server still maintained?

prismAId MCP 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.
