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 Security32
  • Malware scan not yet available for this package.Unverified
  • CVE check failed: a known high-severity CVE affects cryptography 46.0.7, a direct dependency. A fixed version is available. View diagnostics → Fail
  • Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised native-build step with no shell scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • 10 of 97 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability0
  • Schema quality not yet verified: this package could not be installed in a clean environment, so we have no schema to assess.Unverified
Stability & Change Management0
  • Stability not yet verified: this package could not be installed in a clean environment, so we have no schema to compare.Unverified
Tool Coverage0
  • Tool coverage not yet verified: this package could not be installed in a clean environment, so we have no tool definitions to assess.Unverified
Tool Safety0
  • Tool safety not yet verified: this package could not be installed in a clean environment, so we have no tool text to scan.Unverified
Capabilities0
  • Protocol version not yet verified: this package could not be installed in a clean environment, so we never saw its MCP handshake.Unverified

Unverified: 5 categories

Categories scored 0 because our sandbox run of this package has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you. How we score packages →

MCP tools

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 →

Tools for package channels are captured by running the package in an isolated sandbox. The most recent sandbox run could not capture a tool list from this package.

Common questions

What is the Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent server?

Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.oraios/serena. A powerful toolkit for coding, providing semantic retrieval and editing capabilities. This page covers its PyPI package (serena-agent).

Is the Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent server safe to use?

Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent scores 19 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We recorded 31 known advisories against it as of 24 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.

Is the Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent server still maintained?

Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 24 September 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 Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent server under?

Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
