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 Security0
- No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package.Unverified
- Known CVEs could not be checked: we found no dependency list to check in this bundle: either it runs a compiled binary, whose bundled manifests we do not read, or none of the package.json, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml or uv.lock files it ships for its runtime declares a dependency we can read (a requirements.txt that only points at a setup.py project, a local path, or a nested requirements file we cannot follow counts as none).Unverified
- Install-script risk not yet assessed.Unverified
- Dependency health could not be checked: we found no dependency list to check in this bundle: either it runs a compiled binary, whose bundled manifests we do not read, or none of the package.json, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml or uv.lock files it ships for its runtime declares a dependency we can read (a requirements.txt that only points at a setup.py project, a local path, or a nested requirements file we cannot follow counts as none).Unverified
Provenance & Transparency48
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 1 days ago).Pass
- Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability72
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 250 tokens (~62/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management17
- Stability observed for 5 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
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.
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.
- 4 Nov 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 13 to 17. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 4 days of observed history at the previous scan, 5 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

Provenance No attestation
The registry publishes no build provenance for this version, so there is nothing to verify.

Background: How many MCP packages publish verified provenance →
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 →
ask ~117
Ask one of PARANOID's AI models a question in private. The question goes with a fresh zero-knowledge key made on this computer, so the gateway cannot tell who asked or tie it to any other question. Spends the model's price in questions (see the models tool).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| model | string | – | A model id from the models tool. Leave it out for the default model. |
| question | string | yes | The question, as you would type it into a chat. |
| system | string | – | Optional instructions for the model. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
balance ~23
How many questions this membership has left and the last day they can be used.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
buy ~87
Buy a new membership with an x402 payment in USDC on Solana from the wallet in PARANOID_PAYER: 0.002 USDC a question plus a 0.30 USDC setup fee, 250 questions at least. A membership already here that still has questions is kept in a file beside the new one.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| questions | integer | yes | How many questions to buy. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
models ~23
List PARANOID's models and how many questions one message to each costs.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
How do I install the PARANOID MCP server?
PARANOID ships as an MCPB bundle, a single file you download and open in an MCP host that supports MCPB bundles, such as Claude Desktop. The host reads the launch command from the bundle's own manifest, so there is no command to copy. Before opening it, check the file's SHA-256 matches the one the MCP registry declares for it, a0848a435b4008b0efdf21c67c2a30aee356e67459ff6038061b5202e0808636; the commands to do that are on this page. If it does not match, do not open it.

What is the PARANOID MCP server?
PARANOID is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.paranoiddotred/paranoid-mcp. Ask AI models in private, with a zero-knowledge proof made on your computer for every question. This page covers its MCPB bundle (https://github.com/paranoiddotred/paranoid-mcp/releases/download/v1.4.1/paranoid.mcpb).
Is the PARANOID MCP server safe to use?
PARANOID scores 43 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 PARANOID MCP server expose?
PARANOID exposes 4 tools: ask, models, balance, buy. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 250 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
What licence is the PARANOID MCP server under?
PARANOID declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
