## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 50/100
  - Malware scan not yet available for this package.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it.
  - 2 of 37 dependencies flagged as unhealthy.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 87/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to PedroMarkovicz/tekmeria).
  - License check failed: the license (Apache-2.0 AND CC-BY-4.0) isn't a recognized OSI-approved license.
  - Actively maintained (last published 21 days ago).
  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 75/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 709 tokens (~88/item across 8 items; 7 tools + 1 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 70/100
  - Stability observed for 21 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 86/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 52% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 9 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).
  - Supports UI / widget rendering.

## Common questions

### What is the Tekmeria MCP server?

Tekmeria is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.PedroMarkovicz/tekmeria. Biomedical evidence from PubMed, trials and FDA labels, with citations an audit can check. This page covers its PyPI package (tekmeria).

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

Tekmeria scores 73 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. 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 Tekmeria MCP server expose?

Tekmeria exposes 7 tools: search_literature, search_trials, search_drug_labels, fetch_passages, resolve_handles, and 2 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 611 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Tekmeria MCP server still maintained?

Tekmeria is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 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 Tekmeria MCP server under?

Tekmeria declares the Apache-2.0 AND CC-BY-4.0 licence, which is not on the OSI-approved list. Read the terms before using it at work, and note this covers the source only, not the cost of any service it calls.
