## 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**: 100/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 97/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to pipeworx-io/mcp-mic).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 65/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 448 tokens (~224/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - 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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 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.

## MCP tools (2)

### `decode_mic` (~178 tokens)

Decode an ISO 10383 Market Identifier Code (MIC) — the 4-character venue code openfigi returns as `exchCode` on an exchange listing, and the code most market-data feeds use the same way — to the trading venue's own name, legal operator, country, city, website and registry status. Reports whether the code is an OPERATING MIC (the operator as a whole, e.g. "XNYS") or a SEGMENT MIC (one specific market under an operator, e.g. "ARCX" under "XNYS"); an operating MIC also carries segment_count — call search_mics with operating_mic to list them.

Input parameters:

- `code` (string, required): 4-character ISO 10383 MIC, e.g. "XNYS" (NYSE) or "XLON" (London Stock Exchange).

### `search_mics` (~219 tokens)

Filter the ISO 10383 Market Identifier Code registry by country, operating MIC, status and/or a name fragment. Returns aggregate counts first (total matched, by_status, by_country) and a page of rows after. Use operating_mic to list every segment market under one venue operator (e.g. every segment under "XNYS").

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code of the venue, e.g. "US", "GB", "JP".
- `limit` (number): Rows per page, 1-500 (default 50).
- `name_contains` (string): Case-insensitive fragment of the market name, legal entity name or acronym, e.g. "nasdaq".
- `offset` (number): Rows to skip for paging (default 0).
- `operating_mic` (string): List every market (segment or operating) under this operating MIC, e.g. "XNYS" to list NYSE's own segments.
- `status` (string): Registry status.

## Common questions

### What is the Mic MCP server?

Mic is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/mic. MIC, ISO 10383 Market Identifier Code decoder (fleet #3261). This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-mic).

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

Mic scores 79 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. 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 Mic MCP server expose?

Mic exposes 2 tools: decode_mic, search_mics. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 397 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Mic MCP server still maintained?

Mic 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 Mic MCP server under?

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