## 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-statbel-be).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 6 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 75/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 546 tokens (~136/item across 4 items; 4 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 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 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 (4)

### `list_views` (~145 tokens)

Browse/search Statbel (Statistics Belgium, be.STAT) saved statistical views. Each view is a pre-built table over a dataset and carries a single locale (nl/fr/de/en). Returns id, name, locale, dataSourceId and publish dates. Filter by case-insensitive substring of the view name (matches in any language).

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number): Max results to return (default 50, max 500).
- `locale` (string): Optional filter to one language: "nl", "fr", "de" or "en".
- `query` (string): Case-insensitive substring to match in the view name (any language). Omit to list all.

### `get_view` (~106 tokens)

Metadata for one Statbel view by its id (a UUID, e.g. from list_views). Returns the view object: name, locale, dataSourceId (the underlying dataset), and publish/change dates. To get the dataset description in all available languages, pass the returned dataSourceId to get_dataset.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): View UUID, e.g. "1be9b77f-4005-4d58-a885-8281b5bbe617".

### `list_datasets` (~135 tokens)

Browse/search Statbel datasets (be.STAT "datasources"). Each dataset has a `name` code (e.g. "IM_EAF_HOUSE_SALES_IDX"), a `descriptions` map with one entry per supported language (nl/fr/de/en), a category id, supportedLocales, and last-update timestamps. Filter by case-insensitive substring matched against the dataset code and all-language descriptions.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number): Max results to return (default 50, max 500).
- `query` (string): Case-insensitive substring matched against the dataset code and any-language description. Omit to list all.

### `get_dataset` (~106 tokens)

Multilingual metadata for one Statbel dataset by its id (a UUID, e.g. the dataSourceId from a view). Returns the dataset code `name`, the `descriptions` map (nl/fr/de/en text), supportedLocales, defaultLocale, category id and update dates.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Dataset (datasource) UUID, e.g. "89cf1b74-dc88-4a76-a215-a25dffed7f37".

## Common questions

### What is the Statbel Be MCP server?

Statbel Be is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/statbel-be. Statbel, Statistics Belgium (be.STAT / bestat) open data MCP. This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-statbel-be).

### Is the Statbel Be MCP server safe to use?

Statbel Be scores 81 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 Statbel Be MCP server expose?

Statbel Be exposes 4 tools: list_views, get_view, list_datasets, get_dataset. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 492 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Statbel Be MCP server still maintained?

Statbel Be 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 Statbel Be MCP server under?

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

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Statbel Be MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 15 checks on Statbel Be, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 11 more. One item could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about Statbel Be: Stability. One category scores 0 for that reason, because we only credit what we can confirm. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
