## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, 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 2026-09-28.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 406, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 87/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 469 tokens (~58/item across 8 items; 3 tools + 5 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 3/100
  - Stability observed for 1 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 96/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 89% 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 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 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.

## Install

### How do I install the Ply UI MCP server?

Ply UI is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

### Claude

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http ply-ui-ng-ply-ui 'https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp'
```

### Cursor

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ply-ui-ng-ply-ui": {
      "url": "https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### VS Code

    }
  }
}
```

### Codex

```toml
[mcp_servers.ply-ui-ng-ply-ui]
url = "https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp"
```

### opencode

      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}
```

### OpenClaw

```bash
openclaw mcp add ply-ui-ng-ply-ui --url 'https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp' --transport streamable-http
```

### Hermes

    }
  }
}
```

### Vellum

```bash
assistant mcp add ply-ui-ng-ply-ui -t streamable-http -u 'https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp'

The mcpServers block is a cross-client convention. Remote transports vary, so check your client's docs.

## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-09-28 (score 69, 0)

- [functional] We updated how we score, so this day's move reflects our rubric, not a change to the server

### 2026-09-27 (score 69)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (3)

### `list_components` (~103 tokens)

List Ply components

List components from the Ply registry. Filter by tier (free|pro|all), category, or name substring. Does not install anything. To copy a component into a project, tell the user to run npx ply-ui-cli add <name>.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): Filter by registry category
- `q` (string): Substring filter on name, description, usage, or keywords (case-insensitive)
- `tier` (string): Filter by license tier

### `get_component` (~101 tokens)

Get component details

Get registry metadata for one component (deps, category, file list). Free source only when includeSource=true. Pro source is never streamed via MCP. Does not install; returns installCommand (npx ply-ui-cli add <name>).

Input parameters:

- `includeSource` (boolean): If true, include free-tier source file contents. Pro source is never returned via MCP in V1.
- `name` (string, required): Registry component name (e.g. button, card)

### `search_components` (~123 tokens)

Search Ply components

Fuzzy / token search over registry component names (e.g. "dialog", "sheet", "carousel"). Does not install anything. Prefer this before guessing names, then give the user npx ply-ui-cli add <name> (or local stdio add_components).

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): Filter by registry category
- `limit` (integer)
- `query` (string, required): Natural-language or substring query (e.g. "dialog modal", "button"). Matches name, description, usage, and keywords.
- `tier` (string): Filter by license tier

## Common questions

### What is the Ply UI MCP server?

Ply UI is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.ply-ui-ng/ply-ui. List, search, and inspect Ply Angular + Tailwind copy-in components. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp).

### Is the Ply UI MCP server safe to use?

Ply UI scores 69 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 Ply UI MCP server expose?

Ply UI exposes 3 tools: list_components, get_component, search_components. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 327 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Ply UI MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Ply UI without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the Ply UI MCP server still maintained?

Ply UI is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 28 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
