Trust breakdown (7 categories)

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: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.Unverified
  • Install-script risk not yet assessed.Unverified
  • Dependency health could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.Unverified
Provenance & Transparency6
Schema Quality & AI Usability80
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 2575 tokens (~73/item across 35 items; 35 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
  • No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
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
  • All 6 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 35 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.

MCP tools · 35 exposed · ~2,575 tokens

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 →

Install

How do I install the Rackspace Spot MCP server?

Rackspace Spot runs locally as a container image, launched with docker run --rm -i -e SPOT_REFRESH_TOKEN -e SPOT_ORG docker.io/rackspacengpc/spot-mcp:latest. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 3 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

oci · docker.io/rackspacengpc/spot-mcp:latest

# add to Claude Code
claude mcp add rackspace-spot-spot-mcp -- docker run --rm -i -e SPOT_REFRESH_TOKEN -e SPOT_ORG docker.io/rackspacengpc/spot-mcp:latest

This image reads SPOT_REFRESH_TOKEN and SPOT_ORG. Set them in your client's env block for this server; docker run -e passes each one through to the container.

Common questions

What is the Rackspace Spot MCP server?

Rackspace Spot is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.rackspace-spot/spot-mcp. Manage Rackspace Spot Kubernetes Cloudspaces, node pools, and VMs from your AI assistant. This page covers its container image (docker.io/rackspacengpc/spot-mcp:latest).

Is the Rackspace Spot MCP server safe to use?

Rackspace Spot scores 48 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 Rackspace Spot MCP server expose?

Rackspace Spot exposes 35 tools: createCloudspace, createOnDemandNodePool, createSpotNodePool, createVMCloudspace, createVMPool, and 30 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,575 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the Rackspace Spot MCP server still maintained?

Rackspace Spot is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 4 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
