## 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)

## Common questions

### What is the Quera MCP server?

Quera is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.sepehr071/quera-mcp. Read-only Quera (quera.org): Iranian tech jobs, companies, contests, problems, courses and blog. This page covers its PyPI package (quera-mcp).

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

Quera scores 67 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 Quera MCP server expose?

Quera exposes 14 tools: qr_jobs, qr_job, qr_job_filters, qr_companies, qr_company, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,683 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Quera MCP server still maintained?

Quera 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 Quera MCP server under?

Quera 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 Quera MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 15 checks on Quera, covering Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health, Source repository and 11 more. One item could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about Quera: Malware scan. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to a PyPI package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
