## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 11/100
  - TLS not yet verified: we couldn't open a connection to check the certificate.
  - Authorisation not yet verified: we couldn't confirm whether this endpoint requires it.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS not yet verified: we couldn't read the response headers to check for it.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 0/100
  - Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but we couldn't connect to verify it.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's schema, or could read only part of its tool list.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools, or could read only part of the list.
- **Tool Safety**: 0/100
  - Tool safety not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools, or could read only part of the list.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Capabilities not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's capabilities.

**Unverified: 5 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

### How do I install the io.github.shagarwal/databazaar MCP server?

io.github.shagarwal/databazaar is a hosted endpoint at https://api.databazaar.io/mcp/public, 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.

## MCP tools (3)

### `search_datasets` (~188 tokens)

Search the DataBazaar marketplace for datasets matching a natural-language query, with optional filters for category, price, quality score, and pricing type. Returns ranked listings with prices, quality scores, and checkout URLs. When results are empty, log_data_gap can post a bounty to signal demand to sellers.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): Filter by category: geographic, pricing, sensor, images, text, financial, scientific, social, retail, other
- `limit` (integer)
- `max_price` (number): Maximum price in USD — omit to include all prices
- `min_quality_score` (number): Minimum assessed sample structure score (0-100); unassessed listings are excluded. See https://databazaar.io/quality for the rubric and limitations.
- `pricing_type` (string)
- `query` (string, required): Natural language search query describing the data needed

### `get_dataset` (~66 tokens)

Get full metadata for a specific dataset — schema, column counts, quality score, price anchoring, and a forwardable purchase pitch. Includes a checkout_url for one-click human purchase and a human_pitch field for operator messaging.

Input parameters:

- `dataset_id` (string, required): The dataset ID to retrieve

### `preview_sample` (~130 tokens)

Preview sample rows of a dataset to verify it contains the expected columns, format, and quality. Returns a signed download URL for ~50 rows plus the schema. Pass an optional question to get a synthesized answer from the sample (e.g. "average price in 2024") — no purchase required.

Input parameters:

- `dataset_id` (string, required): The dataset ID to preview
- `question` (string): Optional natural-language question to answer from the sample (e.g. "average rent in SF", "count of records per state"). Returns a synthesized_answer field with deterministic aggregates if the questio…

## Common questions

### What is the io.github.shagarwal/databazaar MCP server?

io.github.shagarwal/databazaar is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.shagarwal/databazaar. Search and preview datasets publicly. Account-required full data via MCP. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.databazaar.io/mcp/public).

### Is the io.github.shagarwal/databazaar MCP server safe to use?

io.github.shagarwal/databazaar scores 84 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 io.github.shagarwal/databazaar MCP server expose?

io.github.shagarwal/databazaar exposes 3 tools: search_datasets, get_dataset, preview_sample. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 384 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the io.github.shagarwal/databazaar MCP server require authentication?

Its publisher declares no required credentials for io.github.shagarwal/databazaar. We have not been able to confirm that against the live endpoint, and a server can require authorisation without declaring it here.

### Is the io.github.shagarwal/databazaar MCP server still maintained?

io.github.shagarwal/databazaar is still listed in the MCP registry, though our most recent checks did not reach this channel. 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.
