Endpoint Security60
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability66
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 835 tokens (~208/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • 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 Coverage99
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 96% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 5 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
Install

How do I install the io.github.ShieldZCash/mcp server?

io.github.ShieldZCash/mcp is a hosted endpoint at https://shieldz.cash/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.

MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~764 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 →

Tool Tokens
create_payment_link ~165

Create a one-time crypto payment link with ZERO setup, no account, no API key. Give a destination wallet address and an amount; get back a shareable pay_url, an embeddable button, and a manage_url. Non-custodial: funds settle directly to the address you provide.

NameTypeReqDescription
addressstringyesDestination wallet (0x EVM address); funds settle here.

emailstringOptional, lets the owner claim a dashboard later
memostringDescription shown on the checkout

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_tip_jar ~192

Create a reusable 'pay what you want' tip jar with ZERO setup. The payer chooses the amount. Returns a shareable /tip url, an embeddable button, and a manage_url. Idempotent per wallet address. Non-custodial.

create_unlock ~333

Create a keyless pay-to-unlock page: sell a file link, license key, or secret text (up to 100,000 chars). The buyer pays the set USD price in crypto straight to the given wallet, then the payload is revealed on their paid confirmation, never before. To deliver an actual file (PDF/zip/etc, 10 MB) use the multipart HTTP API at /api/v1/unlocks instead. Non-custodial, no account, no API key. IMPORTANT: the acceptable-use policy forbids adult, illegal, or non-consensual content; confirm this with your principal and pass aup_accepted=true, otherwise the call fails.

NameTypeReqDescription
addressstringyesDestination wallet (0x EVM address); funds settle here.
