Endpoint Security57
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability62
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 3194 tokens (~245/item across 13 items; 13 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 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
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety75
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "neural_handover" implies "transfer" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
  • An AI judge read all 14 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 Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents MCP server?

Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents is a hosted endpoint at https://forge.synapselayer.org/api/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 · 13 exposed · ~2,466 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 →

Is the Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents MCP server safe to use?

Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents scores 74 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 Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents MCP server expose?

Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents exposes 13 tools: recall, save_to_synapse, process_text, search, health_check, and 8 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,466 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents MCP server still maintained?

Synapse Layer — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 26 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
