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: we found no dependency list to check in this bundle: either it runs a compiled binary, whose bundled manifests we do not read, or none of the package.json, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml or uv.lock files it ships for its runtime declares a dependency we can read (a requirements.txt that only points at a setup.py project, a local path, or a nested requirements file we cannot follow counts as none).Unverified
- Install-script risk not yet assessed.Unverified
- Dependency health could not be checked: we found no dependency list to check in this bundle: either it runs a compiled binary, whose bundled manifests we do not read, or none of the package.json, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml or uv.lock files it ships for its runtime declares a dependency we can read (a requirements.txt that only points at a setup.py project, a local path, or a nested requirements file we cannot follow counts as none).Unverified

Stability & Change Management53
- Stability observed for 16 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial

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.
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

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 →

How do I install the Pages Native MCP server?
Pages Native ships as an MCPB bundle, a single file you download and open in an MCP host that supports MCPB bundles, such as Claude Desktop. The host reads the launch command from the bundle's own manifest, so there is no command to copy. Before opening it, check the file's SHA-256 matches the one the MCP registry declares for it, 5c13cc4fab3f2b8c64a68cdee4590cc5293121f41fd6874c1d1ef63f87f062b6; the commands to do that are on this page. If it does not match, do not open it.

What is the Pages Native MCP server?
Pages Native is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.viames/pages-native. Native Apple Pages: guarded edits, templates, batches, recipe history and PDF previews. This page covers its MCPB bundle (https://github.com/viames/pages-native/releases/download/v0.5.0/pages-native-0.5.0.mcpb).
Is the Pages Native MCP server safe to use?
Pages Native scores 42 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 Pages Native MCP server expose?
Pages Native exposes 36 tools: pages_status, pages_diagnostics, pages_compatibility, pages_documents, pages_templates, and 31 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,775 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
What licence is the Pages Native MCP server under?
Pages Native declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
