Trust breakdown (7 categories)

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 Security50
  • Malware scan not yet available for this package.Unverified
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised native-build step with no shell scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • 1 of 36 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability72
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 764 tokens (~76/item across 10 items; 10 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management83
  • Stability observed for 25 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage71
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
  • 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; "update_progress_notes" implies "overwrite" 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 10 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

How do I install the io.github.zseta/progi MCP server?

io.github.zseta/progi runs locally as a PyPI package, launched with uvx progi. 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 · 10 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_task ~83

Create a new task under the given workflow. Creates the task (status 'todo') and returns the task plus a preview of its first step. Before calling this, confirm the workflow choice with the user AND ask them what they want to name the task.

NameTypeReqDescription
descriptionstring
namestringyes
workflow_idintegeryes

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

get_playbook_authoring_prompt ~65

Return the Pass 2 system prompt for authoring a step's playbook. Workflow context (the full process, this step's position, and its input/output specs) is injected at the top of the prompt template.

NameTypeReqDescription
step_idintegeryes
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

get_process_skeleton_prompt ~59

Return the Pass 1 system prompt for authoring a new workflow's skeleton. The harness uses it to help the user convert a plain-language workflow description into a structured process skeleton (steps with input/output specs, no playbooks yet).

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

list_tasks ~53

List tasks, optionally filtered by status and/or workflow_id. Empty string / 0 means no filter. "My todos" = status="todo".

NameTypeReqDescription
statusstring
workflow_idinteger

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

list_workflows ~17

Return all workflows with their ordered steps.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

save_workflow ~69

Persist a new workflow, its steps, and playbooks. skeleton: the JSON object produced by Pass 1 (process skeleton prompt). playbooks_by_step: mapping of step name → playbook markdown string.

NameTypeReqDescription
playbooks_by_stepobjectyes
skeletonobjectyes

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

start_or_continue_task ~132

Main work-loop entry point. - done → returns a done message. - todo → starts the task (todo → in_progress) and returns step context. - in_progress → returns step context so the agent can resume. Context includes task info, the current step name + position, input_data, output_spec (the expected format/type of the deliverable), the playbook markdown, and progress_notes (if any). Before calling submit_output, verify that your output satisfies output_spec (correct type, meets constraints, includes any fields referenced by branching conditions).

NameTypeReqDescription
task_idintegeryes

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

submit_output ~197

Mark the current step complete, store its output, and advance. Either returns the next step's info (name + playbook, so the agent can continue immediately) or {'status': 'done'} if it was the last step. Pass task_name to rename the task when you now have enough context to give it a meaningful name (e.g. after the first step reveals what the task is actually about). Leave it empty to keep the current name. IMPORTANT — approval gate: if start_or_continue_task returned current_step.requires_approval = true for this step, you MUST present the output to the user and ask for explicit approval BEFORE calling this tool. Only call submit_output once the user has confirmed they are happy with the output. If they request changes, make them first, then ask again.

NameTypeReqDescription
outputobjectyes
task_idintegeryes
task_namestring

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

update_playbook ~33

Replace the playbook content for a step.

NameTypeReqDescription
contentstringyes
step_idintegeryes

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

update_progress_notes ~56

Overwrite a task's progress_notes. Only call this when the user explicitly asks to save or update progress notes. Notes are cleared automatically when a step completes.

NameTypeReqDescription
notesstringyes
task_idintegeryes

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

Common questions

What is the io.github.zseta/progi MCP server?

io.github.zseta/progi is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.zseta/progi. MCP-native workflow engine: teach agents your processes once, they execute them consistently. This page covers its PyPI package (progi).

Is the io.github.zseta/progi MCP server safe to use?

io.github.zseta/progi scores 63 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. 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.zseta/progi MCP server expose?

io.github.zseta/progi exposes 10 tools: create_task, list_tasks, start_or_continue_task, update_progress_notes, submit_output, and 5 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 764 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.zseta/progi MCP server still maintained?

io.github.zseta/progi is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 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 io.github.zseta/progi MCP server under?

io.github.zseta/progi declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
