Agent Passport MCP vs MCP Server Scf

A side-by-side look at the Agent Passport MCP and MCP Server Scf MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.

Tools & capabilities

Agent Passport MCP tools 152

  • list_profilesShow available tool profiles. Set APS_PROFILE env var to limit exposed tools (e.g. APS_PROFILE=data).
  • list_tools_for_scopeList available MCP tools filtered by delegation scope. Pass your delegation scopes to see which tools you can use. Scopes: identity, delegation, principal, reputation, coordination, communication, governance, commerce, data, gateway, network, temporal, attribution, settlement, capability, mutual-auth. Use ['*'] for all tools.
  • identifyIdentify yourself to the coordination server. Sets your role and scopes tools accordingly.
  • generate_keysGenerate an Ed25519 keypair for agent identity.
  • issue_passportIssue a complete agent passport with keys, signed passport, attestation summary, and optional values floor in a single call. The server silently captures Tier 0 observed signals and computes a passport grade (0-3). Use this to onboard any agent — no npm install required.
  • verify_issuerVerify that a passport was officially issued by AEOESS. Checks the issuer countersignature against the published AEOESS public key. Returns false for self-signed passports.
  • get_passport_gradeQuery the attestation grade and issuance context for a passport. Returns the passport grade (0-3), flags, and evidence summary. Grade 0 = self-signed, 1 = issuer countersigned, 2 = runtime-bound, 3 = principal-bound. This is the partner-facing trust query.
  • list_issuance_recordsList all stored issuance records with their passport grades. Shows how many passports have been issued in this session and their trust posture. Useful for monitoring issuance patterns.
  • get_behavioral_sequenceGet the post-issuance behavioral sequence for an agent. Shows the first 10 tool calls after passport issuance. Real agents do work. Farming agents extract. This is consilium signal #2.
  • get_my_roleGet your current role, assigned tasks, and role-specific instructions.
  • create_task_brief[OPERATOR] Create a new task with roles, deliverables, and acceptance criteria.
  • assign_agent[OPERATOR] Assign an agent to a role in a task. Creates a delegation automatically.

MCP Server Scf tools 196

  • scf_list_controlsList SCF security controls from the reference catalog. Returns paginated controls with SCF ID, title, description, and mapped frameworks. Filter by domain, framework, or free-text search.
  • scf_get_controlGet a single SCF control by ID. Returns description, mapped frameworks, assessment objectives, and linked evidence items from the reference catalog.
  • scf_list_frameworksList every compliance framework mapped in the SCF catalog (NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, SOC 2, FedRAMP, GDPR, and 350+ more). Returns framework identifiers and display names.
  • scf_list_domainsList every compliance domain in the SCF taxonomy. Domains group related controls (e.g., GOV = Governance, AST = Asset Management, IAC = Identity & Access Control).
  • scf_list_evidence_catalogList evidence items from the SCF reference catalog — the 272 standard evidence types that can be collected to demonstrate control implementation. Supports free-text search and pagination.
  • scf_list_assessment_objectivesList SCF assessment objectives — the 5,736 test criteria used to evaluate control implementation. Optionally filter by control ID; supports free-text search and pagination.
  • scf_get_domainGet one SCF domain with its controls (read, no org). Deprecated controls are excluded unless include_deprecated is set; a deprecated domain still resolves, badged.
  • scf_get_catalog_evidenceGet one catalog evidence entry with the controls it maps to (read, no org). The reference definition, not an organization's tracking record — see scf_get_evidence for that.
  • scf_list_scoped_controlsList controls scoped to the organization with implementation status. Filter by scope status, domain, framework, CSF function, weighting, or free-text search. Paginated.
  • scf_get_scoped_controlGet one scoped control in detail: owner, implementation notes, evidence links, and audit history. Identify by scf_id, not by UUID.
  • scf_update_scoped_controlUpdate a scoped control's implementation fields (write — editor+ role). Identify by scf_id, not UUID. Only provided fields are applied.
  • scf_get_scoping_statsGet the organization's implementation statistics: counts by status, overall completion percentage, and per-framework coverage breakdown.
