Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Agentscore MCP Server Tools (8)
scan_package
Scan an npm package for MCP security issues. Checks install scripts, prompt injection patterns, suspicious URLs, source code patterns, dependency count, metadata completeness, and publisher provenance. Returns score (0-100), risk level, and detailed findings.
get_verdict
Get a trust verdict for an MCP package: allow, warn, or block. Based on scan findings (score and severity). Also reports monitoring status and publisher posture. Use this before installing or connecting to an MCP server.
check_exposure
Check which monitored MCP servers depend on a given package. Use this during incident response to find blast radius. Example: 'which MCP servers use axios?'
check_abuse
Check if a package or agent has been reported to the KYA abuse database. Returns whether abuse has been reported and any details.
monitor_status
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Agentscore MCP Server is categorized under Security and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Volta MCP Server belongs to Security using local stdio subprocess. Select Agentscore MCP Server when you need capabilities focused on security and Volta MCP Server when you require tools for security.
Check if an MCP package is under continuous monitoring and get its scan history. Shows current score, risk level, and recent changes.
check_my_repo
Inspect the current repo for MCP dependencies, look up AgentScore verdicts for each package, and summarise what should be gated in CI. Use this when a developer wants to understand all MCP packages in a repo instead of scanning one package at a time.
generate_policy_gate_setup
Generate the exact GitHub Actions workflow needed to enforce AgentScore Policy Gate for a repo. Detects MCP dependencies locally and returns the OIDC-based YAML needed for setup. No API key or secret is required.
install_policy_gate
Write the AgentScore Policy Gate workflow file to this repo. Creates .github/workflows/agentscore-policy-gate.yml with OIDC authentication (no API key needed). Detects MCP dependencies and includes them in the workflow. The gate will auto-provision the repo on first push.
Volta MCP Server Tools (2)
create_volta_note
Creates an encrypted note and returns a one-time URL.
