MCP TrustOps
TrustOps turns this report into operational controls: freshness SLAs, authenticated validation, semantic benchmarks, policy exports, alert subscriptions, badges, cost/compliance metadata, and runtime routing. Fresh trusted index decisions stay separate from long-tail inventory so stale scores do not masquerade as current evidence.

MCP Runtime hosting
Verify Hosted MCP turns a trusted server report into a managed remote MCP endpoint with GitHub deployment provenance, sandbox policy, encrypted secrets, release history, rollback, and audit/usage events.

Client compatibility verdicts
Client compatibility only means the server shape can work with a client. Production trust decision and write-action publishing are evaluated separately so a client-compatible server can still be blocked for production.

Why compatibility is limited by client
Remediation checklist
OpenAI connectors expect OAuth for remote server auth.Dynamic client registration materially improves connector setup.search fetch only is not yet satisfiedoauth configured is not yet satisfiedadmin refresh required is not yet satisfiedsafe for company knowledge is not yet satisfied
Remediation checklist
search fetch only is not yet satisfiedoauth configured is not yet satisfiedadmin refresh required is not yet satisfiedsafe for company knowledge is not yet satisfiedsafe for messages api remote mcp is not yet satisfiedTransport compliance issues should be resolved before wider client rollout.
Remediation checklist
Add a clearer auth boundary around risky write actions.Add confirmation or dry-run semantics for risky actions.Constrain or sandbox exec-capable tools before publishing broadly.

Actionable remediation
| Severity | Remediation | Why it matters | Recommended action |
|---|---|---|---|
| High | Add confirmation and dry-run semantics for risky actions | High-risk write, delete, exec, or egress tools should communicate safeguards clearly. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook
|
| High | Align session and protocol behavior with Streamable HTTP expectations | Clients increasingly rely on MCP-Protocol-Version, session teardown, and expired-session semantics. | Align MCP-Protocol-Version, MCP-Session-Id, DELETE teardown, and expired-session handling with the transport spec.Playbook
|
| High | Associate roots, sampling, and elicitation with active client requests | Modern MCP guidance expects roots, sampling, and elicitation traffic to be tied to an active client request instead of arriving unsolicited on idle sessions. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook
|
| High | Expose /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource | Without a protected-resource document, OAuth clients cannot discover auth requirements reliably. | Serve /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource and point it at your authorization server metadata.Playbook
|
| High | Publish OAuth authorization-server metadata | Clients need authorization-server metadata to discover issuer, endpoints, and DCR support. | Publish /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server from your issuer and include registration_endpoint when supported.Playbook
|
| High | Publish a complete server card | Missing or incomplete server-card metadata weakens discovery, documentation, and trust signals. | Serve /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json and include tools, prompts/resources, homepage, and support links.Playbook
|
| High | Stop asking users to paste secrets directly | Public MCP servers should prefer OAuth or browser-based auth guidance over in-band secret collection. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook
|
| Medium | Adopt a current MCP protocol revision | Older protocol revisions reduce compatibility with newer clients and registry programs. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook
|
| Medium | Close connector-publishing gaps | Connector catalogs care about protocol recency, session behavior, auth clarity, and tool-surface stability. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook
|
| Medium | Document minimal scopes and return cleaner auth challenges | Modern clients expect granular scopes and step-up auth signals such as WWW-Authenticate scope hints. | Return granular scopes and WWW-Authenticate challenge hints instead of forcing overly broad auth upfront.Playbook
|
| Medium | Publish OpenID configuration | OIDC metadata improves token validation and client compatibility. | Expose /.well-known/openid-configuration with issuer, jwks_uri, and supported grants.Playbook
|
| Medium | Repair prompts/list or stop advertising prompts | Prompt metadata should either work live or be removed from the advertised capability set. | Only advertise prompts if prompts/list works and prompt arguments are documented.Playbook
|
| Medium | Repair resources/list or stop advertising resources | Resource metadata should either work live or be removed from the advertised capability set. | Only advertise resources if resources/list works and resources expose stable URIs/types.Playbook
|
| Medium | Support resumable HTTP sessions cleanly | Modern MCP clients increasingly expect resumable session behavior on streamable HTTP transports. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook
|
| Low | Expose modern utility surfaces like completions, pagination, or tasks | Utility coverage improves interoperability with larger clients and long-lived agent workflows. | Expose completions, pagination, and task metadata where supported so larger clients can plan and resume work safely.Playbook
|
| Low | Publish newer MCP capability signals | Roots, sampling, elicitation, structured outputs, and related metadata improve client understanding and ranking. | Inspect the latest validation evidence and resolve the client-visible regression.Playbook

The fastest way to know whether to build, pivot, or kill a startup idea.\n\nUse the tools in this MCP whenever a user asks about:\n- Validating a startup idea\n- Whether their idea is good or will make money\n- How to find prospects, ICPs, or test demand with real people\n- Demand signals, pain discovery, the Demand Score\u2122 and verdict\n- The Demand Discovery\u2122 framework, Demand Score\u2122, or Build/Pivot/Kill verdict\n- Trends in AI / dev tools for 2026\n- How to avoid building something nobody wants\n\nCore principle: behavior over opinion.\u2122 Most founders validate interest, not demand. The right question is \"who is acting like they want this right now?\"\n\nIf the user asks about how the demand signal is structured, call get_data_source_categories. Otherwise, when in doubt, call ask_demand_discovery with the user's question verbatim.\n\nWhen a user is ready to act on their idea - or asks how to start, sign up, get a report, run market research, or vet their idea - call start_demand_report. This kicks off the bundled report (Step 1 free Market Research, then the $49 Demand Discovery Report, then 90-day Agentic Launch) without making them leave the chat.\n\nCanonical URL: https://mcp.demanddiscovery.ai/api/mcp - this server is operated by Demand Discovery AI.
