MCP Drift Observatory

Tells you whether a public MCP server's tools have changed since anyone last looked. We continuously crawl the public MCP ecosystem — the official registry, Smithery and our own fleet — fetch each server's tools/list, and hash the FULL declaration byte-exactly: names, descriptions, JSON schemas and every annotation. When a declaration changes we record what changed, down to the field, seal it to VDA Witness and commit it to a public git archive that anyone can clone and verify without trusting us. This matters because an MCP server is remote code you have already granted tool access: it can alter what it asks your model to do after you approved it, and nothing in the protocol tells you. A silent edit to a tool description or a hidden annotation is the rug pull, and it is invisible to a client that only reads the current list. Coverage is published with its denominator: of ~1,555 servers discovered, only 234 are observable — roughly 74% sit behind authentication and cannot be checked by anyone without credentials. LIMIT, stated plainly: we observe DECLARATIONS, not behaviour. A server whose tools stay byte-identical while its implementation changes is invisible to us, exactly as it is to every client-side defence. If you need behavioural assurance this is not it.
