A Why this grade threat 94 − adoption risk = 91/100

The grade answers one question — how safe is this server for you to adopt — so it is computed in two auditable stages. Nothing below is an opinion or an LLM's guess; every line is a real term the deterministic engine applied, and the same input always yields the same number.

1. Threat score — 100 − 6.3 = 94. What the published surface and source actually contain:

PointsWhat was foundCategory
−6.3 Near-miss of exa-mcp-server MTC-SUP-005 supply-chain

2. Client adoption risk — 94 − 3 = 91. Three small, subtract-only factors that reflect your risk in adopting it — a clean scan proves less on a powerful, unverified or barely-inspectable package, so the grade says so plainly:

PointsAdoption-risk factor
−3 capability blast radius (moderate) — client exposure if the model is manipulated

Findings 2

medium Untrusted input can drive an external actionMTC-FLOW-005

Untrusted-input tools ([esa_get_post]) co-exist with external-action tools ([esa_create_comment, esa_get_markdown_syntax_help]). A prompt injection could cause unwanted external actions, though no direct sensitive-data leak path was found.

Evidence: untrusted [esa_get_post] → sinks [esa_create_comment, esa_get_markdown_syntax_help]

Fix: Require confirmation for state-changing/egress actions triggered after processing untrusted content.

Location: flow esa_get_post → esa_create_comment

medium Near-miss of exa-mcp-server (edit distance 1)MTC-SUP-005

"@esaio/esa-mcp-server" is edit-distance 1 from the package "exa-mcp-server" (keyboard-adjacent slip). Verify this is the intended package.

Fix: Confirm you meant "exa-mcp-server". Install packages only from their documented, official name.

Location: package @esaio/esa-mcp-server

Versions 2

Scan history per published version. The engine is deterministic — the same version always yields the same score, so a changed score means the package itself changed.

Show this server's live Trust Score in your README, docs or website. The badge is served straight from the registry and updates automatically after every rescan — no API key needed. It links back to this page, so anyone who sees the grade can also read the findings behind it instead of taking a number on faith.
