What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as Claude Desktop extension (.mcpb bundle) · remote - your agent's requests go to vastlint.org

license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
registry namespace io.github.aleksUIX is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
