02 · Evidence
Security posture
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 local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
license MIT - declared in the repository
npm package @ethora/mcp-server - the @ethora scope differs from the repo owner (dappros); confirm it's the project's official package
registry namespace io.github.dappros is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
