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 · remote - your agent's requests go to mcp.edgedepth.com

endpoint auth requires authentication - rejected our unauthenticated MCP initialize

repo age created 2026-08-09 - young repo, little track record yet

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package @edgedepth/research-mcp - the @edgedepth scope differs from the repo owner (edgedepthhq); confirm it's the project's official package

registry vendor namespace com.edgedepth - domain-verified with the official MCP registry

03 · What EdgeDepth Research can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

With this server connected, an agent can read the closed grammar registry: feature ids, types, ranges, operators, windows, sequence rules, limits, and error codes, read the research universe and coverage. The default is a compact summary, execute a research_query.v2 document and return canonical result bytes with counts, denominators, outcomes, and the reproducibility key, and read registry feature values, window aggregates, and fired rules as of a recorded moment.
