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 remote - your agent's requests go to www.gryz.ai
endpoint auth requires authentication - rejected our unauthenticated MCP initialize
repo age created 2026-08-26 - young repo, little track record yet
license MIT - declared in the repository
registry namespace io.github.grtwo-jcansler is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
Limitations (from the README)
Private scratchpad - not published to the web. Great for lists, decisions, and drafts you are not ready to share yet. - List notes - search your notes; check agent_access before editing - Create note - start a new private note - Append note - add to an existing note without overwriting - Update note - rewrite a note in place - Delete note - remove a note (restorable from the dashboard briefly)
