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 @sylphx/anymd - the @sylphx scope differs from the repo owner (sylphxai); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.SylphxAI is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
