Questions are asked in the reader's own AI agent (Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, opencode), which reads the same records through 50…

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
repo age created 2026-09-19 - young repo, little track record yet
license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
pypi package alphadesk - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.vigneshv1cky is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
