Mcpaegis

A static and isolated-dynamic security assessment service for authorized MCP servers that records the exact artifact, configuration, tests, observed behavior, limitations, remediation, retest, signature, and expiry while keeping control mappings and safety claims explicitly bounded.

The case

The research confirms an open scanner with static and proxy modes, an isolated execution substrate, an open signing ecosystem, and NIST AI-agent control overlays still in development. It did not find a reviewed managed service joining continuous assessment, mappings, and signed publication. The input's named government-vulnerability framing is not independently substantiated in the supplied findings and requires primary verification. No structural incumbent copying cost is evidenced.

Mcpaegis cannot prove an MCP server safe, compliant, non-malicious, free of vulnerabilities, or suitable for production. Static analysis misses runtime behavior; detonation observes only the tested artifact, configuration, environment, fixtures, network policy, time, and paths. A control mapping is a reviewer aid, not evidence that a control is designed or operating effectively. A signature proves integrity and signer attribution, not result truth.

The publishable artifact should be a version-bound assessment card with scope, observed findings, severity method, evidence, coverage, untested surfaces, limitations, remediation, retest, expiry, and revocation—not an evergreen “safe” badge.

Who pays — and why

MCP server publishers, enterprise platform and security teams, registries, and procurement groups that need repeatable pre-connection evidence.

What it unlocks
An assessment target with owner authorization, repository or artifact digest, version, dependencies, build provenance, configuration, declared tools, permissions, data, destinations, authentication, deployment mode, and exclusions
A test plan with static rules, dependency checks, tool-description analysis, serialization cases, input validation, command and request abuse cases, prompt-injection fixtures, egress policy, credentials canaries, resource ceilings, expected behavior, and stop conditions
A finding with observed evidence, reproduction steps, affected version and path, preconditions, impact hypothesis, severity method, uncertainty, false-positive disposition, control-reference status, owner, remediation, exception, and expiry
A signed assessment card with artifact hash, environment and test-suite versions, executed and skipped tests, findings, limitations, remediation state, retest, validation time, expiry, revocation, and verification instructions

8
Temporal window

Rapid tool-server adoption and active security research make the need current.

8
Buyer persona

Publishers and enterprise security teams have a clear pre-connection need.

5
Convergence

Several security primitives and multiple connected ideas support the direction, though managed certification is not established.

Why it scored well

A confirmed scanner, isolated execution and signing substrates, specific security buyer, dynamic test cases, reproducible findings, and expiring signed artifacts create a concrete managed wedge.

What's holding it back

Coverage is intrinsically incomplete, dynamic execution is risky, exact government claims need validation, control overlays are in development, false confidence is dangerous, and competitors can copy.
