What io.github.KryptosAI/mcp-observatory does

The first testing tool that is itself an MCP server. Your AI agent can scan, test, record, replay, and verify other MCP servers autonomously — catching regressions, schema drift, and security issues without human intervention.

Test This Server

Run this in your terminal to verify the server starts. Then let us know if it worked — your result helps other developers.

npx -y '@kryptosai/mcp-observatory' 2>&1 | head -1 && echo "✓ Server started successfully"

After testing, let us know if it worked:

MCP Observatory maps the risk graph of agent toolchains before agents depend on them. It helps teams validate MCP servers before deployment into sensitive, regulated, or mission-critical agentic AI environments.

Agents should not depend on tools nobody tests. MCP Observatory turns a local MCP check into portable receipts, risk graphs, release-gate evidence, SARIF for GitHub Code Scanning, GitHub Actions gates, schema drift detection, trust status output, score badges, and agent-accessible diagnostics.

npx @kryptosai/mcp-observatory audit npx -y my-mcp-server --profile nsa-mcp --format markdown --output mcp-audit.md

Sample trust output:

{ "target_id": "my-mcp-server", "profile": "nsa-mcp", "score": 87, "status": "needs_review", "finding_count": 2 }

The nsa-mcp profile is not an official certification. It maps MCP Observatory findings to practical control areas for sensitive environ
