Install from

M8ven verifies MCPs across every public registry — install directly from whichever one you prefer.

// key findings
16 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
14 read-only tools verified — handlers contain no write/delete/exec
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.
// environment variables
To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.
configSTRAVA_DATA_DIRSTRAVA_TOKEN_FILE is optional. Strava can rotate refresh tokens, and the server writes the newest token to /auth.json by default.

// quality suggestions

All four hints declared on every tool

16/16 tools missing one or more hints — strava_recent_activities (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); strava_athlete_profile (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); strava_activity_detail (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +13 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Tool inputs are validated

10/16 tool handlers declare input schemas (63%)

Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.

Tool test coverage

Only 3/16 tools referenced in tests (19%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.

Claim the listing to review these findings one by one and send us a correction where you disagree, straight to the team. Claiming also means we tell you when the grade moves, and reach you first if we find anything urgent.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 3 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
