The grade above is for the source repository. Registries can serve a different version, so we mark the ones we were not able to read.

// key findings
✅
143 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
47 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.
🔐
You'll be asked for 1 credential: QGIS_MCP_TOKEN
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// 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.
🔐 secretQGIS_MCP_TOKENOptional shared secret. When set, the plugin rejects any command without a matching token. See [Authentication](#authentication).
configQGIS_MCP_LOG_FILELog file path (empty to disable)
configQGIS_MCP_LOG_LEVELFile log level
configQGIS_MCP_HOSTHost for socket connection
configQGIS_MCP_INSTANCESAddress several running QGIS windows from one server. See [Multiple QGIS instances](#multiple-qgis-instances).
configQGIS_MCP_PORTPort for socket connection
configQGIS_MCP_AUTO_CONFIRMConfirmation elicitation on destructive tools (execute_code, remove_layer, delete_features, ...) is skipped by default: your client already asks before running them, so it was a second prompt for the same call. Set to 0/false/no/off to elicit anyway - worth it only for a client that runs tools unattended.
configQGIS_MCP_TOOL_MODEgranular (118 tools) or compound (27 grouped)
configQGIS_MCP_TRANSPORTMCP transport: stdio or streamable-http
configKIMI_CODE_HOMEAdd to ~/.kimi-code/mcp.json (or $/mcp.json). A .kimi-code/mcp.json
configCOPILOT_HOMEAdd to ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json (directory overridable via $):

Tool annotations

92/143 tools have annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

143/143 tools missing one or more hints — diagnose (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_qgis_instances (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_qgis_info (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +140 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.

// 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 2 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
