mcp-server@0.8.420
VERIFIED· startup onlyPublisher claims: "MCP server that gives AI assistants access to aVenture research data on companies, people, funding, and news." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
Coverage
Startup only; authenticated tool behavior not tested.- Tested
- server startup over stdio (initialize sent) · every file read, file written and host contacted by what ran
- Not tested
- the tool list (the server exited before answering) · what the tools do when called with real credentials
What this means for the label: Verified here covers what ran. The server's tools were not exercised with a real credential, so nothing about their behavior is asserted; the credential summary below says what to do with that.
Before you give it your token
- It will ask for
LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEYSENTRY_DSNConfiguration, not credentials: API_ENV, API_URL, AVENTURE_API_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS, AVENTURE_MCP_JSON_LIMIT, AVENTURE_MCP_PATH, AVENTURE_MCP_PORT, CLICOLOR_FORCE, GIT_SHA, LANGFUSE_BASE_URL, LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT, SENTRY_RELEASE- Where it talks to
- aventure.vc (its own)Also status.invalid, placeholder.invalid — not the publisher's domain; check what for before connecting.
- What the honeypot saw
- no credential files read · no network
- What we could not test
- the tool list (the server exited before answering) · what the tools do when called with real credentials
Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard, and read the third-party hosts first. The code names status.invalid, placeholder.invalid as well as its own vendor. The guard injects LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY, SENTRY_DSN only into requests to aventure.vc (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.
Never paste a credential into a chat, a ticket or a report, including ours. How the guard holds it.

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios; startup only; authenticated tool behavior not tested) on 2026-11-11 and scored it 89/100 (Verified). In what ran, nothing we could detect went wrong: no undeclared network egress, no credential reads, no persistent instruction writes. What it does with a real credential was not observed; the static findings and the publisher carry the rest of the score. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

Tokens estimated at four characters each. The tool list is re-read by the agent on every turn, so it is the number to compare between servers that do the same job: ranked across the index.
