nativ-mcp@0.5.2

VERIFIED· not started

Publisher claims: "MCP server for Nativ — AI-powered localization platform. Translate text, manage translation memory, and access style guides from any MCP-compatible AI tool." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

Coverage

Not started: dependency install failed; the server itself was not observed.
Tested
the dependency install step · every file read, file written and host contacted by what ran
Not tested
server startup · the tool list · tool behavior

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
NATIV_API_KEYNATIV_MCP_SIGNING_ACCOUNTConfiguration, not credentials: NATIV_API_URL, NATIV_MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS, NATIV_MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS, NATIV_MCP_OUTPUT_BUCKET, NATIV_MCP_PUBLIC_URL, NATIV_OPENAI_DOMAIN_CHALLENGE
Where it talks to
usenativ.com (its own)
What the honeypot saw
no credential files read · no network
What we could not test
server startup · the tool list · tool behavior

Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard. It asks for NATIV_API_KEY, NATIV_MCP_SIGNING_ACCOUNT and talks to usenativ.com. Give the credential to the guard, not the server: the value never enters the server's environment and only travels to the host you bind. What the tools do with a real credential was not observed.

$vet-skills run --secrets NATIV_API_KEY=usenativ.com,NATIV_MCP_SIGNING_ACCOUNT=usenativ.com -- uvx nativ-mcp

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; not started: dependency install failed; the server itself was not observed) on 2026-11-09 and scored it 85/100 (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.
