openinterp-mcp@0.2.0

VERIFIED· not started

Publisher claims: "MCP server + Colab backend for mechanistic interpretability research. Bring-your-own-agent. Privacy-first." 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
ANTHROPIC_API_KEYGITHUB_TOKENHF_TOKENOPENAI_API_KEYZENODO_TOKENConfiguration, not credentials: OPENINTERP_REGISTRY_INDEX, OPENINTERP_REGISTRY_REPO, OPENINTERP_SESSIONS_PATH, SMTP_FROM, SMTP_HOST, SMTP_PASS, SMTP_PORT, SMTP_USER, ZENODO_API
Where it talks to
openinterp.org (its own)Also ngrok-free.app, doi.org, semanticscholar.org, arxiv.org, githubusercontent.com, huggingface.co, zenodo.org — 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
server startup · the tool list · tool behavior

Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard, and read the third-party hosts first. The code names ngrok-free.app, doi.org, semanticscholar.org, arxiv.org, githubusercontent.com, huggingface.co, zenodo.org as well as its own vendor. The guard injects ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GITHUB_TOKEN, HF_TOKEN, OPENAI_API_KEY, ZENODO_TOKEN only into requests to openinterp.org (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.

$vet-skills run --secrets ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=openinterp.org,GITHUB_TOKEN=openinterp.org,HF_TOKEN=openinterp.org,OPENAI_API_KEY=openinterp.org,ZENODO_TOKEN=openinterp.org -- uvx openinterp-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 2026-11-13 and scored it 88/100 (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.
