MCP100 Assessment
Watchlist / Tracking
Why we’re tracking it
The server and its curated harness catalog change as projects, rankings, and graveyard notices change; another review can check that recommendations and the published MCP package remain maintained and attributable.

All limitations / Review context
Are the published MCP package and catalog still current, and do the recommendation tools continue to reflect the repository's documented evidence?
The bounded assessment reviewed the official README, repository notices, security policy path, and security page for known material public-tracking blockers. No such blocker was identified. This is a public-tracking assessment, not an installation safety certification.
- No execution surface; treat as a learning/catalog resource.
- Public repository browsing only.
- Static catalog content.
- Installation, client compatibility and comprehensive security have not been independently audited. Authentication and access depend on the configured services.
- A project-specific SECURITY.md policy was not available at the fetched official path; the review remains limited to published repository notices.
- No installation, runtime, client matrix, or complete tool-contract audit was performed in this review.
- The fetched official SECURITY.md path returned HTTP 404; it was not treated as positive evidence.
- Catalog only; no executable MCP/server surface.

Additional setup details required — see the specific gaps below.
Install / connect
Publisher instructionsBest of Agent Harnesses is a curated documentation/list repository, not installable MCP software.
Configure / authenticate
MCP100 setup guideBrowse the README catalogue, choose a linked upstream harness, then follow THAT project installation instructions. This list publishes no universal binary or MCP endpoint.
Check connection
Suggested checkOpen linked upstream documentation and check its specific install requirements.
Remove / uninstall / revoke
MCP100 setup guideNo package or client registration to remove for reading the list.
Client unregistration, program uninstall, persistent-data deletion, and credential revocation must be treated separately.
No credentials required merely to read the catalogue.
README does not specify a tested first-party revoke command or account flow; credential may be external or not applicable depending on deployment.
Project-local credential action documented: no. This does not establish upstream credential revocation.
Credential guidance reviewed 2026-10-14; runtime tested: no.
