# MCPExplorer

> The discovery, trust, and capability graph for MCP servers and agent tools.
> We index MCP servers, extract their tools and auth scopes, verify health in a
> sandbox, score trust with explainable reasons, and show provenance + freshness
> on every record. Directories list MCPs; MCPExplorer understands, verifies, and
> refreshes them.
