It is distributed as @cogdepot/mcp-server on npm and as a hosted remote over streamable-http, filed under Other by this index, and declares 6 environment variables. Removals and unreachable sources are measured across every server this index tracks, contract drift across the servers that answer in consecutive snapshots; [the index's current counts](/stats) put this record in context.\n\n## Using cogDepot in Claude, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Cline, or Zed?\n\nMCP tool contracts can change remotely with no version bump. The mcpindex gate pins each contract and **HOLDs the call** when it drifts-before your agent acts. Zero credentials. This is not the package install for this server itself (use **Install this server** for that).\n\nRewrites your MCP host config so each server launches behind the gate.

A pass means the description is not lying, not that the tool is safe: a high-capability tool with an honest description still warrants caution. The deterministic conformance probe has not been run on this server yet, so the screen here is semantic-only. Posture: advisory.

One line on your project site or docs answers that with an independent record: screening verdict, registry provenance, contract drift history.

Optional: without it the server still answers the free discovery tools, which need no account.\n\n`COGDEPOT_API_BASE_URL`\n\nOptional. Point the server at a non-production cogDepot deployment, e.g. https://staging.api.cogdepot.com. Constrained to https and to cogdepot.com hosts; anything else is refused and the server exits.\n\n`COGDEPOT_OAUTH_ISSUER`\n\nRemote HTTP server only. The Cognito user-pool issuer whose access tokens are accepted, e.g. https://cognito-idp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/us-east-1_XXXX. Set together with the client id and resource, or none. Ignored by the stdio server.\n\n`COGDEPOT_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID`\n\nRemote HTTP server only. The app-client id a presented access token's client_id claim must equal. Ignored by the stdio server.\n\n`COGDEPOT_OAUTH_RESOURCE`\n\nRemote HTTP server only. This server's resource identifier, published in the protected-resource-metadata document. https only. Ignored by the stdio server.\n\n`COGDEPOT_OAUTH_SCOPES`\n\nRemote HTTP server only. Space- or comma-separated scopes advertised as available, e.g. cogdepot/read cogdepot/trade:finalize. Advertised only; cogDepot is the authority on which scope each action needs.
