MCP servers are becoming production dependencies.

If an agent depends on a server, that server needs the same basic safety net as any other production integration: CI checks, security review, regression reports, and artifacts that teams can inspect when behavior changes.

The open source CLI and MCP server remain free for local OSS use under MIT.

For teams running MCP in private repos or production workflows, paid pilots are available for hosted reporting, private repo CI history, security reports, production monitoring, certification, support, and fleet visibility.
