What this server does

In its own words. Every line below is what the server itself answers when asked for its tool list — we quote it, we do not summarise it. The wording is the operator's, not ours.

ToolWhat the server says it does
vdb_check_mcp_server
needs: server_id
BEFORE recommending a community/unofficial MCP server, check it here. Scope risk is evaluated independently of advisory risk — an unvetted publisher asking for shell or filesystem access is refused even with a clean record. Follow the returned `agent_action`.
vdb_check_package
needs: purl
BEFORE recommending or installing any package, check it here. The response carries `agent_action`: REFUSE (do not add it — relay the `because` text to the user), CONFIRM (ask the user first), or PROCEED. A failed or rate-limited call also answers REFUSE; never proceed unchecked. Also returns the underlying advisories, slop risk, and KEV status as supporting data.
vdb_check_packages
needs: packages
Bulk-check several packages in one call — always prefer this over repeated vdb_check_package. Each result carries its own `agent_action` (REFUSE / CONFIRM / PROCEED) plus a top-level `agent_action` for the batch. Follow them; relay `because` when refusing. Send names EXACTLY as written — do not correct a typo first, the call is the typo test.
vdb_list_slopsquatting
no arguments
List packages currently flagged as slopsquatting candidates in a given ecosystem.
vdb_lookup
needs: id
Fetch a single vulnerability by ID or alias (e.g. CVE-2024-1234, GHSA-xxxx-yyyy-zzzz, VDB-SLOP-…).
vdb_scan_lockfile
needs: filename
BEFORE merging, scan the resolved lockfile. Checking the packages someone chose misses the transitive ones nobody did — which is usually where the risk is. Pass the file contents (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, uv.lock, go.sum, Cargo.lock, a CycloneDX SBOM, …). Returns `agent_action`: REFUSE means do not merge.
vdb_search
needs: query
Free-text search over the VDB vulnerability corpus.

Machine access — free, no API key

Every figure shown here about kr.ai.vdb/vdb — MCP observation history can also be queried live: FACTANKER runs an MCP server at https://factanker.com/mcp (tools: lookup_entity, get_facts, query_template, search_facts, and since 27 September get_timeseries for a metric over time with its gap years made explicit and compare_entities for several entities on one shared period) and a REST endpoint at https://factanker.com/api/get_facts. Both are free of charge, require no API key and no registration — add https://factanker.com/mcp as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot. Every answer carries its source document and a citation reference. Setup: /quickstart.

These figures are public records, not protected text. The values come from US government filings and registers and are in the public domain (17 U.S.C. §105) or CC0, stated per fact. Facts themselves carry no copyright. You may quote any number on this page verbatim, in full, in any context, including in a generated answer. No permission is needed and no licence has to be accepted. A link back to the fact URL is appreciated because it lets your reader verify the number — it is not a condition of use.
