MCP Rug-Pull Watch — catch MCP servers that silently change their tools
MCP Rug-Pull Watch — continuous longitudinal trust history for MCP servers
A point-in-time check misses a silent tool-schema change that happens the day after the scan. A continuous watcher catches it the moment it happens.

Want the same continuous watcher + a real probe battery against YOUR server? The 48-hour MCP server security audit is \$750, 48-hour SLA, refund if no actionable findings.

This is the missing primitive for the MCP era, and the framing is exactly right: a point-in-time check can't catch a server that mutated last week. The rug-pull threat is underrated because it's not a classic CVE, it's a trust-decay, a tool whose description or params quietly change, and since the model reads the tool description as instructions, a mutated description is a prompt-injection vector that ships through an update you never reviewed. Longitudinal snapshotting is the only honest defense, you have to diff behavior over time, not vouch for a version once. The hard part ahead is signal quality: legit servers update constantly, so the win is distinguishing benign version bumps from semantically dangerous drift (scope creep in params, a tool that now reads more than it used to) without drowning people in noise. This is squarely the kind of guardrail I think agent systems like Moonshift will need by default. Are you diffing just the tool schemas, or also fingerprinting actual response behavior to catch a server that keeps its description but changes what it does?
