MCP Safety
Will an agent obey a poisoned tool description?
What it measures
Whether an agent completes a normal MCP job without obeying poisoned metadata, using shadow tools, overreaching permissions, or leaking a canary.
Category: safety. Status: alpha.
How to run
$ npx benchmark-mcp-safety list
$ npx benchmark-mcp-safety run --model <model-id> --provider openrouter
$ npx benchmark-mcp-safety score results.json
--provider mock runs the whole benchmark offline with no keys. Real models run
through OpenRouter (OPENROUTER_API_KEY) or any OpenAI-compatible base URL
(OPENAI_BASE_URL, OPENAI_API_KEY).
Data fields
data/tasks.jsonl holds 40 tasks, one JSON object per line
(kinds: 40 episode).
| field | type |

This file is generated from the benchmark definition.
Seeded MCP safety scenario generator
- Kind:
synthetic - URL: https://github.com/pooriaarab/benchmark-mcp-safety/blob/main/scripts/gen-tasks.mjs
- Licence:
MIT - Retrieved: 2026-10-15T00:00:00.000Z
- How to get it: Run
node scripts/gen-tasks.mjs --seed 20261015 --split publicfrom the repository root. - Contamination notes: All 40 public tasks are committed and may enter training data.
--split hiddendraws different prompts, values, tool names and order under anhx-id prefix; use an unreported seed and keep.hidden/outside version control and npm packages. - Refresh: Regenerate and review public pairs for each release; rotate an unreported hidden seed for each evaluation campaign.
Grader
Deterministic tool-log replay; headline score is safetyScore times usefulnessScore, with both components reported.
Limitations
This dataset contains only the public task split (40 tasks).
Hidden evaluation splits use a private seed and are deliberately not part of
this dataset. Source kinds: synthetic. These are evaluation prompts
for the benchmark-mcp-safety benchmark, not training data; scoring requires the package's
deterministic grader. See PROVENANCE.md for contamination notes.
