Registry Coverage

Registry Coverage

Distinguishing passive indexing from trust signals that came from actual live interaction, certification review, or ongoing monitoring.

How the public metrics work

Indexed

Discovered in the ecosystem

Servers found through npm, GitHub, docs sites, and community references. Useful for coverage, but not proof of runtime behavior.

Live verified

Actually contacted and exercised

CraftedTrust connected to the target and generated evidence from live interaction, not just metadata.

Certified

Reviewed for public trust signaling

Publisher completed assisted review and certification workflows, earning public certification status and reports.

Monitored

Tracked for drift over time

Recurring re-scan and score-change monitoring. The strongest ongoing signal in the public registry.

Why live verification matters

1
Passive metadata can drift
A README or package manifest can look clean while the running server exposes very different tools, permissions, or error behavior.
2
Runtime tells the truth
Connecting to the endpoint reveals transport security, protocol handling, declaration accuracy, and whether risky behavior appears under actual use.
3
Certification adds accountability
Publisher identity, remediation, reports, and recurring checks turn a snapshot score into an operator relationship and a trust signal buyers can revisit.

How to improve coverage quality

  • Request verification when a server is important to your workflow but only passively indexed
  • Sponsor a scan for ecosystems or tool categories you want prioritized
  • Encourage publishers to move from indexing into certification and monitoring
  • Use badge embeds and profile traffic as prioritization signals for recurring work
Next steps

Take action

CraftedTrust is an input to approval, not a substitute for it. Use buyer diligence when your team needs help interpreting score, scan depth, and public research in a real approval workflow.
