claude mcp add portview -- portview mcp

Taken from the project's README on GitHub. Check the security audit before running it.

Security audit verdict: CAUTION · quality 66/100

Flagged: sudo usage. Scanned against 42 published rules built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, refreshed every 8 hours. Full audit →

The quality score combines nine heuristic checks of the repo and its README: completeness, clarity, specificity, examples, structure, agent readiness, step-by-step content, instruction quality and security notes. It rates how well the project explains itself to an agent, not the code.

About portview

portview portview lists ports and the processes using them on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It shows process names, commands, memory usage, and uptime. You can inspect a port, stop its process, or monitor changes in an interactive terminal UI. It also supports Docker, remote hosts over SSH, and an MCP server for coding agents.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy: 42 published rules, covering credential harvesting, data exfiltration, curl | sh installers and more. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
