Our instrument classed it

agent×5 — that is our classifier's label from the user-agent, not the operator's, and it has been wrong before.

How to verify it is really them

Not observed. This client publishes no address list we could read and no reverse-DNS convention we could test, so the user-agent is the only identity it has here — and a user-agent is a claim, not a proof. Anyone can send this string.

What it publishes about you afterwards

Not observed. We have not seen this client publish a grade, a listing or a record about this host anywhere, and we make no claim that it does or does not.

Its own documentation

It names https://verifymcp.io/docs/build/owners-json in its own user-agent. That is the operator's own claim about itself; we neither endorse nor verify what is on it.

Its user-agent points at https://verifymcp.io/docs/build/owners-json, which is the document it came to read. It asked this host for /mcp/.well-known/owners.json before that file existed; the log below shows when the same path started answering 200.

Checked 2026-09-01 against its own user-agent string, and our request log.

Method, and what this page will not say

Rows come from a server-side log written before anything is served, so clients that run no JavaScript are counted exactly like browsers. The window is the whole life of the log, 2026-08-31 23:12:20Z to 2026-09-01 04:12:18Z UTC, and it is stated on every number because a count without a window is not a fact. Addresses are stored as salted hashes and counted, never printed. Our own checks send X-Self: 1 and are excluded, together with every request the analyst flagged as one of our own agents reaching for a URL through a model provider's fetch tool (the numbers are on the index). Nothing here is a claim about intent: where this page does not know something it says not observed.
