Censys MCP — internet-scan search over the Censys Platform API (censys.com)

The last two health checks of this connector failed. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.

If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

A4/5.0

Scored across 43 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools occupy distinct niches (resolve_entity vs entity_profile vs company_facts vs recent_changes are well-separated by their descriptions), and the large polymarket suite is carefully differentiated by role. The main risk is the ask_pipeworx / ask_pipeworx_beta / ask_pipeworx_grounded trio, where beta is explicitly identical to the stable router today, plus ai_visibility_check vs scan_competitor_ai_presence overlap. Descriptions do a lot of work to disambiguate, so selection errors are mostly recoverable.

Naming Consistency4/5

All names use snake_case with no camelCase or kebab-case mixing, and families share prefixes (polymarket_*, ask_pipeworx_*, archive_*, subscribe/unsubscribe/list_subscriptions). The convention is not fully uniform, though: verb-first (resolve_entity, validate_claim, compare_entities) coexists with noun-first (entity_profile, company_facts, archive_evidence) and several Censys-prefixed tools sit oddly beside pipeworx-prefixed ones. Still readable and predictable overall.

Tool Count2/5

43 tools is heavy for any single server and far exceeds the 3-15 sweet spot, forcing agents to wade through large parallel clusters (9 prediction-market tools, 3 routers, 3 Censys tools). The breadth is partly justified by the gateway's multi-domain purpose, but the surface is well past the point where every tool clearly earns its place.

Completeness4/5

For a general structured-data gateway the lifecycle coverage is strong: entity resolution, profiles, typed facts, comparison, change feeds, validation, memory CRUD, subscription create/list/delete, and alert retrieval are all present, with graceful degradation noted throughout. Gaps are minor and mostly external (Censys tools require a BYO key, PatentsView sunset, court calendar always empty) rather than missing tool classes.
