- Server: 0nmcp (`0nmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-0nork-0nmcp.md
- Install: `npx -y 0nmcp`
- Homepage: https://github.com/0nork/0nMCP
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server auth posture: open
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "app_validate",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why app_validate is rated Low

Validation is a read-only operation that examines an application bundle for correctness, structure, or compliance. It retrieves and analyzes data about the bundle but does not modify, execute, delete, or create side effects. The blast radius is low—a misconfigured validation call cannot harm systems or data beyond potentially false positive/negative validation results.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'app_validate' and description 'Validate a .0n application bundle' indicate inspection/verification of an existing artifact without modification, deletion, or execution."

## Use case

AI agents call app_validate to retrieve information from 0nmcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches 0nmcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "app_validate": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
