depguard_verify

MCP tool from Depguard by mopanc

AI hallucination guard — does this package exist? Is it a typosquat?

How to use it

Project documentation lists depguard_verify for the Depguard MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
