## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 72/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-02T17:46:02.011165+00:00)
- activity 96, release rhythm 77, longevity 10
- inputs: {"age_days": 141, "days_push": 28, "days_rel": 72, "gap_med": 69, "n_releases_24m": 2}
- flags: young
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A Python-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude ~28 security intelligence tools across 20+ APIs, including CVE lookup, EPSS scoring, CISA KEV status, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, Shodan, and VirusTotal. It includes a one-call triage_cve orchestrator that fans out to relevant sources in parallel and returns a composite risk score with prioritized remediation guidance.

## Use cases
- triage a CVE and get a risk score
- check if a vulnerability is actively exploited in the wild
- look up EPSS exploitation probability for a CVE
- map a CVE to MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques
- investigate an IP or domain reputation with Shodan and VirusTotal
- prioritize which of many CVEs to patch first
- query threat intelligence from Claude in natural language

## When to choose
- you use Claude or another MCP-compatible AI client and want integrated CVE/threat intelligence
- you need to correlate CVSS, EPSS, KEV, and exploit data across many sources quickly
- you triage vulnerabilities regularly and want automated composite risk scoring
- you want one tool aggregating NVD, Shodan, VirusTotal, GreyNoise, and more

## When to avoid
- you need a standalone vulnerability scanner or SIEM rather than an AI assistant tool
- you don't use MCP-compatible clients like Claude
- you can't provide API keys for the commercial sources like Shodan or VirusTotal
- you need guaranteed real-time data for compliance-critical decisions
