✓ Verified directory serverBook Search (Open Library) · invokera.com

Official endpoint

Operated by Book Search (Open Library) (invokera.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.

No sign-in needed

This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.

Scanned before it goes live

gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.

Watched for drift

If Book Search (Open Library) adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
