How secure is the Greenlit Books MCP server?
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Greenlit Books holds up.
Official endpoint
Operated by Greenlit Books (greenlitbooks.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 Greenlit Books adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Connected in three steps

https://greenlitbooks.com/api/mcpQuestions, answered
Is there an official Greenlit Books MCP server?
Yes — Greenlit Books operates its own remote MCP server at greenlitbooks.com. gate connects you to that official endpoint and adds security scanning, per-tool access rules, and an activity log on top.
