Operated by USGS Earthquakes (olyport.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.

No sign-in needed

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.

If USGS Earthquakes adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
