Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how ZoningVerdict holds up.
Operated by ZoningVerdict (zoningverdict.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
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 ZoningVerdict adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Choose ZoningVerdict in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
ZoningVerdict's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.

No. ZoningVerdict runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
It's the vendor's official endpoint, and gate scans its tools for prompt injection and hidden instructions before it goes live, re-checks it whenever it changes, and lets you allow, block, or require approval for every single tool.
Yes — you can get started with gate for free and connect ZoningVerdict in minutes. No credit card required.
Every server below works through the same gateway URL — connect once, add tools anytime.
