Emisar MCP Server

Leave the agent working. Keep production authority bounded. emisar gives MCP-capable agents a catalog of declared infrastructure actions instead of a shell. Policy decides what runs, what waits for a person, and what is denied. A small outbound-only runner checks the action again on the host before it executes anything. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.

Teams that work with devops, elixir and security and want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in Elixir.

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as remote - your agent's requests go to emisar.dev

endpoint auth requires authentication - rejected our unauthenticated MCP initialize

license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use

registry vendor namespace dev.emisar - domain-verified with the official MCP registry
