Does the tool do what it says? A conformance harness for MCP servers, and an MCP server that reports what it found.

Does the tool do what it says? Not is it safe, not is it good. A publisher declares what an MCP tool does in a signed contract; SayDo runs the tool in a sandbox, checks it against that contract, and emits a hash-chained receipt anyone can verify in a browser with no account and no trust in the issuer.

The MCP server

pip install "saydo[mcp]"
saydo-mcp

Four tools, and the first one is a refusal:

toolanswers
scopewhat SayDo cannot settle. Call it first.
statuswhether a package has a receipt, and what that receipt establishes
inspect_definitionthe RFC 8785 tool digest, and wording aimed at the model rather than at a reader
check_nowrun a package in a sandbox and report what it did

Most packages have no receipt, so the usual answer is unknown. That keeps meaning nobody has looked. It never softens into probably fine.

What a verdict can be

pass          the declared behaviour held under the run
fail          the tool did something it declared it would not
not-covered   the run established nothing either way

A whole run resolves to CONFORMANT, NOT CONFORMANT, or INCONCLUSIVE.

INCONCLUSIVE carries most of the weight. A server that declines every call makes no network request the way an unplugged machine makes none, and a harness that scores that as three passes has certified nothing at all. A negative claim passes here only if the run observed the tool actually doing something.

What this is not

It is not a safety guarantee and no receipt should be presented as one. It says what one version of one tool did on one run, against a contract its author wrote beforehand. Drift detection and hash-chained receipts are not novel; the repository names the prior art rather than claiming otherwise.

check_now needs Docker and the repository, and refuses plainly when it does not have them rather than running something weaker and reporting it as a sandboxed result.

Source, specification, the browser verifier, and the seeded fixtures that exist to prove the harness can fail: https://github.com/vince-gonzalez/saydo
