+ # Open Core And Commercial Boundary
2
+
3
+ MCP Observatory should be easy to adopt and hard to replace.
4
+
5
+ The public project is the evidence engine: it gives maintainers, agents, and security teams reproducible MCP checks they can run locally or in CI. The commercial product is the intelligence and workflow layer around that evidence: private fleet context, account-level prioritization, buyer-ready reports, and hosted review operations.
6
+
7
+ ## What Stays Open
8
+
9
+ These surfaces are intentionally public because they increase trust, integrations, and maintainer adoption:
10
+
11
+ - local CLI and MCP server mode
12
+ - safe `attack-sim` checks
13
+ - `audit --profile nsa-mcp`
14
+ - public artifact schemas
15
+ - JSON, Markdown, HTML, JUnit, and SARIF reporters
16
+ - GitHub Actions setup and generated CI workflows
17
+ - public health scores and badges
18
+ - public Safety Index evidence
19
+ - public methodology, field guides, and contribution docs
20
+
21
+ Open evidence creates distribution. A maintainer should be able to rerun a public receipt without asking for permission.
22
+
23
+ ## What Stays Proprietary
24
+
25
+ These surfaces should remain private unless there is a deliberate licensing or customer agreement:
26
+
27
+ - private telemetry exports, raw events, emails, hostnames, and account identifiers
28
+ - company/account intelligence derived from telemetry or usage patterns
29
+ - proprietary Safety Index ranking weights, confidence models, and lead prioritization
30
+ - commercial report templates beyond sanitized public samples
31
+ - buyer-specific evidence packs, remediation notes, and procurement packets
32
+ - hosted dashboard workflows, retention logic, and fleet visibility
33
+ - runtime/flight-recorder storage, alerting, SIEM export, and incident timelines
34
+ - sales scripts, pricing exceptions, lead lists, and partnership notes
35
+
36
+ The public health score in this repository is open source. Commercial scoring can add portfolio context, usage confidence, buyer priority, repeat drift, account fit, and fleet risk without publishing those weights in the OSS repo.
37
+
38
+ ## Public Safety Index Rule
39
+
40
+ The public Safety Index should publish reproducible readiness evidence, not a cloneable business engine.
41
+
42
+ Publish:
43
+
44
+ - target name and safe startup command
45
+ - tool version and run date
46
+ - generated JSON/Markdown/SARIF artifacts
47
+ - verdict and action receipt
48
+ - maintainer note and CI command
49
+
50
+ Keep private:
51
+
52
+ - raw private telemetry behind target selection
53
+ - exact commercial prioritization weights
54
+ - buyer-specific interpretation
55
+ - unapproved customer names, emails, domains, hostnames, or internal repos
56
+ - any claim that a public guidance mapping is an official agency endorsement
57
+
58
+ ## Paid Product Wedge
59
+
60
+ The paid product should package the same evidence into decisions a buyer can act on:
61
+
62
+ - private MCP dependency inventory
63
+ - safe-mode attack simulation evidence pack
64
+ - CI/SARIF gate rollout
65
+ - drift and schema-change review
66
+ - owner-ready remediation backlog
67
+ - executive summary and procurement-friendly due diligence packet
68
+ - recurring review cadence for production MCP fleets
69
+
70
+ The open source project proves the method. The commercial product saves a team time, reduces review risk, and gives leadership a defensible record.
71
+
72
+ ## Handling Clones
73
+
74
+ Assume visible CLI features can be copied. The moat should come from:
75
+
76
+ - being the canonical receipt format maintainers already recognize
77
+ - accumulating public Safety Index evidence and maintainer conversations
78
+ - knowing which adoption signals matter through private telemetry
79
+ - turning noisy artifacts into buyer-ready reports quickly
80
+ - building trust with security teams through careful privacy and non-destructive defaults
81
+
82
+ Do not respond to clones by hiding the core OSS loop. Respond by making the public evidence standard more useful and keeping the commercial intelligence layer private.

+ # Contributor Proof Cards
2
+
3
+ Contributor proof cards are small Markdown records for accepted MCP Observatory contributions. They are designed to be linked from the contributor page, target gallery, GitHub profile badges, and maintainer PRs.
4
+
5
+ Each proof card must point to public proof only: a merged PR, generated Safety Index artifact, public report, upstream workflow, or maintainer-visible issue. Do not include private telemetry, secrets, local paths, unpublished maintainer data, or private repo details.
6
+
7
+ ## Proof Card Template
8
+
9
+ Copy this template into a new file named after the target or contribution:

+ # MCP Observatory Contributors
2
+
3
+ MCP Observatory recognizes useful public evidence, not vanity activity. A good contribution helps maintainers and agents trust one more MCP server: a safe startup command, a reproducible target, a CI adoption PR, a SARIF/Code Scanning improvement, a review, or a better agent prompt.
4
+
5
+ Official GitHub profile achievements are platform-controlled; this project does not award them. The project-level substitute is public proof: contributor roles, All Contributors credit, proof cards, recognition links, and links to merged PRs or generated artifacts.
6
+
7
+ ## Recognition Roles
8
+
9
+ | Role | What Counts | Public Proof |
10
+ | --- | --- | --- |
11
+ | Target Scout | Finds a public MCP server with a no-secret, non-destructive startup command | Issue, PR, or target suggestion linked to the command |
12
+ | Target Verifier | Adds a Safety Index target and generated evidence | Merged PR plus JSON/Markdown artifacts |
13
+ | CI Integrator | Adds Observatory CI, `setup-ci --doctor`, or SARIF upload to a repo | Upstream PR, workflow file, or adoption artifact |
14
+ | SARIF Fixer | Improves normalized findings, GitHub Code Scanning output, or docs that help a maintainer reproduce SARIF | Merged PR, SARIF sample, or Code Scanning demo artifact |
15
+ | Maintainer Partner | Confirms safe startup behavior, reviews evidence, or accepts an integration PR for their MCP server | Maintainer comment, merged upstream PR, or issue acceptance |
16
+ | Docs/Agent Prompt Contributor | Improves docs, `llms.txt`, `AGENTS.md`, or copy-paste tasks agents can run safely | Merged docs PR or prompt artifact |
17
+
18

19
+
20
+ | Level | Name | How To Earn It | Typical Reward |
21
+ | --- | --- | --- | --- |
22
+ | 1 | Target Scout | Submit one safe startup command for a public MCP server | Role mention and badge snippet |
23
+ | 2 | Target Verifier | Add a target PR with generated Safety Index evidence | Proof card and All Contributors credit |
24
+ | 3 | CI Integrator | Help an upstream repo add Observatory CI/SARIF | CI Integrator badge and proof link |
25
+ | 4 | Maintainer Partner | Help another maintainer review, merge, or tune adoption | Maintainer Partner role and proof card |
26
+ | 5 | Ecosystem Maintainer | Repeatedly help targets, docs, reviews, or agent tasks stay current | Featured recognition on this page |
27
+
28
+ ## What One Target PR Gets You
29
+
30
+ One merged target PR may result in after maintainer review:
31
+
32
+ - an All Contributors entry in [CONTRIBUTORS.md](../CONTRIBUTORS.md)
33
+ - a role on this page
34
+ - a proof card under [`docs/contributor-proof-cards/`](./contributor-proof-cards/)
35
+ - a badge snippet you can place in your GitHub profile or project README
36
+ - links to the merged PR and generated public evidence
37
+
38
+ Recognition links to public proof only. Do not include private telemetry, local machine paths, secrets, unpublished maintainer data, or private repo details.
