Tirekicker presents a systematic test of remote MCP servers listed in the official registry, with a free briefing offered to people on its waiting list.

For
Teams relying on remote MCP servers
Worth noticing
The test stops after the handshake and tool-list request; it does not execute tools or substitute for a security audit.

Field notes

The described procedure uses a fresh, credential-free container for each server, with capped memory and a hard time limit, then records startup behavior and fingerprints the tool list. The site says it has run the procedure twice and reports that 72% of servers demanding credentials do not disclose that in their listings. It explicitly cautions that it does not execute tools, so a successful start does not establish that a server's tools work.
