Observed fact
This server accepted a session without any credential and lists 33 tools whose name or declaration suggests they change data (comments_create, comments_resolve, napkin_boards_update, napkin_boards_create, napkin_deck_write and 28 more). That is our reading of the names; we did not call them. Source: our connection, 2026-10-23.
Worth knowing before you connect it
- 37 tools are described as changing something (comments_create, comments_resolve, napkin_boards_update, …): our AI model's reading of the descriptions, not something we tested, and the server opened a session without any credential. We did not call them.
Each line comes from a section below, with its source and date.

Each quoted sentence is the first sentence of the publisher’s own description. The kind of tool and the “changes data” mark are our AI model’s reading of that description, not something we tested: two differently worded runs had to agree, otherwise no label is shown, and nobody has checked them by hand. A tool without the “changes data” mark is described as only reading, searching or calculating, or the two runs did not agree. No tool was called. Read the publisher’s full description before relying on it. “Publisher declares” lists the hints the server itself sends with the tool (MCP annotations: read-only, destructive, idempotent, open-world); they are the publisher's claims, not checked by us. Inputs are the parameters in the tool's own input schema: name, declared type, whether it is required, and the first sentence of its description. Read 2026-10-23.
How well are its tools described?
Features #4 and #5
How clearly this server's own tool descriptions say what a tool does, and how consistent its tool list is. The first part is an AI model's yes/no reading of each description; the second part is counted. We do not turn it into a grade.
Descriptions
AI reading of each description
- Says what the tool does

The tool set
Counted from the listing
- Tools
- 68
- Size of the list
- about 37,060 tokens for an agent to load (characters ÷ 4)
- Naming
- 68 of 68 names use snake_case
AI reading: easy to mix up
No pair found.
The AI items cover 68 of 68 tools: for a tool where two differently worded runs disagreed, that item is left out. They were not checked by hand, and no tool was called. “Easy to mix up” means two tools whose names or descriptions overlap without saying how they differ; the AI found none, comparing tools within groups of 40. We do not rate whether the tool set is complete or whether side effects are spelled out, because our AI reading of those was not reliable enough.

- Optional settings the entry also lists (left out above): Authorization.
- The server runs on the operator's infrastructure; it may ask you to sign in when you first connect.
- The MCP Inspector lists the server's tools, resources and prompts; a tool you call there runs for real.
Built from the server's registry entry with each client's documented format (checked 2026-10-14; the Cursor link and the VS Code command 2026-10-19; the MCP Inspector command 2026-10-21). Values in < > are yours to fill in; this page never contains a key. Where the server needs a setting the entry does not declare, it can still fail to start.
Does the registry listing match what we found?
Feature #6The registry verifies a package once, when it is published, and does not re-check it. A difference below is about the listing, not a judgement of the publisher.
| Registry says | We found | Result | Source · date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Remote endpoint api.zerowidth.ai/mcp/x/napkin | Session opened | matches | our test · 2026-10-23 |
| No credential declared as required | Opened a session without any credential | matches | our test · 2026-10-23 |

Read from public records only: the registry entry, npm/PyPI, GitHub and advisory databases, checked 2026-10-22. No tool was called. Only “met” and “not met” are counted, so the total differs between servers; a check that does not apply or that we could not run is listed, never counted against it. It is not a safety rating.

Common questions about ai.zerowidth/napkin
Answered from the data aboveIs ai.zerowidth/napkin safe to install?
We do not rate servers as safe or unsafe. 1 of its 2 applicable record checks are met (facts from public records, each listed on this page). What the records show: 37 of its tools describe changing data (our AI model's reading of the descriptions). These are facts with their sources on this page, not a safety guarantee, and we did not run its tools.
Is ai.zerowidth/napkin free to use?
Its website (zerowidth.ai/docs/overview/account/plans-and-billing) describes a freemium pricing model. This is an AI-classified reading of the page on 2026-10-23, so check the page itself before relying on it.
Does ai.zerowidth/napkin need an API key or sign-in?
It opened a session without any credential on 2026-10-23. The registry entry declares no required credential; no declaration is not a guarantee.
Has ai.zerowidth/napkin been security tested?
Partly. 4 of the 15 checks that apply to it were exercised. It accepted a session without any credential and lists tools whose names suggest they change data. We did not call them. No security verdict is published before verification.
What can ai.zerowidth/napkin do?
It lists 68 tools. In our AI model's reading of their descriptions (two runs had to agree, nobody checked it by hand), they include tools that read or search, create or change data, delete, send messages and run code or commands. We did not call any tool, so this describes the text, not the behaviour.
Can ai.zerowidth/napkin change or delete data?
37 of its tools say in their description that they create, edit, delete, send or run something (our AI model's reading). We did not call any tool, so we cannot say what actually happens.
Found this page useful?
Anonymous · no sign-inA quick, anonymous reaction — no account, no email. One per kind from your browser. The tally updates when the page is next refreshed, and it is only a rough count, never a safety rating or a measured number of people.

Active servers whose topic is also “productivity-and-docs” and that have at least one tool of the same kind; most kinds in common first, then most GitHub stars. The topic and the tool kinds are an AI model's reading of the publishers' descriptions, not checked by hand. Similar is not a recommendation.

How is it classified?
18 fields
One value per field, each with its source. Fields written by AI models are marked. A field with no value says why.
“There are four tiers — Free , Starter , Pro , and Enterprise .”
“Not stated” means the source did not state it; “does not apply” means it does not apply to this kind of server; “our limit” means our own lookup failed. A linked value opens the directory filtered to the same value.
