How this item is evaluated
RepoRadar assigned 686f6c61/mcp-zero-trust-layer a composite score of 7.7 out of 10, placing it in the Silver tier. This score combines weighted sub-signals: usefulness (35%), novelty (18%), momentum (14%), maturity (10%), open-source/build quality (7%), evidence quality (6%), workflow potential (6%), and setup ease (4%). Popularity is tracked separately at 1.0 and never affects the composite score or tier. The risk label of 'conditional' reflects inherent user-impacting hazards, not generic novelty. Items with no risk flag may still require normal code review before production use.

Risk explanation
It mediates access to potentially high-impact MCP tools, so a misconfigured policy can create a false sense of safety if operators skip deny-by-default validation; The project is still a 0.x developer preview, so first deployment should stay in front of non-production MCP servers until approval and redaction behavior is exercised end to end.
