MCP Server

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf connect to external data sources. Our MCP server gives your AI direct access to the ISMS Directory — so you can search for consultants, auditors, and compliance platforms using natural language, right from your AI tool.

Available Tools

The server provides four read-only tools:

• search_services — Search by text query, framework, region, industry, or service type.
• check_if_listed — Check if a specific company is listed in the directory.
• get_service_details — Get full details for a service by name, with fuzzy matching.
• list_categories — List all unique values for a dimension (frameworks, regions, industries, etc.) with counts.

Installation

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "isms-directory": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@ismsdirectory/mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

claude mcp add isms-directory -- npx -y @ismsdirectory/mcp-server

npx -y @ismsdirectory/mcp-server

What You Can Ask

Once installed, you can ask your AI assistant things like:

• "Find ISO 27001 consultants in the Netherlands"
• "Is Vanta listed in the ISMS Directory?"
• "Show me SOC 2 compliance platforms for startups"
• "What frameworks are covered in the directory?"

Security

The server is designed to be 100% read-only with minimal attack surface:

• Read-only — no write operations, no side effects.
• No credentials — fetches only publicly available data.
• No filesystem access — no file reads or writes.
• No open ports — stdio transport only, no HTTP listener.
• Input validation — all inputs validated with Zod schemas and length limits.
