Is appstore-data-mcp safe?
MCP server for live App Store and Google Play data: app details, reviews, search and top charts, via the App Store Google Play Data API.
This server can change things — files, a browser, a database, or paid online services. Limit what it can reach.
Why: uses your API keys to call online services.
What it can do
- Calls internet services
- Needs API keys or tokens
Tools it offers your AI (5):
- search_apps
- get_app
- get_app_reviews
- top_charts
- list_categories
How to use it safely
- ✓ Content it fetches from the internet can carry prompt-injection instructions.
- ✓ Use a key with the smallest permissions available, and never paste a production key into a shared config.
- ✓ Pin the version (below) so an update can't change what it does without you noticing.
Code patterns worth reviewing
Automated pattern matches in the published package. Some are expected for this kind of server, and some may be false positives — they are pointers for review, not confirmed vulnerabilities.
External content fed into the prompt without isolation
The agent pulls in outside content (web pages, emails, retrieved documents) and adds it to its prompt, with no visible marking of that content as untrusted data.
