What this decoy is

MCP-oriented honeypot graded with the UHBS MCP protocol plugin.

For CTI analysts

  • Emerging surface: observe tool enumeration and JSON-RPC abuse against MCP decoys.

Primary signals: MCP initialize/tools/list and JSON-RPC calls.

For blue teams / detection engineering

  • Distinguish UHBS MCP grading from the uhbs_mcp host tooling — different roles.
  • Strictly allowlist tools; assume prompt/tool injection attempts.

Trust & limitations

  • Evaluation proof under UHBS 4.2.2 — not a certification or endorsement.
  • Prefer full/ over quick/ for decisions.
  • Reading guide: READING-UHQS.md.
