- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management83
- Stability observed for 25 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
check_model Check a model's lifecycle status ~116
Check whether an LLM model id is safe to use, deprecated, or retired, and what to migrate to. Accepts the exact string used in code (e.g. 'gpt-4o', 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929', 'anthropic/claude-opus-4-1'). Call this before writing or changing any hardcoded model id.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| model | string | yes | Model id or alias exactly as it appears in code, e.g. 'gpt-4o'. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_retiring_models List models retiring soon ~76
List tracked models scheduled to retire within a time window, soonest first. Use this to audit a codebase or plan migration work.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| provider | string | – | Restrict to one provider. Omit for all providers. |
| withinDays | integer | – | Only include models retiring within this many days. Defaults to 180. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
recent_lifecycle_changes Recent lifecycle changes ~65
Lifecycle state changes across all tracked providers, newest first. Use this to answer 'what model deprecations happened recently?'.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| provider | string | – | Restrict to one provider. |
| sinceDays | integer | – | Look back this many days. Defaults to 30. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_models Search the model catalog ~73
List tracked models, optionally filtered by provider and lifecycle state. Use this to discover what is currently available from a provider.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Maximum results. |
| provider | string | – | Filter by provider. |
| state | string | – | Filter by canonical lifecycle state, e.g. 'active' or 'deprecated'. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
suggest_replacement Suggest a replacement for a model ~56
Given a deprecated or retiring model, return the provider's recommended replacement(s) and, when none is published, active models from the same provider to consider.

What tools does the LLMIntel Model Lifecycle MCP server expose?
LLMIntel Model Lifecycle exposes 5 tools: check_model, list_retiring_models, suggest_replacement, search_models, recent_lifecycle_changes. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 386 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the LLMIntel Model Lifecycle MCP server still maintained?
LLMIntel Model Lifecycle is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
