Endpoint Security66
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability74
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 7595 tokens (~146/item across 52 items; 52 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • All 6 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 52 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100

How do I install the app.trysonar/sonar MCP server?

app.trysonar/sonar is a hosted endpoint at https://trysonar.app/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

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 →

Tool Tokens
sonar_update_screenshot ~123

Replace one screen's layout in a screenshot set. Whole-document replace — fetch the current layout, modify it, send it back. The change shows up immediately in the Screenshot Studio for human review. Requires an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

NameTypeReqDescription
layoutobjectyesThe FULL replacement layout — this replaces the whole document, it does not merge. Never send a layout containing '[inline image omitted…]' placeholders; refetch with include_image_data first.
screenshot_idstringyesScreen id (from the set's screens array).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

sonar_update_screenshot_set ~129

Rename a screenshot set, replace its extra-locale list, and/or reorder its screens. Returns the updated set (with image data stripped). Requires an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

NameTypeReqDescription
localesarrayReplaces the extra-locale list (e.g. ["de-DE","fr-FR"]). Locales removed here lose their stored translations.
