Category Testing and QA
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security69
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- CVE check failed: a known high-severity CVE affects sharp 0.33.5, a direct dependency. A fixed version is available. View diagnostics → Fail
- Install-script check failed: the install command fetches or executes arbitrary code (inline_eval). An install hook runs on every machine, in CI, and on transitive installs, whether or not you ever run the server. View diagnostics → Fail
- 42 of 161 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 100 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability78
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 939 tokens (~156/item across 6 items; 5 tools + 1 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
Stability & Change Management77
- Stability observed for 23 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage93
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 80% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
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 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.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 →
get_latest_report ~25
Return the most recent UX review report content.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| format | string | – | – |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
review_flow ~374
Run a scripted user-flow review against a URL. Captures frame bursts after every interaction and asks the vision LLM to grade animation quality, missing transitions, loading-state feedback, choreography, smoothness, and flicker. Use this when the user asks about animations, interaction states, or whether a flow feels good — NOT for static design issues (use review_url for those).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| burst_fullpage | boolean | – | Use full-page captures in each burst frame (slower; for in-page scroll animations). Default viewport-only. |
| consistency | number | – | Self-consistency samples (1=off, 3=recommended for harder flows). Default 1. |
| model | string | – | Model override. |
| name | string | – | Human label for the flow (used in artifact filenames). Default: 'flow'. |
| preferences_path | string | – | Optional path to a markdown file with team motion preferences. Embedded into the prompt and the report's CC handoff block. |
| provider | string | – | LLM provider override (auto|ollama|anthropic|openai|google|mock). |
| record | boolean | – | Record the full Playwright video alongside the contact sheet. Default true. |
| spec_path | string | – | Alternative to `steps`: path to a flow spec JSON file. |
| steps | string | – | Inline DSL: semicolon-separated steps. Actions: navigate <path>, click <selector>, hover <selector>, type <selector>=<value>, press <key>, scroll <px>, wait <ms>, capture "<label>". e.g.: 'navigate /… |
| url | string | yes | Base URL for the flow (joined with each step's `navigate`). |

review_url ~212
Capture and analyze a URL for UI/UX issues using vision AI.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| format | string | – | Output format (default: md). 'html' is a polished, shareable report. |
| max_findings | number | – | Keep only the top N findings, severity-ordered (agent focus). |
| max_pr_annotations | number | – | SARIF only: emit at most N results per report, severity-ordered (reviewer fatigue). |
| model | string | – | Model override. |
| new_only | boolean | – | Report only findings not seen in prior runs of the same URL. |
| provider | string | – | LLM provider override (auto|ollama|anthropic|openai|google|mock). |
| record | boolean | – | Record a video of the capture. |
| url | string | yes | URL to review. |
| viewports | array | – | Viewports to capture (default: mobile + desktop). |
| wait_for | string | – | CSS selector or 'networkidle' to wait for before capture. |

tune_animations ~187
Detect every animation on a page (CSS transitions/keyframes plus Motion One / GSAP / anime.js / @formkit/auto-animate / lottie-web), and write an interactive HTML tuner page where the user can adjust duration/delay/easing live and export a Claude-Code-ready prompt with the parameter changes. Returns the file path of the generated tuner. Use when the user wants to fine-tune existing animation parameters, NOT to review for issues.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| output | string | – | Where to write the tuner HTML. Default .motionlint/tuner/index.html. |
| settle_ms | number | – | Time to wait after load for animations to register. Default 1500. |
