## MCP tools (10)

### `find_page_reads` (~110 tokens)

Find the reads behind a page

Opens a page in headless Chromium and lists the JSON GET requests it makes while it loads. Use it to choose the endpoint for check_read_recovery. Only successful page fetch and XHR reads are seen; native, IPC and service-worker traffic is not.

Input parameters:

- `durationMs` (integer): How long to watch after the page loads.
- `storageState` (string): Playwright storage state file of a signed-in test account.
- `url` (string, required): Page of a development or test app.

### `check_read_recovery` (~272 tokens)

Check that a page recovers when a read fails

Loads the page healthy, then fails one GET endpoint with each fault kind and checks that the ready marker comes back: by itself (recovery "automatic") or after clicking retrySelector ("retry"). Returns an outcome per fault, why the healthy baseline failed if it did, the text the screen showed under a fault it did not recover from, and the report folder, which includes fix-brief.md and reproduce.mjs.

Input parameters:

- `endpoint` (string, required): Origin and path of the GET read to fail, as find_page_reads lists it.
- `faults` (array): Which faults to apply; all of http-error, connection-failure, invalid-json by default.
- `readySelector` (string, required): CSS selector of the one element that is visible only once that read has rendered its data. It must match exactly one element: for a list, choose its container or a single item, not a selector every i…
- `readyText` (string): Text the ready element must contain.
- `recovery` (string)
- `retrySelector` (string): Required when recovery is "retry".
- `storageState` (string)
- `timeoutMs` (integer)
- `times` (integer): How many consecutive requests each fault fails.
- `url` (string, required): Page of a development or test app.

### `start_network_faults` (~79 tokens)

Start a network fault proxy

Starts a loopback HTTPS proxy for an app's own connections (an SDK, a main process, a CLI or a test run). Start the app or tests with the returned environment; connections pass until set_network_faults arms rules. Faults apply to whole connections per host: HTTPS stays end to end.

Input parameters:

- `port` (integer)

### `set_network_faults` (~61 tokens)

Arm or remove network faults

Replaces the armed rules, or removes them all with restore: true. Windows count from this call. Set dropOpen on a rule so clients that keep connections open have to reconnect.

Input parameters:

- `restore` (boolean)
- `rules` (array)

### `network_fault_summary` (~53 tokens)

Show what the network faults did

Reports how many connections went through the proxy and, for the armed rules, how many each matched and faulted. A rule that faulted nothing means the app did not use the proxy or the host name is wrong.

### `stop_network_faults` (~23 tokens)

Stop the network fault proxy

Removes every fault, closes the proxy and returns its final summary.

### `find_suspects` (~176 tokens)

Find failure handling that can lose data

Reads JavaScript and TypeScript sources, without running them, for two patterns: UNKNOWN_AS_EMPTY (a failed or unexpected read becomes an empty collection, so "unknown" looks like "none") and FAILURE_ONLY_LOGGED (a read stores its data when it succeeds, but its failure is only logged). Each suspect names the read to fail and the check that proves or dismisses it. Use changedSince "main" to scan only what a branch changed. Needs TypeScript in the project.

Input parameters:

- `changedSince` (string): Git reference, such as main: scan only the files changed since it, uncommitted and untracked ones included.
- `includeTests` (boolean): Scan test files too.
- `paths` (array): Files and directories to scan, relative to the working directory. Default: all of it.

### `compare_reports` (~184 tokens)

Compare reports from before and after a change

Compares reports of the same check from before and after a change, such as main and a branch, and returns a verdict (IMPROVED, PARTLY_IMPROVED, REGRESSED, MIXED, UNCHANGED, INCONCLUSIVE or NOT_COMPARABLE), what happened to each problem, and a Markdown block for a pull request. A problem counts as gone only when a complete run after the change checked it, so a run that stopped early is never a fix. Give several reports per side for repeated runs.

Input parameters:

- `after` (array, required): Reports of the same check from after the change.
- `afterLabel` (string): Name for the after side, such as the branch.
- `before` (array, required): Reports from before the change: report.json files or their folders.
- `beforeLabel` (string): Name for the before side, such as main.

### `verify_change` (~150 tokens)

Verify a code change with before and after evidence

Call with baseline true before changing the code, and without it before saying the change is done. The plan file lists the checks that prove the change. Verify reruns them, compares the runs with the baseline, and scans the lines changed since the plan base for suspects. VERIFIED needs every check improved or clean with complete runs on both sides, and no suspect on a changed line; otherwise the reasons say what to resolve. Do not call a change done while it is NOT_VERIFIED.

Input parameters:

- `baseline` (boolean): Record the runs from before the change instead of verifying it.
- `plan` (string): The plan file, relative to the working directory. Default: .recovery-probe/verify.json.

### `run_recovery_probe` (~145 tokens)

Run a Recovery Probe command

Runs a Recovery Probe command that has no dedicated tool, such as check and discover for an Electron app or an attached browser, action, observe (with --steps, --network or --files), refresh, reads, windows, android --list or doctor (setup checks), and returns its exit code and output. Commands: check, discover, action, reads, windows, observe, refresh, android, doctor. Pass --json where the command supports it. See the package docs for each command's configuration.

Input parameters:

- `args` (array, required): Command and arguments, for example ["observe", "--config", "observe.json", "--json"].
- `timeoutMs` (integer)

## Common questions

### What is the io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe MCP server?

io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe. Fail reads in web and Electron test apps, inspect recovery, and compare before/after evidence. This page covers its npm package (recovery-probe).

### Is the io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe MCP server safe to use?

io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe scores 70 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe MCP server expose?

io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe exposes 10 tools: find_page_reads, check_read_recovery, start_network_faults, set_network_faults, network_fault_summary, and 5 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,253 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe MCP server still maintained?

io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe MCP server under?

io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on io.github.BojanKovachki/recovery-probe, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
