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 →
Tools for package channels are captured by running the package in an isolated sandbox. The most recent sandbox run could not capture a tool list from this package.

What did VerifyMCP test on the LinkedIn Ads MCP Server server?
VerifyMCP ran 9 checks on LinkedIn Ads MCP Server, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 5 more. 5 items could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about LinkedIn Ads MCP Server: Schema quality, Stability, Tool coverage, Tool safety and 1 more. 5 categories score 0 for that reason, because we only credit what we can confirm. 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.
