## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 71/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 839 tokens (~14/item across 56 items; 3 tools + 53 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 67/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 0% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## Install

### How do I install the DarkKnight Cave Motion Library MCP server?

DarkKnight Cave Motion Library is a hosted endpoint at https://cave-motion.darkknightcave.workers.dev/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.

## MCP tools (3)

### `search_motion` (~85 tokens)

Find motion recipes by effect, use case, category, or stack. Returns compact matches; select an ID and call prepare_motion. No generation or network fetches.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string)
- `includeReferences` (boolean)
- `limit` (integer)
- `query` (string)
- `stack` (string)
- `verifiedOnly` (boolean)

### `get_motion` (~42 tokens)

Read a recipe prompt, dependencies, customization parameters, verification, source, and license. Source-only references return a link and no prompt.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)

### `prepare_motion` (~65 tokens)

Prepare a motion prompt for the user coding agent using a recipe ID and project brief. Deterministic text preparation; does not render, call an LLM, or spend money.

Input parameters:

- `brief` (string, required)
- `customization` (object)
- `id` (string, required)
