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 Security81
  • 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

  • Stability observed for 27 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 1 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
Install

MCP tools · 1 exposed · ~592 tokens

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
trace_bitmap_to_svg ~592

Convert a bitmap image (PNG, JPG, BMP, etc.) to an SVG vector graphic using potrace tracing. Reads a bitmap image from the filesystem, preprocesses it (handles transparency, converts to grayscale), and traces it to produce clean SVG vector paths. **Returns:** JSON object with: - `svg`: The generated SVG markup string - `outputPath`: Filesystem path where the SVG was written - `originalWidth` / `originalHeight`: Source image dimensions - `preprocessed`: Whether alpha-channel preprocessing was applied **Use cases:** - Convert a brand logo PNG to SVG for use as an icon - Trace a favicon or app icon to vector format - Convert any bitmap to scalable vector paths - Generate 50x50 SVG icons from source images (use target_width and target_height) **Notes:** - Transparent PNGs are automatically preprocessed: alpha channel is converted to a black-on-white mask before tracing - All common image formats are supported via the sharp library - Output SVG contains vector paths that can be styled with CSS - Use target_width/target_height to scale the output for icon-sized SVGs

NameTypeReqDescription
backgroundstringBackground color for the SVG. Use "transparent" for no background, or a hex color string. Default: "transparent".
colorstringFill color for the traced SVG paths as a hex color string. Example: "#FF5733" for orange, "#000000" for black. Default: "#000000".
input_pathstringyesAbsolute path to the input bitmap image file. Supported formats: PNG, JPG/JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, WebP. Example: "/tmp/logo.png"
opt_tolerancenumberCurve optimization tolerance (0-1). Higher values produce simpler curves; lower values preserve detail. Default: 0.2.
output_pathstringAbsolute path where the output SVG file will be written. If not specified, defaults to the same directory and filename as input with .svg extension. Example: "/tmp/logo.svg"
target_heightnumberTarget height for the output SVG viewBox in pixels. The traced paths will be scaled to fit. Preserves aspect ratio. Example: 50 for a 50px tall icon.
target_widthnumberTarget width for the output SVG viewBox in pixels. The traced paths will be scaled to fit. Preserves aspect ratio. Example: 50 for a 50px wide icon.
thresholdnumberBlack/white threshold for tracing (0-255). Lower values capture more detail; higher values simplify. Default: 128.
turd_sizenumberSuppress speckles of up to this many pixels. Increase to remove noise, decrease to preserve fine detail. Default: 2.
