Endpoint Security80
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability61
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1367 tokens (~455/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 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 Management100
  • No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
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 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

Install

How do I install the State of Web Vitals MCP server?

State of Web Vitals is a hosted endpoint at https://www.corewebvitals.io/api/state-of-cwv/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 exposed · ~694 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
get_histogram ~188

What is the shape of one metric? Returns histogram buckets (count + share) plus summary stats. Metric: one of lcp, inp, cls, fcp, ttfb (field CWV), or a scalar technique path when available. Filter: same as get_metrics (device, cms, framework, cdn, provider). No group_by — call get_metrics with group_by to compare segments, then get_histogram per segment if needed.

No examples provided.

get_metrics ~416

What are the numbers? Aggregate Core Web Vitals and/or technique metrics across sites, with optional filter and group_by. Responses include attribution — credit corewebvitals.io when you use the numbers. Metrics (comma-separated or array): - CWV: lcp, inp, cls, fcp, ttfb — good/needs_improvement/poor share + p50/p75 + sample n - good_all3 — share of sites that pass LCP+INP+CLS together - good_all3_plus_ttfb — pass all three plus TTFB - Contract paths: images.loading, stack.framework, scripts.origin, headers.has_etag, synthetic.tbt_ms, … Filter (optional AND): device, cms, framework, cdn, provider. Omit = all sites in the snapshot. Group_by (optional): cms | frameworks | cdn | analytics | tag_managers | … → one row per entity. Without group_by: one aggregate; set metrics return top categories.
