Browser compatibility and Baseline status for any web feature — offline, from bundled MDN data.

67 Trust /100
Trust breakdown (7 categories)

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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Endpoint Security66
  • The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 5 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
  • HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
  • The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
  • DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability68
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1269 tokens (~253/item across 5 items; 5 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 Management0
  • Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).Unverified
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
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

Unverified: 1 category

A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

Install

How do I install the io.github.cyanheads/browser-compat-mcp-server server?

io.github.cyanheads/browser-compat-mcp-server is a hosted endpoint at https://browser-compat.caseyjhand.com/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 · 5 exposed · ~1,040 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
browsercompat_check_baseline ~196

Check whether web features are safe to ship: Baseline state and the date it crossed, the browser and version that limits support, whether the feature is deprecated or discouraged, and the share of tracked global traffic that requiring it would exclude. Accepts up to 20 BCD keys or web-features ids in one call.

NameTypeReqDescription
featuresarrayyesUp to 20 entries, each a browser-compat-data key such as css.selectors.has or a web-features id such as has, 1 to 200 characters. An empty or longer entry is rejected against this schema; a whitespac…
resolvebooleanWhen true, fall back to the search index and accept its single unambiguous top hit for each entry. Off by default so a typo returns a miss you can correct.
NameTypeReqDescription
all_widely_availablebooleanTrue only when every entry resolved and reports Baseline widely. A single miss forces false. Deprecation and discouragement do not enter this answer.
attributionstringRequired attribution for the caniuse-derived usage figures in this response.
data_versionobjectVintage of each bundled dataset behind this answer.
errorobjectPresent when the call failed. Absent on success.
resultsarrayOne result per requested feature. A miss is a result, not a failure.
totalCountnumberNumber of results returned.
unresolvedNoticestringNames the entries that did not resolve and how to find the right key.

No examples provided.

browsercompat_compare_support ~261

Compute whether a set of web features clears an explicit browserslist target query. Returns a per-feature verdict, the target browser and version that fails, the share of tracked traffic the targets cover, and unchecked_targets for every resolved target browser with no compatibility data. A feature is never reported as clearing a target the server could not evaluate.

NameTypeReqDescription

unchecked_coverage_percentnumberShare of tracked global traffic the unevaluated targets cover.
unchecked_targetsarrayEvery target the server declined to claim a verdict for, with the reason.

No examples provided.

browsercompat_get_feature ~254

Get the compatibility record for one web feature: Baseline state and the date it crossed, deprecation and standards status, per-browser version added and removed with flags, vendor prefixes and partial-implementation notes, and the MDN and specification links. Accepts a BCD key such as css.selectors.has or a web-features id such as has; the response echoes which one it matched. An unresolved feature returns found: false with guidance rather than an error.

NameTypeReqDescription
featurestringyesA browser-compat-data key such as css.selectors.has, or a web-features id such as has, 1 to 200 characters. An empty or longer string is rejected against this schema; a whitespace-only string returns…
include_runtimesbooleanAdd the bun, deno, nodejs, and oculus rows to support. Leave off for browser ship decisions.
resolvebooleanWhen true, fall back to the search index and accept its single unambiguous top hit. Off by default so a typo returns a miss you can correct rather than a confident answer about the wrong feature.
NameTypeReqDescription
baselineobjectBaseline state for the resolved key, or the feature rollup when a web-features id resolved to more than one key.
baselineNotMappedstringExplains why a resolved key carries no Baseline state.
compat_keysarrayPresent when the web-features id spans more than one browser-compat-data key. Call this tool again with one of them for the per-browser fields.
data_versionobjectVintage of each bundled dataset behind this answer.
descriptionstringweb-features description, or the browser-compat-data description with tags stripped.
errorobjectPresent when the call failed. Absent on success.
foundbooleanTrue when the feature string resolved to a tracked entry.
guidancestringWhat to do next on a miss or with no compat data.
limiting_browserobjectAmong the Baseline core browsers, the one requiring the newest release. Absent until every core browser has shipped a resolvable version.
mdn_urlstringMDN reference page for the resolved key.
namestringweb-features display name for the feature.
outcomestringfound when per-feature data was returned, no_compat_data when the entry is tracked but owns no browser-compat-data keys, miss when nothing matched.
resolved_asHow the feature string was matched, or null on a miss.
runtimesExcludedstringNotes that the feature carries server-runtime or XR data that was left out.
spec_urlsarraySpecification URLs for the resolved key, always an array.
statusobjectStandards status for the resolved key. Absent for webextensions keys, which record none, and when the id spans more than one key.
supportarrayOne row per reported browser. Absent when the id spans more than one browser-compat-data key.

No examples provided.

browsercompat_list_reference ~161

Enumerate the reference vocabulary this server uses: BCD namespaces, BCD browser ids, browserslist agent ids and their BCD counterparts, Baseline states, web-features groups, and ECMAScript snapshots. Use it to build valid inputs for the other tools and to see which target browsers can be evaluated.

NameTypeReqDescription

No examples provided.

browsercompat_search_features ~168

Find web features by plain name or keyword when the canonical key is unknown, across CSS, JavaScript, HTML, Web APIs, SVG, MathML, WebAssembly, and HTTP headers. Returns ranked matches with the BCD key, the web-features id, the Baseline state, a one-line support summary, and which field matched. Feed a result key into browsercompat_get_feature for the full record.
