Trust breakdown (6 categories)

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 →

Supply Chain Security87
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (95 of 99), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (95 of 99), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 246 tokens (~61/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
  • Stability observed for 8 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
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

The dependency tree was only partially resolved, so these counts may be incomplete.

MCP tools — 4 exposed · ~246 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.

Tool Tokens
alloc_port ~65

Return a stable free port assigned to this git worktree, so parallel agents/worktrees don't collide on the same port (EADDRINUSE). Wire the returned port into the dev server's launch command.

NameTypeReqDescription
servicestringService name to allocate for (default: web)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

free_port ~84

Return a single TCP port that is NOT currently in use, so you can bind a server without an EADDRINUSE collision. Stateless — for a STABLE port that's remembered per worktree across restarts, use alloc_port instead.

NameTypeReqDescription
rangestringPort range to search, e.g. 8000-8099 (default 3000-3999)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

kill_port ~36

Stop whatever dev server is listening on the given local port (frees it).

NameTypeReqDescription
portintegeryesThe local port to free

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_servers ~61

List the local dev servers currently listening — port, process, git branch, owner, and an idle hint. Read-only. Use it to answer 'what's running?', 'which server is on :3001?', or 'which worktree is serving this?'.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.
