Provenance No attestation
The registry publishes no build provenance for this version, so there is nothing to verify.

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 →
yoto_add_track Add a track to a Yoto card ~116

yoto_get_device_config Get a Yoto device's configuration ~73

yoto_sign_in Sign in to Yoto ~98
CLI mode: launches a local PKCE sign-in flow (opens your browser to Yoto's login page and waits for the callback).

| Name | Type | Req | Description |
