MCP tools · 9 exposed · ~1,326 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
native_check ~205

Before building on Alpine, Linux ARM, Windows ARM, a Mac or Lambda, checks which npm dependencies contain native code and whether a prebuilt binary exists for the target platform. For those that would compile from source (needing a C/C++ toolchain and Python) or fail, gives the nearest newer version that ships a prebuilt for that platform, with that upgrade's risk.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitstring–Max breaking changes shown for each suggested fix
platformstringyesTarget platform: os-cpu[-libc], e.g. linux-x64-glibc, linux-arm64-musl, darwin-arm64, win32-arm64; or alpine, alpine-arm64, linux, linux-arm64, lambda, lambda-arm64, windows, win-arm64, mac, mac-intel
requirementsstringyesThe project's dependencies: the contents of package-lock.json (best), package.json, or one 'name@version' per line

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

node_check ~159

Before moving a project to a new Node.js version (e.g. off Node 20 to 22 or 24), checks each npm dependency's declared Node support (its engines field). For each that doesn't support the target, gives the smallest newer release that does, with that upgrade's risk. Works from a package-lock.json without installing anything.

limitstring–Max breaking changes shown for each suggested fix

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

peer_check ~178

Before upgrading a core npm package (react, typescript, eslint, vite...), checks every dependency in the project that declares it as a peer dependency: does the installed version accept the new version, and if not, the smallest release that does, with that upgrade's risk. Also checks the new version's own peer requirements against what's installed. Answers the questions behind npm's ERESOLVE errors without running npm.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

types_check ~93

For a TypeScript project: which dependencies ship their own type declarations, which need a DefinitelyTyped @types package (and the version that matches the installed library), and which installed @types packages describe a different major version than the library.

NameTypeReqDescription
requirementsstringyesThe project's dependencies, including any @types packages: the contents of package-lock.json (best), package.json, or one 'name@version' per line

upgrade_check ~199

Give it a project's dependencies: a requirements.txt or pip freeze output for Python, or a package-lock.json, package.json, or name@version lines for npm. Flags malicious packages and versions with known vulnerabilities (with the smallest safe version to move to, preferring a low-risk patch), then reports what each upgrade breaks, removes, or deprecates, ranked into remove_now / fix_now / no_fix_available / upgrade_first / safe / review / needs_care.

wheel_check ~247

For each pinned Python package, whether a prebuilt wheel exists for a target Python version and platform (Windows ARM, Alpine/musl, Linux ARM, macOS, a new Python version). Without one, pip builds from source, which usually fails without a compiler for packages with C extensions. For each that's missing, gives the nearest newer version that has a wheel, with that upgrade's risk.
