## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-08-17.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 100/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - 0 of 3 dependencies flagged as unhealthy.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 48/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).
  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 81/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 303 tokens (~151/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

**Unverified: 1 category.** A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

## MCP tools (2)

### `compute_status` (~72 tokens)

Check Tailscale Compute

Check the configured Tailscale compute node and report its operating system, hardware, remote shell, and accelerator inventory. Use this before the first remote run or after a connection failure.

Input parameters:

- `workspacePath` (string): The absolute local project path. Omit it when the MCP host starts this server in the project directory.

### `compute_run` (~231 tokens)

Run on Tailscale Compute

Sync the local project and run one non-interactive command on the configured Tailscale compute node. Use it for builds, tests, benchmarks, and other costly work. Keep file edits local. The command has the full permissions of the remote SSH user.

Input parameters:

- `arguments` (array): The exact arguments for the remote program.
- `environment` (object): Environment variables for this command only.
- `program` (string, required): The executable name or path. For shell syntax, use a shell available on the remote node with arguments such as ['-lc', 'your command'].
- `standardInput` (string): Optional UTF-8 input for the remote program.
- `syncMode` (string): Use incremental for normal runs, clean to replace the remote workspace, or none to reuse the last remote snapshot.
- `timeoutSeconds` (integer): The maximum time for each sync or command process.
- `workingDirectory` (string): A POSIX path relative to the remote workspace.
- `workspacePath` (string): The absolute local project path. Omit it when the MCP host starts this server in the project directory.
