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 → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security98
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- 31 of 93 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass

- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability64
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 695 tokens (~231/item across 3 items; 3 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
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
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.
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

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 →
deepseek_fetch DeepSeek fetch page ~93
Fetch a web page through DeepSeek and return its content as Markdown. Long pages are returned in chunks: when the output says to call again with an offset, do so to read further.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| max_chars | integer | – | Characters to return (default 20000). |
| offset | integer | – | Character offset to start from, for paging long pages. |
| url | string | yes | http(s) URL to fetch. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
deepseek_research DeepSeek research ~260
Answer-oriented web research in one call: searches, keeps the best-scoring results and returns their full page content with numbered sources for citation. Prefer this over search+fetch when you need to read sources, not just find them.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| after | string | – | Only pages dated after this: YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD. |
| before | string | – | Only pages dated before this: YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD. |
| exclude_sites | array | – | Exclude results from these domains. |
| lang | array | – | Language codes, e.g. ["en", "es"]. |
| localization | string | – | Optional IP address used to localize results. |
| max_chars_per_page | integer | – | Content per page (default 6000). |
| max_pages | integer | – | Pages to return with content (default 5). |
| min_score | number | – | Minimum rerank_score (default 1.5). |
| query | string | – | Search query to use instead of the question. Required if the question exceeds 128 chars. |
| question | string | yes | The question to research, in the user's words. |
| sites | array | – | Only return results from these domains, e.g. ["github.com"]. |
No output schema declared.

deepseek_search DeepSeek web search ~342
Search the live web with DeepSeek's search engine. Returns ranked results with a model-ready summary per result (capped at 800 chars by default). rerank_score ranges 0-3; >= 1.5 is high quality. Use this to discover sources; then call deepseek_fetch on a URL for the full page, or use deepseek_research to do both in one step. The query is limited to 128 characters including filters and supports operators: "exact phrase", -term, -"phrase".
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| after | string | – | Only pages dated after this: YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD. |
| before | string | – | Only pages dated before this: YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD. |
| count | integer | – | Results to return (default 10). |
| exclude_sites | array | – | Exclude results from these domains. |
| include_content | boolean | – | Also return each page's text (truncated). Costs no extra request but uses much more context. |
| lang | array | – | Language codes, e.g. ["en", "es"]. |
| localization | string | – | Optional IP address used to localize results. |
| min_score | number | – | Drop results below this rerank_score. |
| original_question | string | – | The user's original question, in their words. Improves ranking; trimmed to 128 chars. |
| query | string | yes | Search query, max 128 chars after filters are added. |
| sites | array | – | Only return results from these domains, e.g. ["github.com"]. |
| summary_chars | integer | – | Max characters of each summary (default 800). |
