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 (151 of 152), 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 (151 of 152), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency19
Schema Quality & AI Usability66
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 837 tokens (~64/item across 13 items; 13 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 Coverage98
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 94% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
