MCP tools · 33 exposed · ~3,247 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 →

Common questions

What is the io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime server?

io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime. Control CesiumJS 3D globes via MCP: camera, layers, entities, animation, and interaction. This page covers its npm package (cesium-mcp-runtime).

Is the io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime server safe to use?

io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime server expose?

io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime exposes 33 tools: flyTo, setView, getView, zoomToExtent, saveViewpoint, and 28 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 3,247 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime server still maintained?

io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime server under?

io.github.gaopengbin/cesium-mcp-runtime declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
