## 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 2026-08-22.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 0/100
  - Malware scan not yet available for this package.
  - Known CVEs could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM, so there is no dependency list to read. Publishing one would let us assess it.
  - Install-script risk not yet assessed.
  - Dependency health could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM, so there is no dependency list to read. Publishing one would let us assess it.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 19/100
  - Repository check failed: the declared repository URL returned HTTP 404.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (Apache-2.0).
  - Actively maintained (last published 13 days ago).
  - Security-disclosure policy not yet verified: we couldn't inspect the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 82/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 706 tokens (~117/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 47/100
  - Stability observed for 14 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **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.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 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.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (6)

### `project_code_files` (~123 tokens)

List tracked file paths at the current prepared revision of one or more repositories. Optional pathPrefix narrows to a directory; optional query filters file names. File locations are navigation hints; read relevant lines before citing a claim.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): maximum file paths, from 1 to 500
- `pathPrefix` (string): optional repository-relative directory prefix
- `query` (string): optional case-insensitive text contained in the file path
- `repos` (null|array): optional repository slugs (owner/repo); defaults to all configured repositories

### `project_code_read` (~107 tokens)

Read a narrow repository-relative source range from one repository, limited to 300 lines. The repository is cloned or refreshed on demand; the result includes the prepared revision and a citation.

Input parameters:

- `endLine` (integer): last line, defaults to 200 and at most 300 lines per call
- `path` (string, required): repository-relative file path
- `repo` (string, required): repository slug (owner/repo)
- `startLine` (integer): first line, defaults to 1

### `project_code_search` (~146 tokens)

Search exact text (or a regular expression) across one or more configured repositories. Repositories are cloned or refreshed on demand. Results include repository, revision, path, line, snippet, and a [owner/repo@revision:path:line] citation. Per-repository failures are reported as warnings.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): maximum matches, from 1 to 100
- `query` (string, required): literal text by default, or a regular expression when regex is true
- `regex` (boolean): interpret query as a regular expression; false uses literal search
- `repos` (null|array): optional repository slugs (owner/repo); defaults to all configured repositories

### `project_repo_list` (~34 tokens)

List the configured repository slugs (owner/repo) that this server can search. Call once to see what is available.

### `project_repo_sync` (~57 tokens)

Force-refresh one repository (or all configured repositories) in the server cache. This only updates the read-only cache; it never modifies the remote repository.

Input parameters:

- `repo` (string): optional repository slug to refresh; defaults to all configured repositories

### `project_symbol_search` (~87 tokens)

Search symbol definitions (Universal Ctags) by name fragment across one or more repositories. Repositories are cloned or refreshed on demand.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): maximum matches, from 1 to 100
- `query` (string, required): symbol name or distinctive symbol fragment
- `repos` (null|array): optional repository slugs (owner/repo); defaults to all configured repositories
