## 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 2026-09-20.

- **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**: 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 14 days ago).
  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 66/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1417 tokens (~202/item across 7 items; 7 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**: 88/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 65% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **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.

## MCP tools (7)

### `extract_images` (~184 tokens)

Extracts all images from a document and saves them to storage as separate image files. Supports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, HTML, EPUB, and 30+ more formats with embedded images. Call this tool immediately whenever the user asks to extract images, get images, or save images from a document. Do NOT pre-check whether files exist — just pass the filename the user provided. Returns a list of saved-path messages, one per extracted image (named '<basename>_image<N>.<ext>'). On failure, the response text starts with 'Image extraction failed for' followed by the underlying exception type, message, and inner-exception chain.

Input parameters:

- `file` (object, required)
- `page` (integer|null): Page number to extract images from (1-based). Omit for all pages.
- `password` (string|null): Password for protected documents

### `extract_barcodes` (~252 tokens)

Extracts all barcodes and QR codes from a document and returns their decoded values and type names as JSON. Detects Code128, QR Code, PDF417, DataMatrix, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC, Aztec, and many more symbologies. Supports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, PNG, JPG, TIFF, and other formats with embedded or rasterized barcodes. Call this tool immediately whenever the user asks to read, scan, or extract barcodes or QR codes from a document. Do NOT pre-check whether files exist — just pass the filename the user provided. Returns a header line ('Found N barcode(s) in ...') followed by a JSON array of `{ index, value, type, page, confidence, angle }` per barcode, or a 'No barcodes found' message. On failure, the response text starts with 'Barcode extraction failed for' followed by the underlying exception type, message, and inner-exception chain.

Input parameters:

- `file` (object, required)
- `page` (integer|null): Page number to scan (1-based). Omit for all pages.
- `password` (string|null): Password for protected documents

### `get_license_status` (~135 tokens)

Returns how this MCP server is licensed, and — under metered licensing — how much has been consumed. Call this when the user asks about licensing, evaluation limitations, metered usage, remaining credit, or which product engine version is running. Returns a JSON object with `mode` ("evaluation", "licensed" or "metered"), `licensed` (true for both licensed and metered), `consumption` (null unless metered; otherwise `quantity` and `credit`, or `error` if the reading failed), and `server` / `engine` name and version. Takes no arguments and never modifies anything.

### `get_document_info` (~198 tokens)

Returns basic information about a document — file type, page count, size — as JSON, without modifying the file. Supports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, PNG, JPG, HTML, EPUB, MSG, EML, and 50+ more document formats. Call this tool whenever the user asks to get document info, check a file's details, or inspect it before extracting text / metadata / images / tables. Do NOT pre-check whether files exist — just pass the filename the user provided. Returns a JSON object with fields `fileName`, `fileType` (extension), `fileTypeName` (engine-reported format name), `pageCount`, and `size`. On failure, the response text starts with 'Document-info lookup failed for' followed by the underlying exception type, message, and inner-exception chain.

Input parameters:

- `file` (object, required)
- `password` (string|null): Password for protected documents

### `extract_text` (~183 tokens)

Extracts plain text from a document file. Supports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, TXT, HTML, CSV, EML, MSG, RTF, ODT, EPUB, and 50+ more formats. Call this tool immediately whenever the user asks to extract text, read text, or get the content of a document. Do NOT pre-check whether files exist — just pass the filename the user provided. Returns the document's plain text (truncated with a marker if it exceeds the configured budget). On failure, the response text starts with 'Text extraction failed for' followed by the underlying exception type, message, and inner-exception chain.

Input parameters:

- `file` (object, required)
- `page` (integer|null): Page number to extract from (1-based). Omit for all pages.
- `password` (string|null): Password for protected documents

### `extract_tables` (~272 tokens)

Extracts tables from a document and returns them as Markdown (default) or JSON. Supports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, HTML, and other tabular formats. Markdown tables render instantly in VS Code, GitHub, and AI chat — use this format to visually review table data right in the response. Use format='json' to get a structured array of rows for programmatic processing or further manipulation. Call this tool immediately whenever the user asks to extract, read, or view tables from a document. Do NOT pre-check whether files exist — just pass the filename the user provided. Returns either a Markdown document (multiple `### Table N (page N, R×C)` sections) or a JSON array of `{ table, page, rows, columns, data: string[][] }` objects. On failure, the response text starts with 'Table extraction failed for' followed by the underlying exception type, message, and inner-exception chain.

Input parameters:

- `file` (object, required)
- `format` (string): Output format: 'markdown' (default — renders in IDE and chat) or 'json' (structured data)
- `page` (integer|null): Page number to extract tables from (1-based). Omit for all pages.

Supports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, MP3, MP4, and 50+ more document and image formats. Call this tool immediately whenever the user asks to extract metadata or get document properties from a file. Do NOT pre-check whether files exist — just pass the filename the user provided. Returns a JSON object whose keys are metadata field names (e.g. 'Author', 'Title', 'CreatedDate') and values are the corresponding string values. On failure, the response text starts with 'Metadata extraction failed for' followed by the underlying exception type, message, and inner-exception chain.

Input parameters:

- `file` (object, required)
- `password` (string|null): Password for protected documents
