Category Security
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 Security50
- Malware scan not yet available for this package.Unverified
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
- 0 of 28 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Pass
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
- Actively maintained (last published 145 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability85
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 494 tokens (~98/item across 5 items; 3 tools + 2 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management80
- Stability observed for 24 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage71
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.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 5 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

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 →
ask_woody ~191
Ask Woody any firearms question and get an expert answer with citations. Covers: builds, maintenance, legal/regulatory, ballistics, product specs, compatibility, NFA rules, state law, suppressor setups, and more. Args: question: The firearms question (max 2000 characters). state: US state code for jurisdiction-specific legal answers (e.g. "TX", "CA"). Leave empty for general questions. user_tier: User tier — "free", "operator", "patriot", or "armorer". Affects answer depth and model selection. Returns: Woody's expert answer. If a legal_disclaimer is present, surface it to the user — it means the answer touches on legal or regulatory content.

check_woody_status ~56
Check Woody's current capabilities, KB version, and API status. Use this to verify the connection is working or to see what Woody supports. Returns: Woody's name, version, available tools, and KB stats.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

search_knowledge_base ~137
Search Woody's verified firearms knowledge base directly. Pure vector retrieval — no AI inference, no extra token cost. Returns raw document chunks with relevance scores. Good for fact-checking, looking up specific specs, or finding source material before asking a follow-up question with ask_woody. Args: query: Search query (e.g. "Geissele SSA-E trigger pull weight"). top_k: Number of results to return (1-10, default 3). Returns: Matching knowledge base chunks with relevance scores and metadata.

What is the io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp server?
io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp. Woody, the AI firearms expert. Verified specs, legal lookups, and knowledge base. This page covers its PyPI package (woody-mcp).
Is the io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp server safe to use?
io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp scores 66 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. 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.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp server expose?
io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp exposes 3 tools: ask_woody, search_knowledge_base, check_woody_status. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 384 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp server still maintained?
io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 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.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp server under?
io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
What did VerifyMCP test on the io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp server?
VerifyMCP ran 15 checks on io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp, covering Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health, Source repository and 11 more. One item could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about io.github.Gunsmith-Academy/woody-mcp: Malware scan. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to a PyPI package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
