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 Security94
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- Declares code that runs automatically (postinstall) and that we could not recognise. It may be perfectly ordinary, but we have not established what it does. View diagnostics → Partial
- 0 of 6 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency97
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to iwiels/codebase-synapse). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 93 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability68
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 2213 tokens (~42/item across 52 items; 52 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage68
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 3% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety75
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- 0 of 3 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "delete_project" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
- An AI judge read all 52 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities40
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-03-26; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail

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 →
suggest_tests ~73
Identifies functions and methods that most need test coverage. Ranks candidates by: (1) high cyclomatic complexity, (2) high PageRank authority (many dependents), (3) absence of test_of edges. Returns prioritized list with rationale.

Is the codebase-synapse MCP server safe to use?
codebase-synapse scores 85 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. Its build provenance is signed and verified. 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 codebase-synapse MCP server expose?
codebase-synapse exposes 52 tools: get_stats, git_archaeology, get_recent_semantic_changes, prepare_task_context, find_dead_code, and 47 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,213 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the codebase-synapse MCP server still maintained?
codebase-synapse 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 codebase-synapse MCP server under?
codebase-synapse declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
