  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management90
  • Stability observed for 27 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100

  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~322 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 →

Tool Tokens
calculate_estimate ~112

Estimate the cost for a given number of input and output tokens on a specific model. Supports optional cached_tokens for prompt caching discounts.

NameTypeReqDescription
cached_tokensnumberNumber of input tokens served from cache (prompt caching). Must be <= input_tokens. These tokens are billed at the cached rate instead of the standard input rate.
input_tokensnumberyesNumber of input tokens
model_namestringyesModel name (fuzzy matched)
output_tokensnumberyesNumber of output tokens

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

compare_models ~98

Filter and compare models by provider, minimum context window, or mode. Returns top 5 most cost-effective matches.

NameTypeReqDescription
min_contextnumberMinimum context window size in tokens
modestringFilter by mode (e.g. 'chat', 'embedding', 'completion', 'image_generation')
providerstringFilter by provider (e.g. 'anthropic', 'openai', 'google', 'amazon')

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_model_details ~79

Look up pricing, context window, and capabilities for an LLM model. Uses fuzzy matching so you don't need the exact model key.

NameTypeReqDescription
model_namestringyesModel name to look up (e.g. 'claude-sonnet-4-5', 'gpt-4o', 'gemini-2.0-flash')

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

refresh_prices ~33

Force a re-fetch of pricing data from the LiteLLM registry. Use this if you suspect the cached data is stale.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.
