Trust breakdown (6 categories)

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 →

Supply Chain Security86
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (94 of 98), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (94 of 98), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability82
  • 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 604 tokens (~100/item across 6 items; 5 tools + 1 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
  • Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
  • Structured output schemas are declared (40% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

    No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 17 to 20. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 5 days of observed history at the previous scan, 6 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

MCP tools — 5 exposed · ~573 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.

Tool Tokens
ask-gemini ~218

Send a prompt to Gemini CLI (defaults to gemini-3.1-pro-preview with automatic Flash fallback on quota errors). Use for code review, second opinions, analysis, and AI-to-AI collaboration. Do not override the model parameter unless the user explicitly asks. Returns both human-readable text and a structured response (provider, model, sessionId, usage) via outputSchema.

NameTypeReqDescription
modelstringDO NOT set this parameter. The tool automatically uses gemini-3.1-pro-preview and falls back to gemini-3.6-flash on quota errors. Only set this if the user explicitly requests a specific model.
promptstringyesThe question, code review request, or analysis task to send to Gemini CLI. Use @ syntax to include files (e.g., '@largefile.js explain this')
sessionIdstringOptional Gemini session ID to resume a prior conversation. Use the [Session ID: ...] value from a previous response to continue the same chat with full prior context.
NameTypeReqDescription

providerstringyes
responsestringyes

No examples provided.

ask-gemini-edit ~178

Send a code edit request to Gemini CLI and get structured OLD/NEW edit blocks back. Gemini analyzes the files and returns precise, applicable code changes. Use this when you want Gemini to suggest specific code modifications rather than just analysis.

NameTypeReqDescription
includeDirsarrayAdditional directories to include in Gemini's context. Must be relative paths (e.g., 'packages/api'). Useful for monorepos.
modelstringDO NOT set this parameter. The tool automatically uses gemini-3.1-pro-preview and falls back to gemini-3.6-flash on quota errors.
promptstringyesDescribe the code changes you want. Reference files with @ syntax (e.g., '@src/app.ts refactor the error handling'). Gemini will return structured OLD/NEW edit blocks that can be applied directly.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

fetch-chunk ~66

Retrieves cached chunks from a changeMode response. Use this to get subsequent chunks after receiving a partial changeMode response.

NameTypeReqDescription
cacheKeystringyesThe cache key provided in the initial changeMode response
chunkIndexnumberyesWhich chunk to retrieve (1-based index)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get-usage-stats ~81

Get the current MCP server's session usage stats: total LLM calls, token totals (input/output/thinking/cached), wall time, and breakdowns per provider and per model. No data leaves your machine — counts are tracked in-memory for the lifetime of the server process. Returns both human-readable markdown and a structured JSON snapshot via outputSchema.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
