Trust breakdown (7 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 → 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 native-build step with no shell scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • 1 of 32 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency35
  • 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
  • License check failed: the license (MIT License) isn't a recognized OSI-approved license. See how to fix → Fail
  • Actively maintained (last published 0 days ago).Pass
  • Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability70
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1063 tokens (~118/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management87
  • Stability observed for 26 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 9 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 10 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass
Install

How do I install the io.github.malkreide/swiss-housing-mcp server?

io.github.malkreide/swiss-housing-mcp runs locally as a PyPI package, launched with uvx swiss-housing-mcp. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 9 exposed · ~661 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
address_to_egid ~63

Geocode a Swiss address to EGID/EDID and LV95 coordinates. This is the bridge that makes other data sources EGID-capable: address in → federal building identifier out.

buildings_in_bbox ~133

Aggregate buildings/dwellings inside an LV95 bounding box. Enables sub-municipal analysis, e.g. school districts: pass the bounding box of a Schulkreis to count new construction within it. LV95 (EPSG:2056): east ~2'480'000-2'840'000, north ~1'070'000-1'300'000.

construction_pipeline ~85

Buildings and dwellings in the planning/construction pipeline of a municipality. Breaks down by status: projected (GSTAT 1001), approved (1002), under construction (1003). Dwellings under construction today are households in 1-3 years — the early indicator for school-space planning.

dump_status ~55

Cache status of the cantonal GWR dumps (graceful-degradation entry point). Always returns an evaluable status — never silently empty records. If a source is unreachable, this tool tells you when data was last refreshed.
