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 Security49
  • 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
  • 6 of 36 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
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 156 days ago).Pass
  • Security-disclosure policy not yet verified: we couldn't inspect the source repository.Unverified
Schema Quality & AI Usability76
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1479 tokens (~134/item across 11 items; 11 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 Management83
  • Stability observed for 25 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 (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety75
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "delete_solution" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail

MCP tools · 11 exposed · ~1,450 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
add_edge_case ~119

Record a context where a cached solution didn't work as-is. Call this when search_similar returned a match but it needed modification to work in the current project. The edge case is appended to the entry so future suggestions include the caveat.

NameTypeReqDescription
edge_casestringyesDescribe exactly why the solution didn't work in this context and what had to be done differently. Be specific: include versions, OS, config values, or environment details that matter.
entry_idstringyesThe id returned by save_solution or search_similar.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

confirm_solution ~142

Auto-save a confirmed solution using context from the last search_similar call. Call this after solving a problem instead of save_solution — you only need to provide the solution text. Problem description, category, tags, and language are taken automatically from the last search_similar call. If save_solution was already called manually this session, this is a no-op (no duplicate will be created).

NameTypeReqDescription
projectstringRepository or workspace name this was solved in.
solutionstringyesThe solution that worked. Include code, commands, or steps. Problem metadata (category, tags, language) are filled in automatically from the last search_similar call.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

correct_solution ~143

Fix a specific piece of text in an already-saved solution. Call this when the user corrects a name, term, or detail that was saved incorrectly — for example 'it's not called Paperless-NGX, it's Papertagging'. Replaces all occurrences of `find` with `replace` in the solution text. Use enrich_solution to add new context. Use correct_solution to fix wrong text.

NameTypeReqDescription
entry_idstringyesThe id returned by save_solution, confirm_solution, or search_similar.
findstringyesThe exact text to find in the saved solution.
replacestringyesThe text to replace it with.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

delete_solution ~65

Permanently delete a saved entry. Use this to remove entries that were saved incorrectly, contain wrong information that can't be fixed with correct_solution, or are no longer relevant. This cannot be undone.

NameTypeReqDescription
entry_idstringyesThe id of the entry to delete.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

enrich_solution ~165

Append new context to an already-saved solution. Call this when a conversation reveals additional details AFTER a solution was already saved — for example, a follow-up clarification that makes the solution more reusable across projects. This is NOT for failures (use add_edge_case for those). This is for enrichment: new facts, patterns, or context that improve the answer.

NameTypeReqDescription
contextstringyesNew information that refines or extends the saved solution. Write as a reusable insight: state the general pattern first, then give specific details. E.g.: 'Port 4181 is used when 4180 is already tak…
entry_idstringyesThe id returned by save_solution, confirm_solution, or search_similar.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

list_recent ~66

List the most recently saved memory entries. Use this to audit what has been saved — for example, to find a recently saved entry whose id is not in context. Results are ordered newest-first.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitintegerNumber of recent entries to return. Default 10.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

rebuild_index ~78

Rebuild the vector search index for faster similarity search. LanceDB falls back to brute-force scan when the table has fewer than 256 rows. Once you have 256+ entries, call this once to build an ANN index — subsequent searches will be significantly faster. Safe to call at any time; existing data is not modified.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

save_solution ~239

Save a problem/solution pair to the cross-project memory. Call this after successfully solving a problem so future sessions — in any project — can find and reuse the solution. Returns the entry ID which can be passed to add_edge_case later.

NameTypeReqDescription
categorystringyesProblem domain. One of: ci_cd, containers, infrastructure, cloud, networking, observability, auth_security, data_pipeline, ml_training, model_serving, experiment_tracking, llm_rag, llm_api, vector_db…
languagestringProgramming language, e.g. 'python'.
problemstringyesClear description of the problem that was solved.
projectstringRepository or workspace name this was solved in.
solutionstringyesThe solution, including code snippets, commands, or steps. Be specific — this will be reused verbatim in future projects.
tagsKeywords for filtering: library names, tools, error types. E.g. ['airflow', 'dag', 'python', 'skip'].
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

search_by_project ~134

List saved entries for a specific project. Use this at the start of a new conversation when you need to find a project-specific entry to correct or enrich but no entry_id is in context. Returns entry ids, problems, and solutions so you can pick the right one and pass its id to correct_solution or enrich_solution.

NameTypeReqDescription
limitintegerMaximum number of entries to return. Default 20.
projectstringyesRepository or workspace name to look up.
querystringOptional keyword to filter results — searches problem and solution text. Leave empty to list all entries for the project.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

search_similar ~249

Search the cross-project memory for solutions similar to the current problem. Call this FIRST before reasoning about a problem from scratch. If similarity ≥ threshold a cached solution is returned — check edge_cases to see if any known limitations apply to the current context. If no match is found, solve normally and then call confirm_solution.

NameTypeReqDescription
categorystringProblem domain. One of: ci_cd, containers, infrastructure, cloud, networking, observability, auth_security, data_pipeline, ml_training, model_serving, experiment_tracking, llm_rag, llm_api, vector_db…
languagestringProgramming language if relevant, e.g. 'python', 'typescript'.
problemstringyesDescribe the problem you are trying to solve.
tagsOptional keywords to narrow the search — library names, framework, error type, tool name. E.g. ['kubernetes','oom','python'].
thresholdMinimum similarity (0–1). Defaults to similarity_threshold in config.toml (default 0.85).
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

stats ~50

Return database statistics: total entries, breakdown by category, and date range. Useful for understanding the size and composition of the memory store, and for deciding when to call rebuild_index (threshold: 256+ entries).

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.
