## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-08-03.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 86/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (94 of 98), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (94 of 98), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (5)

### `motion_catalog` (~52 tokens)

MotionSpec catalog & authoring rules

Returns the catalog of verified motion primitives (names, purpose, parameter schemas, defaults) plus the authoring rules for writing a MotionSpec. Call this FIRST, then write the spec yourself and pass it to motion_compile.

### `motion_validate` (~59 tokens)

Validate a MotionSpec (trust boundary)

Checks a MotionSpec against the schema, the primitive allow-list, parameter bounds and injection rules. Fail-closed: returns ok=false with precise errors. Use to pre-check a spec before compiling.

Input parameters:

- `spec` (object, required): The MotionSpec JSON object

### `motion_compile` (~99 tokens)

Compile a MotionSpec to GSAP/CSS

Validates (fail-closed) and deterministically compiles a MotionSpec into production-ready vanilla-GSAP JavaScript and CSS, with enforced prefers-reduced-motion fallbacks and a performance-budget report. Same spec always yields identical code. Returns {ok, js, css, report} or {ok:false, errors}.

Input parameters:

- `spec` (object, required): The MotionSpec JSON object
- `specName` (string): Optional name used in the artifact header

### `motion_audit` (~153 tokens)

Audit a live URL for motion accessibility (WCAG 2.2.2 / 2.3.3)

Static motion-a11y checker: fetches a URL's HTML + linked stylesheets and scans the CSS for (1) animation/transition without a prefers-reduced-motion guard, (2) animated non-transform/opacity properties, (3) infinite animations with no pause path, (4) <marquee>/autoplay >5s. Runtime motion (WAAPI/GSAP/JS) is disclosed as 'not audited (V2)'. Returns {ok, score, findings, summary, badge, disclosures, markdown}; a clean site earns the badge 'reduced-motion-safe'. Does network I/O (openWorldHint).

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): The page URL to audit (http/https).

### `motion_stats` (~32 tokens)

MotionSpec usage telemetry

Summary of routing/compile telemetry (counts per outcome). Escalation clusters indicate which new primitive the catalog needs next.
