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
  • 2 of 30 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency6
Schema Quality & AI Usability81
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 990 tokens (~90/item across 11 items; 11 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • 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 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 Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 11 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 11 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

How do I install the io.github.mgaruccio/openapi-navigator MCP server?

io.github.mgaruccio/openapi-navigator runs locally as a PyPI package, launched with uvx openapi-navigator. 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 · 11 exposed · ~990 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 →

What tools does the io.github.mgaruccio/openapi-navigator MCP server expose?

io.github.mgaruccio/openapi-navigator exposes 11 tools: load_spec, load_spec_from_url, unload_spec, list_loaded_specs, get_endpoint, and 6 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 990 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.mgaruccio/openapi-navigator MCP server still maintained?

io.github.mgaruccio/openapi-navigator is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 21 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
