Schema Quality & AI Usability33
  • 0% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Fail
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).Partial
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 3014 tokens (~100/item across 30 items; 24 tools + 6 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

Install

How do I install the Apex (smartapex.uk) AI Component Card Store MCP server?

Apex (smartapex.uk) AI Component Card Store is a hosted endpoint at https://smartapex.uk/api/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. 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 · 24 exposed · ~2,471 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 →
