## MCP tools (4)

### `validate_spintax` (~178 tokens)

Validate a spintax template

Static validation: returns diagnostics with severity, stable code, message and 1-based line/column. No "error"-severity diagnostic means the template is structurally sound — read the warnings before rendering, because some of them (plural.locale-missing) mean a block will not resolve. Pass knownVariables for names you will supply at render time to silence their variable.undefined warnings.

Input parameters:

- `knownVariables` (array): Variable names the caller will supply at render time (case-insensitive).
- `locale` (string): Locale for {plural …} arity, e.g. "en" (2-form) or "ru" (3-form: ru/uk/be/sr/hr/bs). Omit for the 2-form default.
- `template` (string, required): Spintax template source. #include is disabled on this server.

Output parameters:

- `diagnostics` (array)
- `errorCount` (integer)
- `valid` (boolean): True when no error-severity diagnostics.
- `warningCount` (integer)

### `render_spintax` (~199 tokens)

Render spintax variants

Renders up to 50 variants. With a seed the output is deterministic (variant i uses seed "<seed>#<i>"); without one it is random. The engine is lenient: structural mistakes never throw, they surface in the output — run validate_spintax first.

Input parameters:

- `context` (object): Variable map, e.g. {"CITY": "Prague"}. Overrides #set/#def definitions.
- `count` (integer): Number of variants (1–50).
- `locale` (string): Locale for {plural …} arity, e.g. "en" (2-form) or "ru" (3-form: ru/uk/be/sr/hr/bs). Omit for the 2-form default.
- `seed` (string|number): Deterministic RNG seed; omit for random output.
- `template` (string, required): Spintax template source. #include is disabled on this server.

Output parameters:

- `variants` (array)

### `analyze_spintax` (~151 tokens)

Analyze a spintax template

Reports what the template needs and contains: refs (variables referenced), sets (#set macros, re-picked per reference), defs (#def, rolled once per render), includes, diagnostics, and best-effort construct counts. Answers "what variables must I supply" — it is NOT a variant-cardinality counter.

Input parameters:

- `knownVariables` (array)
- `locale` (string): Locale for {plural …} arity, e.g. "en" (2-form) or "ru" (3-form: ru/uk/be/sr/hr/bs). Omit for the 2-form default.
- `template` (string, required): Spintax template source. #include is disabled on this server.

Output parameters:

- `constructs` (object)
- `defs` (array)
- `diagnostics` (array)
- `includes` (array)
- `refs` (array)
- `sets` (array)

### `spintax_authoring_guide` (~175 tokens)

How to write a spintax template

Read this BEFORE writing or editing a spintax template — it is the canonical authoring guide the whole spintax toolchain is written against, not a tutorial. Pass the locale you will author in: for ru/uk/be and sr/hr/bs it carries the agreement and case rules that decide whether the variants read as human writing, which is the hard part and the part a valid template can still get wrong. Returns text to read, not a template.

Input parameters:

- `locale` (string): Language you will author in, e.g. "en" or "ru". Selects the grammar rules and the worked examples. Omit for the language-neutral rules only.
- `variationLevel` (string): How much markup to use. Omit to decide for yourself — the guide then states no level.

Output parameters:

- `locale` (string)
- `promptVersion` (string): Version of the rules TEXT (@spintax/authoring-prompt PROMPT_VERSION). Moves when the wording changes in a way that can change what a model writes.
- `rules` (string): The authoring rules, as text to read.

### Is the spintax.net MCP server server safe to use?

spintax.net MCP server scores 88 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 21 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the spintax.net MCP server server expose?

spintax.net MCP server exposes 4 tools: validate_spintax, render_spintax, analyze_spintax, spintax_authoring_guide. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 703 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the spintax.net MCP server server still maintained?

spintax.net MCP server 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.

### What licence is the spintax.net MCP server server under?

spintax.net MCP server declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
