MCP tools — 3 exposed · ~373 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.

Tool Tokens
redact ~218

Replace patient identifiers and PII in text with labelled tokens ([NHS_NUMBER_1], [PATIENT_NAME_1], ...) so it can be safely shared or processed. Deterministic patterns plus keyword-anchored names. Returns the redacted text, a report of what was replaced, and a token_map (token -> original) for later re-identification. The token_map is the key that reverses the redaction — handle it with care.

NameTypeReqDescription
categoriesarrayWhich pattern sets to apply. Defaults to clinical + general. 'clinical' = NHS/NI/DOB/MRN/postcode/SSN/ZIP/email/phone/names; 'general' = URLs, IPs, payment cards, IBANs, account numbers, vehicle regs…
textstringyesThe text to redact.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

reinstate ~90

Reverse a redaction: replace tokens with their original values using a token map from an earlier redact call. Use this to put real data back into output generated from redacted text.

NameTypeReqDescription
textstringyesText containing Redacta tokens to restore.
token_mapobjectyesToken map, e.g. {"[NHS_NUMBER_1]": "943 476 5919"}.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

self_check ~65

Scan already-redacted text for anything that still looks like an identifier (long numbers, emails, postcodes, URLs). A second pair of eyes, not a guarantee. Returns a list of possible leftovers to review.

NameTypeReqDescription
textstringyesRedacted text to re-scan.
