## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 0/100
  - No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package.
  - Known CVEs could not be checked: we could not reach the registry to check. This is a gap on our side.
  - Install-script risk not yet assessed.
  - Dependency health could not be checked: we could not reach the registry to check. This is a gap on our side.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 3/100
  - Repository check failed: the declared repository URL redirects; it must resolve directly.
  - Build provenance not yet verified.
  - License not yet determined.
  - Maintenance history not yet determined.
  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema quality not yet verified: our sandbox run of this package did not complete, so we have no schema to assess.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: our sandbox run of this package did not complete, so we have no schema to compare.
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: our sandbox run of this package did not complete, so we have no tool definitions to assess.
- **Tool Safety**: 0/100
  - Tool safety not yet verified: our sandbox run of this package did not complete, so we have no tool text to scan.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Protocol version not yet verified: our sandbox run of this package did not complete, so we never saw its MCP handshake.

**Unverified: 6 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.
