## 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 2026-08-03.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 32/100
  - Malware scan not yet available for this package.
  - CVE check failed: a known high-severity CVE affects pypdf 5.9.0, a direct dependency. A fixed version is available.
  - Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised native-build step with no shell scripting around it.
  - 3 of 39 dependencies flagged as unhealthy.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 45/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (Apache-2.0).
  - Actively maintained (last published 25 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **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.
- **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: 4 categories.** Categories scored 0 because our sandbox run of this package has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you.
