Category Maps and Location
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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security100
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency97
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to pipeworx-io/mcp-db-rail). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 4 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability65
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 861 tokens (~215/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management23
- Stability observed for 7 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

The score does not measure everything. What the score does not measure →
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.
- 4 Nov 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 17 to 20. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 5 days of observed history at the previous scan, 6 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

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 →
dbrail_arrivals ~227
Live arrivals board for a German / European station. Pass a station NAME ("München Hbf") or a stop id from dbrail_locations. Returns upcoming arrivals with line/train number, origin, scheduled and real-time arrival, delay in minutes, platform/track, and operator. Keyless, real-time where the operator publishes it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | Station name ("München Hbf") or stop id from dbrail_locations. |
| mode | string | – | Filter by transport mode. Pass "rail" for trains only (high-speed, long-distance, night, regional) — recommended at big stations, where trams/buses otherwise dominate the board. Or pass explicit MOTI… |
| results | number | – | Max arrivals to return (default 15, max 50). |
| when | string | – | ISO date/time to start the board from. Defaults to now. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
dbrail_departures ~241
Live departures board for a German / European station. Pass a station NAME ("Berlin Hbf") or a stop id from dbrail_locations. Returns upcoming departures with line/train number, destination, scheduled and real-time departure, delay in minutes, platform/track, and operator. Keyless, real-time where the operator publishes it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | Station name ("Berlin Hbf") or stop id from dbrail_locations. |
| mode | string | – | Filter by transport mode. Pass "rail" for trains only (high-speed, long-distance, night, regional) — recommended at big stations, where trams/buses otherwise dominate the board. Or pass explicit MOTI… |
| results | number | – | Max departures to return (default 15, max 50). |
| when | string | – | ISO date/time to start the board from (e.g. "2026-07-25T18:00:00Z"). Defaults to now. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
dbrail_journeys ~182
Plan a multi-leg rail / public-transport journey between two places in Europe. Pass station NAMES ("Berlin Hbf" -> "München Hbf") or stop ids. Returns route options, each with total duration, number of transfers, and every leg (mode, line, from/to with platforms, scheduled + real-time times). Keyless.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| departure | string | – | ISO date/time to depart at (e.g. "2026-07-25T18:00:00Z"). Defaults to now. |

dbrail_locations ~157
Search German / European rail stations, stops, and places by name (e.g. "Berlin Hbf", "München", "Zürich HB"). Returns matches with a stop id, coordinates, and country. Keyless. You do NOT have to call this first — dbrail_departures, dbrail_arrivals and dbrail_journeys all accept a plain station name and resolve it themselves; use this when you want to disambiguate between similarly-named stations or need coordinates.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Search term, e.g. "Berlin Hbf", "Hamburg", "Wien Hauptbahnhof". |
| results | number | – | Max results to return (default 10, max 25). |
