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-fda-regulations). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 3 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability58
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 706 tokens (~353/item across 2 items; 2 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 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 3 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
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.

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 →
fda_regulation ~403
Get the full text of one FDA regulation — a US Food & Drug Administration rule codified in 21 CFR — by its citation. Returns the exact regulatory wording currently in force. Answers "what does 21 CFR 211 require", "what is the FDA regulation for X", "does the FDA require X", "read 21 CFR 211.100", "the FDA good manufacturing practice rule". Forgiving citation input: "211.100", "21 CFR 211.100", "§211.100", even "211.100(a)" (paragraph stripped to the section). Covers 21 CFR part 211 current good manufacturing practice (cGMP / GMP) for finished drugs, part 210 cGMP general, part 820 quality system regulation / QMSR for medical devices, part 801 medical device labeling, part 101 food labeling / nutrition facts, part 314 new drug applications (NDA/ANDA), part 807 device establishment registration, part 111 dietary supplement cGMP, part 1308 controlled substance schedules — the whole of Title 21 (food, drugs, devices, cosmetics, biologics). This is FDA REGULATIONS (the rules/regulatory text); for FDA DATA (drug labels, adverse events, recalls) use the openfda tools. Pass a whole part (e.g. "211" or "820") to get that part's section list. Example: fda_regulation({ citation: "211.100" }) -> written procedures / process control; fda_regulation({ citation: "21 CFR 101.9" }) -> nutrition labeling. Keyless.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| citation | string | yes | FDA regulation citation. A section: "211.100", "21 CFR 211.100", "§820.35", "211.100(a)". Or a whole part: "211", "part 820" -> returns the part's section list. |

fda_search ~247
Keyword search across FDA regulations — US Food & Drug Administration rules in 21 CFR. Answers "what FDA regulations cover X", "the FDA regulation / rule about X", "find the FDA requirement for X". Great for topics: good manufacturing practice (GMP / cGMP), quality system regulation, medical device labeling, drug labeling, nutrition facts / food labeling, new drug applications, dietary supplements, cosmetics, biologics, controlled substances, current good manufacturing practice for drugs and devices. Returns matching FDA regulations with citation (21 CFR), heading, excerpt, and source URL. This searches FDA REGULATIONS (regulatory text); for FDA DATA (drug labels, adverse events, recalls) use the openfda tools. Example: fda_search({ query: "medical device labeling" }); fda_search({ query: "good manufacturing practice", limit: 15 }). Keyless.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | number | – | Max results to return, 1-20 (default 10). |
| query | string | yes | FDA-regulation topic or phrase, e.g. "medical device labeling", "good manufacturing practice", "nutrition labeling", "quality system", "new drug application". |
