## 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.

  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 63/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 518 tokens (~259/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 23/100
  - Stability observed for 7 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (2)

### `hi_statute` (~290 tokens)

Get the FULL TEXT of a section of the Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) — Hawaii state law — by citation. "707-701" is murder in the first degree; "521-44" is a landlord's security-deposit duty under the Residential Landlord-Tenant Code. Accepts natural forms: "707-701", "HRS 707-701", "§707-701". Returns the current statutory text, the official catchline, chapter context, and amendment/enactment history parsed from the Legislature's own "[L 1972, c 9, ...]" session-law bracket. Pass "year" (1999-2025) to get that year's historical archived text of the same section instead of the current one — Hawaii publishes a full year-by-year online archive. Keyless. Use for "what does HRS 707-701 say" or to check a Hawaii statute a case or lease relies on, now or as of a past year.

Input parameters:

- `citation` (string, required): Section citation, chapter-section, e.g. "707-701" (murder) or "521-44" (security deposits). Some sections carry a decimal suffix, e.g. "521-69.5".
- `year` (number): Optional: a historical year (1999-2025) to fetch that year's archived text instead of the current one.

### `hi_search` (~173 tokens)

Search the Hawaii Revised Statutes BY TOPIC or keyword rather than citation — "landlord security deposit", "concealed firearm permit", "murder". Matches against the Legislature's own official section and chapter CATCHLINES across the whole Code (not full statutory prose — Hawaii does not publish a full-text search of statute body text, verified live), e.g. "landlord" surfaces sections like "Landlord's remedies for failure by tenant to pay rent" under chapter 521 (Residential Landlord-Tenant Code). Returns matching citations and catchlines; call hi_statute with a citation for the full text. Keyless.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number): Max results to return, default 10, max 25.
- `query` (string, required): Topic or keywords, e.g. "landlord security deposit".

### Is the Hawaii Code MCP server safe to use?

Hawaii Code scores 82 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Hawaii Code MCP server expose?

Hawaii Code exposes 2 tools: hi_statute, hi_search. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 463 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Hawaii Code MCP server still maintained?

Hawaii Code is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Hawaii Code MCP server under?

Hawaii Code declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
