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-la-metro). View diagnostics → Pass
  • Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).Pass
  • Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability73
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 578 tokens (~144/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

MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~524 tokens

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 →

Tool Tokens
lametro_route_stops ~152

Every stop served by one LA Metro route, in running order, with stop id, name, direction and service day type. AUTHORITATIVE for "which stops does route N serve" and for turning a route into stop ids you can look up with lametro_stop.

NameTypeReqDescription
agencystring–'LACMTA' (bus, default) or 'LACMTA_Rail'.
direction_idnumber–Optional: keep only direction 0 or 1.
route_codestringyesRoute code from lametro_routes — a number for bus (e.g. "10", "720"), or a line name for rail (e.g. "Metro A-Line").

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

lametro_routes ~151

Every LA Metro bus or rail route, with its route code, short and long name, direction description and map colour. AUTHORITATIVE for "what routes does LA Metro run" — sourced from LACMTA's own API, not a third-party scrape. Use the returned route_code as input to lametro_route_stops.

NameTypeReqDescription
agencystring–'LACMTA' for bus (default, ~124 routes) or 'LACMTA_Rail' for the rail and busway lines (A/B/C/D/E/K, ~6).
searchstring–Optional case-insensitive filter over route name and description (e.g. "Wilshire", "Rapid").

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

lametro_service_cancellations ~125

Trips LA Metro has canceled on the current service day, counted per route. This is LIVE operational data and the one real-time signal LACMTA publishes publicly — AUTHORITATIVE for "is LA Metro dropping trips on my line today", which no schedule or GTFS feed can answer. Sorted worst-affected first.

NameTypeReqDescription
min_cancelednumber–Optional: only report routes with at least this many canceled trips.
route_codestring–Optional: report only this route code (e.g. "251"). Omit for every affected route.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

lametro_stop ~96

One LA Metro stop by stop id — coordinates, name, and the accessibility and zone attributes LACMTA publishes for it. Returns GeoJSON properties flattened for reading.

NameTypeReqDescription
agencystring–'LACMTA' (bus, default) or 'LACMTA_Rail'.
stop_idstringyesNumeric stop id, as returned by lametro_route_stops (e.g. "3202").

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.
