## 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.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 100/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 97/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to pipeworx-io/mcp-mondo).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 58/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 415 tokens (~415/item across 1 items; 1 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 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 2 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 (1)

### `mondo_resolve_condition` (~364 tokens)

Resolve free-text condition/disease strings — e.g. a clinical trial registry's "conditions" field ("Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung"), or a drug label's Indications and Usage wording — onto the Mondo Disease Ontology (MONDO), via EBI OLS4 full-text search plus MyDisease.info cross-references. Accepts a batch (1-25) of condition strings. For each, returns the original wording verbatim, the best MONDO id + label, and a match_quality you can trust: "exact-label" (identical to the Mondo term's primary label), "exact-synonym" (identical to a listed exact synonym), "broader"/"narrower" (the string exactly names a parent or child term reached via the Mondo hierarchy, not the top full-text hit itself), or "fuzzy" (closest full-text match, not a confirmed exact term — treat with caution). Also carries xrefs (OMIM, Orphanet, DOID, UMLS, MeSH) for the matched id. A string with no plausible Mondo term returns match_quality "no-match" with the queries tried and the nearest candidates found, never a bare empty result. Set expand:true to also get the resolved term's descendant MONDO ids, for building a subtype-inclusive filter (e.g. "any subtype of non-small cell lung carcinoma").

Input parameters:

- `conditions` (array, required): 1-25 free-text condition/disease strings, e.g. ["Non-small Cell Lung Cancer", "type 2 diabetes mellitus"].
- `expand` (boolean): When true, also return the resolved term's descendant MONDO ids (all subtypes) for each result. Default false.

## Common questions

### What is the Mondo MCP server?

Mondo is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/mondo. Mondo, condition-string resolver onto the Mondo Disease Ontology. This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-mondo).

### Is the Mondo MCP server safe to use?

Mondo scores 81 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 Mondo MCP server expose?

Mondo exposes 1 tool: mondo_resolve_condition. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 364 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Mondo MCP server still maintained?

Mondo 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 Mondo MCP server under?

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

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Mondo MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Mondo, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
