- 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 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 9 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
Unverified: 1 category
A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

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 →
canon_corpus_stats ~143
CanonCannon corpus size and the canon bar CURRENTLY in force — entry, episode, idea and person counts, the tracked-podcast count, and the independent-podcast threshold an idea must clear. Call this to state the standard you are quoting: the bar is ceil(5% of tracked podcasts), so it rises as the corpus grows. Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_corpus_stats({}).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
canon_episode_get ~134
One podcast episode from CanonCannon with everything extracted from it — the ideas it raised, its guests, and the books mentioned. Get the slug from canon_episode_search. Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_episode_get({ slug: "pa-392-sleep-apnea" }).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |
| slug | string | yes | CanonCannon episode slug, from canon_episode_search. |

canon_episode_search ~216
Search the CanonCannon episode corpus — 10,000+ podcast episodes with the ideas, guests and books extracted from each. Filter by show, by publication date, or by free text. Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_episode_search({ query: "sleep apnea", since: "2026-01-01" }).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |
| cursor | string | – | Keyset cursor from a previous call's next_cursor. |
| limit | number | – | Episodes per page, 1-100. Default 25. |
| podcast | string | – | CanonCannon podcast slug, from canon_podcast_list. |
| query | string | – | Free-text search over episode titles and extracted content. |
| since | string | – | Only episodes published on or after this date, YYYY-MM-DD. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
canon_get ~157
The full CanonCannon entry for one idea — the claim, the evidence behind it, the nuance and gaps, related entries and books — alongside its measurement (independent podcast count, independent speaker count, the bar in force, and when it was last verified). Get the slug from canon_search. Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_get({ slug: "circadian-rhythm-health-foundation" }).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |

canon_person_get ~158
What one person has actually said across podcasts, per CanonCannon — their appearances by show and the ideas attributed to them, drawn from 3,800+ people in the corpus. Answers "does this person keep making this claim, and where" rather than "who is this person". Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_person_get({ slug: "peter-attia" }).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |
| slug | string | yes | CanonCannon person slug, from canon_search or canon_episode_get. |

| slug | string | yes | CanonCannon podcast slug, from canon_podcast_list. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
canon_podcast_list ~151
Every podcast CanonCannon tracks, with its episode count — the roster that forms the denominator of the canon bar (an idea needs ceil(5%) of these shows to clear it). Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_podcast_list({ limit: 100 }).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |
| cursor | string | – | Keyset cursor from a previous call's next_cursor. |
| limit | number | – | Podcasts per page, 1-100. Default 50. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
canon_search ~305
Search CanonCannon for ideas that recur across podcasts — claims extracted from 10,000+ episodes of 162 tracked shows, each with the MEASUREMENT behind its status: how many independent podcasts and speakers repeat it (excluding whoever originated it) and the bar in force. Use this to tell real cross-show consensus from one author on a book tour. Requires a CanonCannon API key via _apiKey. Example: canon_search({ query: "longevity" }) — `q` is matched as a PHRASE upstream, so prefer one or two words ("zone 2", not "zone 2 training").
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | – | CanonCannon API key (cc_live_...). Every /api/v1 endpoint refuses without it. Keys are issued by CanonCannon — https://canoncannon.com |
| cursor | string | – | Keyset cursor from a previous call's next_cursor. Not an offset. |
| label | string | – | Filter to one label, e.g. "Canon", "Curious", "Novel", or an editorial label. |
| limit | number | – | Entries per page, 1-100. Default 25. |
| query | string | – | Free-text search over canon titles, claims and summaries, e.g. "creatine cognition". |
| tier | string | – | "canon" = cleared the independent-spread bar; "observed" = extracted but not cleared. Omitting this returns both. |
