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-rijksmuseum). View diagnostics → Pass
  • Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 0 days ago).Pass
  • Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability63
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 712 tokens (~237/item across 3 items; 3 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 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 4 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

MCP tools · 3 exposed · ~657 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
rijks_object ~156

One Rijksmuseum object in full: title, maker, date, object type, materials, place, depicted subjects, the museum's own curatorial description, object number, rights statement and image URL. Accepts the numeric object id, its id.rijksmuseum.nl URI, or a museum object number such as "SK-C-5" (resolved for you). Keyless. Example: rijks_object({ id: "200107928" }) → The Night Watch.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstring–Numeric object id ("200107928"), its id.rijksmuseum.nl URI, or an object number ("SK-C-5").
object_numberstring–Alias for `id` when you hold a museum object number.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

rijks_object_image ~154

Image URLs for one Rijksmuseum object: the IIIF Image API 3 service, full-resolution pixel dimensions, a full-size JPEG, a scaled JPEG at a width you choose, a thumbnail, and the object's rights statement (most of the collection is public domain). Says plainly when an object has no published image rather than returning a broken link. Keyless. Example: rijks_object_image({ id: "200107928", width: 1200 }).

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesNumeric object id, e.g. "200107928", or its id.rijksmuseum.nl URI.
widthnumber–Pixel width for image_scaled_url, 100-4000. Default 1000.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

rijks_search ~347

Search the Rijksmuseum's ~800,000-object collection — Dutch Golden Age paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, Delftware, Asian art — by title, maker, object type, material, technique or object number, and get back real records: title, maker, date, materials, curatorial description, rights and a IIIF image URL. AUTHORITATIVE for what the Dutch national museum holds and how it catalogues it. Keyless. There is no free-text `q`: filters are field-scoped, and titles are catalogued in Dutch. Example: rijks_search({ creator: "Rembrandt", type: "painting", limit: 5 }).

NameTypeReqDescription
creatorstring–Maker name, e.g. "Rembrandt van Rijn" or "Vermeer".
imageAvailableboolean–Only objects that have a published image.
limitnumber–How many hits to hydrate into full records, 1-25. Default 10. Each costs one upstream fetch.
materialstring–Material, e.g. "canvas", "paper", "oil paint".
objectNumberstring–Exact museum object number, e.g. "SK-C-5".
page_tokenstring–next_page_token from a previous call, to continue through the result set.
techniquestring–Technique, e.g. "etching", "engraving".
titlestring–Words in the object title, as catalogued (Dutch), e.g. "Nachtwacht".
typestring–Object type, e.g. "painting", "print", "drawing", "photograph".

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.
