Category Maps and Location
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-soilgrids). 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 Usability70
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 485 tokens (~161/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

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 →
list_soil_properties ~50
List the soil properties available from ISRIC SoilGrids with their names and available depth intervals. Use this to discover valid property codes for soil_properties. Keyless; may take several seconds to respond.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
soil_classification ~98
Get the World Reference Base (WRB) soil classification at a coordinate from ISRIC SoilGrids — the most probable soil class (e.g. Cambisols, Podzols) plus the top 5 classes with probabilities. Keyless; may take several seconds to respond.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| latitude | number | yes | Latitude in decimal degrees (-90 to 90). |
| longitude | number | yes | Longitude in decimal degrees (-180 to 180). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
soil_properties ~282
Get soil property values at any coordinate from ISRIC SoilGrids (250m global grid) — clay/sand/silt %, pH, organic carbon, nitrogen, cation exchange, bulk density, water content. Values are returned in real units (scaled from raw map units). Keyless; the SoilGrids API may take several seconds to respond.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| depth | string | – | Depth interval (default "0-5cm"). Valid: "0-5cm", "5-15cm", "15-30cm", "30-60cm", "60-100cm", "100-200cm". |
| latitude | number | yes | Latitude in decimal degrees (-90 to 90). |
| longitude | number | yes | Longitude in decimal degrees (-180 to 180). |
| properties | array | – | Soil property codes to query (default ["clay","sand","silt","phh2o","soc"]). Valid codes: clay, sand, silt (texture %), phh2o (pH in water), soc (soil organic carbon), nitrogen, cec (cation exchange… |
