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
  • Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised native-build step with no shell scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • 4 of 51 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability78
  • 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1191 tokens (~297/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 Management43
  • Stability observed for 13 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
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.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 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~1,191 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
discover_links ~279

Discover all links on a webpage. Use this BEFORE fetch_batch to find relevant URLs. USE THIS TOOL WHEN: - Exploring a documentation site to find relevant pages - Building a list of URLs to fetch in batch - Finding all subpages under a section (e.g., all /api/ docs) - Checking what content exists before deciding what to read RECOMMENDED WORKFLOW: 1. discover_links(url="https://docs.example.com/", filter_pattern="/guide/") 2. Review the returned links and select relevant ones 3. fetch_batch(urls=[selected_urls], max_length_per_url=1500) FILTER EXAMPLES: - filter_pattern="/docs/" → Only links containing '/docs/' - filter_pattern="getting-started|quickstart" → Links with either term - filter_pattern="\.md$" → Only markdown file links NOTES: - Returns up to 100 links (more are noted but omitted to save context) - Relative URLs are automatically resolved to absolute URLs - JavaScript/mailto/anchor links are excluded

NameTypeReqDescription
filter_patternstringRegex to filter links. Examples: '/docs/', '\.pdf$', 'api|guide'. Leave empty for all links.
urlstringyesThe webpage URL to scan for links (e.g., a docs index or sitemap)
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

fetch ~386

Fetch a single webpage and extract its main content as clean markdown. USE THIS TOOL WHEN: - You need to read an article, documentation page, or blog post - You want clean, readable text without boilerplate (navbars, ads, footers) - The user provides a specific URL to read DO NOT USE WHEN: - You need to fetch multiple URLs (use fetch_batch instead - fewer round trips) - You want to discover what pages exist on a site (use discover_links first) PAGINATION: Large pages are automatically truncated. The response will include 'use start_index=N to continue' - call again with that value to get more content. EXAMPLES: - fetch(url="https://docs.example.com/guide") → Get documentation page - fetch(url="https://example.com/api", max_length=2000) → Shorter response to save context - fetch(url="https://example.com/data", include_tables=True) → Preserve tabular data

NameTypeReqDescription
bypass_robots_txtbooleanSkip robots.txt check. Only for user-initiated requests.
get_raw_htmlbooleanSkip extraction and return raw HTML. Use when you need original markup or extraction fails.
include_linksbooleanPreserve hyperlinks in markdown. Enable to follow references.
include_metadatabooleanInclude title, author, date at top. Disable to save tokens.
include_tablesbooleanPreserve tables in markdown. Disable for text-only articles.
max_lengthintegerMaximum characters to return. Use 1000-2000 for summaries, 5000 (default) for full content.
start_indexintegerCharacter offset for pagination. Use the value from 'start_index=N' in truncated responses.
urlstringyesThe webpage URL to fetch (must be http:// or https://)
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

fetch_batch ~256

Fetch multiple webpages in a single request and return combined content. USE THIS TOOL WHEN: - You have 2-10 URLs to read (e.g., from discover_links results) - Comparing content across multiple pages - Gathering context from several documentation pages at once KEY BENEFIT: One tool call instead of multiple fetch() calls = fewer round trips, faster results, and reduced overhead in supervised/approval workflows. WORKFLOW EXAMPLE: 1. discover_links(url="https://docs.example.com", filter_pattern="/api/") 2. fetch_batch(urls=[...returned links...], max_length_per_url=1500) NOTES: - Each URL's content is separated by '---' dividers - Failed URLs show inline errors without stopping other fetches - Robots.txt is NOT checked for batch fetches (assumes prior discovery)

NameTypeReqDescription
get_raw_htmlbooleanSkip content extraction and return raw HTML for all URLs.
max_length_per_urlintegerCharacter limit per URL. Use 1000-1500 when fetching many pages. Default 2000.
urlsarrayyesList of webpage URLs to fetch (max 10). URLs are fetched sequentially and results combined.
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.

fetch_llms_txt ~270

Fetch and parse an llms.txt file to discover LLM-friendly documentation. USE THIS TOOL WHEN: - A site provides an llms.txt file for AI-friendly content discovery - You need to understand what documentation is available - You want to fetch structured docs in a single request WHAT IS llms.txt: A proposal for sites to provide LLM-friendly content at /llms.txt. It's a markdown file listing documentation links with descriptions. See https://llmstxt.org for the specification. WORKFLOW: 1. fetch_llms_txt(url="https://example.com/llms.txt") → Get structure 2. Review sections and links 3. Either use include_content=True or fetch_batch for specific pages EXAMPLES: - fetch_llms_txt(url="https://fastht.ml/docs/llms.txt") - fetch_llms_txt(url="https://example.com/llms.txt", include_content=True)

NameTypeReqDescription
include_contentbooleanIf true, also fetch content of all linked pages. Default false.
max_length_per_urlintegerWhen include_content=True, max chars per linked page. Default 2000.
urlstringyesURL to an llms.txt file (e.g., https://example.com/llms.txt)
NameTypeReqDescription
resultstringyes

No examples provided.
