## 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 2026-11-04.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 100/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.
  - Runs setuptools.build_meta at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it.
  - 4 of 44 dependencies flagged as unhealthy.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 97/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to RahulSankhla312/contextsmith).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 10 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 (fair).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 481 tokens (~48/item across 10 items; 10 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 33/100
  - Stability observed for 10 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 71/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 0% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 10 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 11 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

### 2026-10-25 (score 76)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (10)

### `get_context` (~97 tokens)

The most relevant code for a task, packed into at most `budget_tokens` tokens.

Pass the task in plain words (a bug report, a feature request, a stack trace). Files are
ranked by full-text match, meaning (local embeddings), names and paths the task mentions
and git history; function bodies and outlines are then fitted into the budget.

Input parameters:

- `budget_tokens` (integer)
- `task` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `search` (~45 tokens)

Ranked symbols (functions, classes, methods) matching a query, as `path:lines  name (kind)`.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer)
- `query` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `find_symbol` (~35 tokens)

Where a function, class or method is defined (by name or qualified name), with its signature.

Input parameters:

- `name` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `callers` (~27 tokens)

Functions that call `name`.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer)
- `name` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `callees` (~29 tokens)

Functions that `name` calls.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer)
- `name` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `impact` (~64 tokens)

Everything that transitively calls `name`: what a change to it could break.

One line per caller, `depth  path:lines  name (kind)`, nearest first.

Input parameters:

- `depth` (integer)
- `limit` (integer)
- `name` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `related_files` (~34 tokens)

Files linked to `path` by imports/calls, and files that historically change with it.

Input parameters:

- `path` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `add_note` (~46 tokens)

Remember a decision, invariant or gotcha, optionally pinned to a file or symbol.

Input parameters:

- `path` (string)
- `symbol` (string)
- `text` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `overview` (~21 tokens)

Repository summary: languages, size, most central and most changed files.

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `reindex` (~18 tokens)

Re-index changed files (incremental and fast).

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

## Common questions

### What is the ContextSmith MCP server?

ContextSmith is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.RahulSankhla312/contextsmith. Give your coding agent the right code: graph + hybrid search, packed into a token budget. Local. This page covers its PyPI package (contextsmith).

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

ContextSmith scores 80 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 4 November 2026. 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 ContextSmith MCP server expose?

ContextSmith exposes 10 tools: get_context, search, find_symbol, callers, callees, and 5 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 416 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the ContextSmith MCP server still maintained?

ContextSmith is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 4 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 ContextSmith MCP server under?

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