MCP tools · 19 exposed · ~1,493 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
analyze_project_test_placement ~101

Derive advisory test-placement findings across an existing project-audits/v1 artifact while preserving project identity. Use this for multiple audited projects; use analyze_test_placement for one audit/v1 artifact. Does not rescan the repository, execute tests, or create, move, or modify files.

NameTypeReqDescription
projectAuditsobjectyesThe project-audits/v1 object returned by audit_projects; pass the artifact itself, not a file path.

analyze_repository ~132

Start here for an unfamiliar repository or a general test-architecture review. Detect and audit all project roots once, then return the complete deterministic summary, blockers, findings, ranking, plan, execution hints, verification commands, and stats. Prefer this over audit_repo unless one project root and adapter were explicitly selected.

NameTypeReqDescription
changedPathsarrayOptional repository-relative source paths to limit target selection inside detected projects.

analyze_test_placement ~125

Derive advisory test-placement findings from an existing single-project audit/v1 artifact. Use this for one audited project; use analyze_project_test_placement for a project-audits/v1 artifact. Does not rescan the repository, execute tests, or create, move, or modify files.

NameTypeReqDescription
auditobjectyesThe audit/v1 object returned by audit_repo or contained in projectAudits.audits[].audit; pass the artifact itself, not a file path.

No examples provided.

audit_projects ~114

Return raw per-project audit artifacts for all detected supported roots and report unsupported roots. Use when a downstream specialist tool needs project-audits/v1; for a complete first-pass review, prefer analyze_repository.

NameTypeReqDescription
changedPathsarrayOptional repository-relative source paths to limit target selection inside detected projects.

audit_repo ~102

Audit one explicitly selected project root and return audit/v1. Use only when the caller selected a single adapter or project boundary; adapterId defaults to javascript. For an unfamiliar or complete repository review, use analyze_repository.

collect_project_stats ~101

Aggregate coverage, counts, risk and signal distributions, frameworks, and adapter usage from an existing project-audits/v1 artifact. Use this for separate reporting or comparisons; analyze_repository already includes the same stats. Returns project-stats/v1 without rescanning the repository, executing tests, or writing files.

detect_projects ~105

Discover project roots, support status, and matching adapters without auditing source targets.
