MCP tools · 31 exposed · ~2,860 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
agent_run ~139

Run a local Agent by name. Executes via the Rotifer CLI (rotifer agent run <agent-name>). The Agent must exist in .rotifer/agents/. Returns stdout/stderr from the execution.

NameTypeReqDescription
agent_namestringyesAgent name (as given during create_agent)
inputstringInput data to pass to the agent (JSON string)
no_sandboxbooleanForce Node.js execution, skip WASM sandbox. Refused unless the server was launched with --allow=no-sandbox.
project_rootstringProject root path
verbosebooleanShow intermediate results for each gene step

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

arena_submit ~136

Measure a local Gene in the sandbox and submit the measured result to the Arena. Requires authentication (rotifer login) and a Gene that exists locally — use list_local_genes to see them, install_gene to fetch one. The fitness scores are produced by running the Gene, not supplied by the caller: passing fitness_value, safety_score, success_rate, latency_score or resource_efficiency is refused. Runs `rotifer arena submit <gene> --cloud`.

NameTypeReqDescription
gene_namestringyesLocal Gene name to measure and submit (see list_local_genes)
project_rootstringProject root path (defaults to cwd)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

auth_status ~35

Check current authentication status. Returns whether the user is logged in, their username, provider, and how many minutes until the token expires.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

compare_genes ~48

Compare two or more Genes by their F(g) fitness metrics. Returns side-by-side fitness breakdown.

NameTypeReqDescription
gene_idsarrayyesArray of Gene UUIDs to compare (2-5)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

compile_gene ~121

Compile a local Gene to WASM via the Rotifer CLI (rotifer compile). The Gene must exist in the local genes/ directory. Returns compilation output.

NameTypeReqDescription
checkbooleanValidate only, don't produce artifacts (default: false)
gene_namestringyesGene name (directory name under genes/)
langstringForce compilation mode (auto-detected by default)
project_rootstringProject root path
wasm_pathstringPath to a pre-compiled .wasm file to wrap as IR

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_agent ~172

Create a new Agent by composing one or more local Genes. The Agent is saved to .rotifer/agents/ in the project. Genes must exist locally (wrap them first with wrap_gene).

NameTypeReqDescription
agent_namestringyesAgent name
compositionstringComposition strategy (default: Seq for multi-gene, Single for one gene)
domainstringDomain tag for the agent (e.g. search.web). Metadata only, does not auto-select genes.
gene_idsarrayyesArray of local gene names to compose (at least one required)
par_mergestringMerge strategy for Par composition (default: first)
project_rootstringProject root path (defaults to cwd)
strategystringGene selection strategy (default: greedy)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

doctor ~74

Check the local TypeScript→WASM toolchain (esbuild / javy) and report what is missing or misconfigured. Read-only: inspects the environment and changes nothing. Use this when compile_gene fails — a missing or broken toolchain is the most common cause.

NameTypeReqDescription
project_rootstringProject root path

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_arena_rankings ~186

Get Arena rankings for a domain. Each row carries a tier — `verified` (measured in a sandbox, with enough independent callers to stand), `under_evaluation` (measured, not yet corroborated), `not_evaluated` (disqualified, or a number that was estimated rather than measured) — and `rank` is null wherever the tier grants no rank. Prefer `verified` when picking a Gene for a capability; an estimated or disqualified number is not a measurement of anything. Also returns F(g) before and after the fidelity discount, safety, success_rate, latency, resource_efficiency, sample size and unique callers.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringCapability domain (e.g. search.web)
pagenumberPage number (default 1)
per_pagenumberResults per page (default 20)

NameTypeReqDescription
usernamestringyesCreator username

Is the io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server server safe to use?

io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server scores 95 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. 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 io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server server expose?

io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server exposes 31 tools: search_genes, get_gene_detail, get_arena_rankings, compare_genes, get_gene_stats, and 26 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,860 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server server still maintained?

io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 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 io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server server under?

io.github.rotifer-protocol/mcp-server declares the Apache-2.0 licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
