Trust breakdown (6 categories)

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 →

Supply Chain Security87

No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (95 of 99), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (95 of 99), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial

Provenance & Transparency45

Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
Actively maintained (last published 147 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
Tool/resource definitions use about 2106 tokens (~48/item across 43 items; 43 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

Stability & Change Management27

Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial

Tool Coverage95

100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
83% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
