## 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 2026-08-04.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 89/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (117 of 122), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (117 of 122), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 97/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to smeet666/mcp-lyricscom).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 0 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 57/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 834 tokens (~278/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 96/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 87% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

**Unverified: 1 category.** A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

### `search_lyrics` (~291 tokens)

Search lyrics by word

Search lyrics.com for songs whose lyrics contain a given word or phrase. Returns matching songs with artist, title, a short excerpt of the line where the word appears, and the lyrics.com id and URL needed to fetch the full text with get_lyrics. Use this when someone remembers a fragment of lyrics but not the song, or wants songs mentioning a word or theme. One call returns one page of lyrics.com results; to see more, increase 'page' rather than 'limit'. lyrics.com also returns loose and title-only matches, so results are filtered locally to keep only songs where the word genuinely appears in the lyrics. Set 'verify' to "none" to see the raw, unfiltered list.

Input parameters:

- `include_excerpt` (boolean): Include the matching lyric line excerpt in each result.
- `limit` (integer): Maximum songs to return from this page.
- `page` (integer): Result page on lyrics.com. Each page holds up to 24 raw results.
- `query` (string, required): Word or short phrase to look for inside the lyrics, for example 'autrefois'.
- `verify` (string): How to confirm the query really appears in the lyrics. 'snippet' checks the excerpt lyrics.com already returned and costs nothing. 'full' fetches up to 5 song pages and checks the complete lyrics, wh…

Output parameters:

- `filtered_out` (integer): Rows dropped because the query was not found in their lyrics.
- `has_more` (boolean)
- `next_page`
- `notes` (array): Caveats worth knowing, such as a cache hit or partial verification.
- `page` (integer)
- `query` (string)
- `raw_result_count` (integer): Rows lyrics.com returned before local filtering and deduplication.
- `results` (array)
- `source` (string)

### `search_songs` (~200 tokens)

Search songs by title

Find songs on lyrics.com by their title. Returns candidate songs with artist, album, year, and the lyrics.com id and URL. Use this when someone names a song and you need its id to call get_lyrics, or to tell covers and versions by different artists apart. An optional 'artist' narrows the list. lyrics.com searches titles and lyrics together, so results are ranked and filtered locally by title match; use match="strict" to keep only genuine title matches.

Input parameters:

- `artist` (string): Optional artist name, matched case-insensitively against each result.
- `limit` (integer)
- `match` (string): 'strict' keeps only results whose title matches the query as a whole title, ignoring suffixes such as '(Remastered)'. 'loose' keeps anything lyrics.com returned, best match first.
- `page` (integer)
- `title` (string, required): Song title, or part of it.

Output parameters:

- `artist_filter` (string|null)
- `filtered_out` (integer)
- `has_more` (boolean)
- `next_page`
- `notes` (array)
- `page` (integer)
- `raw_result_count` (integer)
- `results` (array)
- `source` (string)
- `title` (string)

### `get_lyrics` (~247 tokens)

Get full lyrics

Fetch the full lyrics of one song from lyrics.com, given the song id or URL returned by search_lyrics or search_songs. Lyrics can be long, so the response is truncated by default: check 'truncated' and call again with 'offset' set to 'next_offset' to continue reading. Some lyrics.com pages legitimately have no lyrics on file; those come back with status "no_lyrics" and an empty lyrics field, which is a valid answer and not an error, so do not retry them. Always cite 'source_url' and the artist when showing lyrics to a user.

Input parameters:

- `highlight` (string): Optional word. When set, the response reports whether it appears in the lyrics and on which line.
- `id` (string): lyrics.com numeric song id, as returned by the search tools. Preferred over 'url'.
- `max_chars` (integer): Maximum characters of lyrics text to return in this call.
- `offset` (integer): Character offset to resume from, for lyrics longer than max_chars.
- `url` (string): Full lyrics.com song URL. Only www.lyrics.com URLs are accepted. Ignored when 'id' is given.

Output parameters:

- `artist` (string|null)
- `attribution` (string): Ready-to-display credit line.
- `highlight`
- `id` (string)
- `line_count` (integer)
- `lyrics` (string): Slice of the lyrics text. Empty when status is 'no_lyrics'.
- `next_offset`
- `offset` (integer)
- `returned_chars` (integer)
- `source` (string)
- `source_url` (string)
- `status` (string)
- `title` (string|null)
- `total_chars` (integer)
- `truncated` (boolean)
