## 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 2026-08-07.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 87/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - Known CVEs were checked across the 96 of 100 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - Dependency health was assessed across the 96 of 100 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 45/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 2 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 77/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 229 tokens (~114/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - 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**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **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.

## MCP tools (2)

### `request_approval` (~153 tokens)

Send a human approval request for a sensitive action. Returns a pause_id immediately — do not proceed until check_approval returns approved. Use before payments, deletions, external communications, or other irreversible operations.

Input parameters:

- `action_description` (string, required): What the agent is about to do, in plain English.
- `action_details` (object, required): Key-value details about the action (e.g. amount, vendor, target). String values only.
- `recipient_email` (string): Email to send the approval request to.
- `recipient_slack` (string): Slack channel or user ID (e.g. #approvals or U12345).
- `timeout_hours` (number): Hours before the request expires. Max 168.

### `check_approval` (~76 tokens)

Check the status of a pending approval request. Call this repeatedly until decision is 'approved' or 'rejected'. Never proceed with the requested action while status is 'pending'. Returns the signed decision when responded, or an error if timed_out/expired.

Input parameters:

- `pause_id` (string, required): The pause_id returned by request_approval.
