Trust breakdown (7 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 → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security98
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • 31 of 95 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability88
  • 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 360 tokens (~180/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management97
  • Stability observed for 29 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 2 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

MCP tools · 2 exposed · ~360 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
think ~217

Use this tool to record a structured reasoning step. It will not obtain new information or change any state — it appends your thought to the log. Use it when you need to: process results from previous tool calls before acting, plan your approach to a multi-step task, analyze a complex situation before deciding, or navigate environments with detailed policies. Do NOT use for simple single-step tasks or restating without analysis. When thinking, ask yourself: What am I assuming? What evidence supports this? What's my plan, and what could go wrong? You can adjust totalThoughts up or down as your understanding deepens. When you set nextThoughtNeeded to false, use the verify tool to challenge your conclusion before acting.

NameTypeReqDescription
nextThoughtNeededbooleanyesWhether another thinking step is needed after this one.

thoughtNumberintegeryesCurrent thought number in the sequence.
totalThoughtsintegeryesEstimated total thoughts needed. Can be adjusted up or down as you progress.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

verify ~143

Use this tool to challenge and evaluate your reasoning before committing to an action. It will not obtain new information or change any state — it logs your critical self-assessment. Use it when you need to: check if your planned action complies with all requirements, validate reasoning before committing, assess edge cases, or evaluate tool results for correctness. Do NOT use to confirm what you are already confident about. When verifying, steel-man the opposition: What is the strongest argument that your conclusion is wrong? If you can't defeat it, reconsider. If your verification reveals a flaw, use the think tool to revise your approach.

NameTypeReqDescription
