MCP tools · 5 exposed · ~493 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
alternatives ~98

Find alternatives to a specific tool. Searches for similar tools and compares their quality scores. Use this when a tool scores poorly and you want to suggest better options, or when a user asks "what else is like X?".

NameTypeReqDescription
limitnumber–Number of alternatives (default 5)
tool_namestringyesName or description of the tool to find alternatives for, e.g. "playwright-mcp" or "browser automation"

No examples provided.

evaluate ~95

Deep quality evaluation of a tool or MCP server. Returns score, signal breakdown, and specific red flags (abandoned, no license, single contributor, poor issue health). Use this BEFORE recommending or installing any tool to verify it is safe and well-maintained.
