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

Provenance & Transparency45
Schema Quality & AI Usability65
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 565 tokens (~282/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail

Stability & Change Management0

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
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.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 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

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 exposed · ~435 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
load_session_checkpoint ~113

Load the project's .claude-checkpoint and return a compact brief of the previous session's goal, progress, next steps, touched files and recent commands, plus which files changed since it was saved. Call at the start of a session or when the user asks to resume.

NameTypeReqDescription
formatstring–brief: compact markdown for resuming (recommended). full: the complete checkpoint JSON.
projectRootstring–Absolute path of the project. Defaults to the client's workspace root or the server's working directory.

No examples provided.

save_session_checkpoint ~322

Save the current session's goal, progress, touched files and recent commands to a .claude-checkpoint file in the project, so a new session can resume after a crash, /clear, or context limit without re-exploring. Call after finishing a milestone, before risky operations, and when the conversation is getting long. Git branch, HEAD and uncommitted files are captured automatically.

NameTypeReqDescription
decisionsarray–Key decisions, constraints, and dead ends to avoid repeating.
goalstringyesThe primary objective of the session, in one or two sentences.
modestring–replace: overwrite the checkpoint. merge: update the existing one, appending commands, decisions and files.
modifiedFilesarray–Files you changed, with an optional note. Uncommitted git changes are detected automatically; list files here to annotate them or to include committed ones.
nextStepsarray–Concrete next actions, in order, for whoever resumes.
projectRootstring–Absolute path of the project. Defaults to the client's workspace root or the server's working directory.
recentCommandsarray–Recent significant terminal commands (builds, tests, migrations), oldest first, with exit codes and a short note on the outcome. Secrets are redacted automatically.
