## 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 2026-09-21.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 23/100
  - Malware scan not yet available for this package.
  - Known CVEs were checked across the 96 of 96 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.

  - Actively maintained (last published 3 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 88/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 1595 tokens (~88/item across 18 items; 17 tools + 1 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.

  - 88% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 2 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "task_delete" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default.
  - An AI judge read all 18 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **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.

### 2026-09-18 (score 48)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (17)

### `license_status` (~54 tokens)

License status

Report this server's licence state: product, tier free or pro, licence id, expiry, the key source and the upgrade URL. No arguments, no network. Explains a free-tier refusal; license_activate installs a key.

### `license_activate` (~71 tokens)

Activate license

Activate a Pro key (MCPL1.xxx.yyy) from checkout: verified offline against a built-in public key, saved to your config file. A wrong, malformed or expired key is refused, unsaved. license_status reads it back.

Input parameters:

- `key` (string, required): License key from the checkout confirmation page

### `task_add` (~221 tokens)

Add task

Add one task to a board and return its id, board and column. The board is created on first use, so pass an existing project or leave it out. An identical open task is refused. Free: 3 boards, 200 open.

Input parameters:

- `column` (string): Column to start in; defaults to the first column (backlog)
- `due` (string): Due date: YYYY-MM-DD, 'today', 'tomorrow', 'Friday', 'next Monday' or '+3d'
- `estimate_minutes` (integer): How long you think it will take, in minutes
- `notes` (string): Longer notes for the task
- `priority` (string): Priority; defaults to normal
- `project` (string): Project or board name. A partial name matching exactly one existing project is used as that project. Defaults to your only board.
- `tags` (array): Free-form tags, e.g. ['writing','client']
- `title` (string, required): What the task is, e.g. 'Write the launch email'

### `task_list` (~165 tokens)

List tasks

List tasks as a table of id, project, column, title, priority, due, estimate, actual and tags, sorted by due date, with the total estimate. Done tasks are left out unless include_done. 200 rows default.

Input parameters:

- `column` (string): Only this column, e.g. 'doing'
- `due_before` (string): Only tasks due on or before this day (YYYY-MM-DD, 'today', 'Friday', '+7d')
- `include_done` (boolean): Include finished tasks; default false
- `limit` (integer): Rows to print; default 200
- `overdue` (boolean): Only tasks past their due date
- `project` (string): Only this project
- `tag` (string): Only tasks carrying this tag

### `task_move` (~82 tokens)

Move task

Move one task to another column of its own board and report the old and new column. An unknown column is refused, listing the real ones. Entering the done column stamps completion; leaving it clears it.

Input parameters:

- `column` (string, required): Target column, e.g. 'doing'
- `id` (string, required): Task id, e.g. NOVA-12

### `task_update` (~155 tokens)

Update task

Change a task by id: only the fields you pass are touched. tags REPLACES the whole list, due 'none' clears it, and project moves the task to a board that already exists. Returns the task's new row.

Input parameters:

- `column` (string)
- `due` (string): New due date, or 'none' to clear it
- `estimate_minutes` (integer)
- `id` (string, required): Task id, e.g. NOVA-12
- `notes` (string)
- `priority` (string)
- `project` (string): Move the task to another existing project board
- `tags` (array): Replaces the whole tag list
- `title` (string)

### `task_done` (~67 tokens)

Complete task

Mark one task finished: it moves to the board's done column (named done, else the last) and is stamped, leaving task_list and the open counts. Returns estimate against actual when both are known.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Task id, e.g. NOVA-12

### `task_delete` (~67 tokens)

Delete task

Delete one task by id, permanently; the id is never reused. The answer names any logged minutes lost. time-tracker entries are a separate store and are untouched. Use task_done to keep the record.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Task id, e.g. NOVA-12

### `task_search` (~72 tokens)

Search tasks

Find tasks whose id, title, notes or tags contain the query, across every board, finished ones included. Plain case-insensitive substring, never a regex. Use task_list for structured filters.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Rows to print; default 200
- `query` (string, required): Text to look for

### `board` (~63 tokens)

Show board

Show one board column by column: tasks, estimate, actual and overdue count in each, then the board totals and the estimate still open. Defaults to your busiest board. Use project_list for every board.

Input parameters:

- `project` (string): Which board; defaults to your busiest one

### `task_start_timer` (~70 tokens)

Start a timer for a task

Return the exact arguments to pass to the time-tracker's timer_start for one task, and record the link here. It starts nothing itself, and warns when the tracker's own project names would misfile the time.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Task id, e.g. NOVA-12

### `task_log_time` (~90 tokens)

Log time on a task

Add real minutes worked to one task so estimate and actual can be compared. Minutes ADD; a negative corrects an over-count. Below zero or past 100,000 is refused. This counter is the board's own.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Task id, e.g. NOVA-12
- `minutes` (integer, required): Minutes to add; a negative number corrects an over-count

### `project_list` (~52 tokens)

List projects

List every board with its task-id prefix, open and done counts, estimate still open and overdue count, plus free-tier use (3 boards, 200 open tasks). Use board for one board broken down by column.

### `project_delete` (~77 tokens)

Delete project board

Delete an empty board and give its free-tier slot back. A board still holding tasks, open or done, is refused with one named, because task_add creates boards as a side effect and the work would be lost.

Input parameters:

- `project` (string, required): Board to remove, e.g. 'Nova Site'. It must hold no tasks at all.

### `overdue` (~94 tokens)

Overdue tasks

List every task whose due day is already past, across all boards, oldest first, in the task_list table. as_of measures against a day you name. A finished task, or one with no due date, never counts.

Input parameters:

- `as_of` (string): Measure against this day instead of today (YYYY-MM-DD, 'next Monday', '+7d')
- `limit` (integer): Rows to print; default 200

### `weekly_review` (~80 tokens)

Weekly review

Compare done against planned for one ISO week per project: how many were due, how many of those are finished, how many were completed, and estimate against actual minutes. Any week but this one is Pro.

Input parameters:

- `week` (string): ISO week, e.g. '2026-W36'. Defaults to this week. Past weeks are a Pro feature.

### `columns_set` (~96 tokens)

Set board columns

Replace one board's columns, in order, with 2 to 12 unique names. Tasks in a removed column move to the FIRST column. Blanks are dropped first, so a list normalising below two names is refused. Pro.

Input parameters:

- `columns` (array, required): The new column names in order, at most 12, e.g. ['inbox','next','doing','done']
- `project` (string, required): Which board
