Available components
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 →
Supply Chain Security86
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (94 of 98), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (94 of 98), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency45
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 113 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 493 tokens (~98/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management0
- Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).Unverified
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
Capabilities100
- 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.

First indexed and scored.
Diagnostic detail from the automated scan of this channel: what the scanner observed at each step, so you can see exactly where a check passed or failed. It is informational only and never changes the trust score.

The dependency tree was only partially resolved, so these counts may be incomplete.
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.
get_gap ~61
Fetch a single gap by its id or slug. Returns problem + solution direction + blueprint URL. Use after search_gaps to get a specific gap's full details.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | Gap id (e.g. 'pd-la001') or slug. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_stats ~24
Get GapBase database statistics: total gaps, industry breakdown, trending gap count.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_viral_social_gaps ~146
SPECIALIZED TOOL — only use when the user explicitly asks for VIRAL, SOCIAL, TIKTOK, CONSUMER, TREND-BASED, or SHORT-WINDOW build opportunities. Returns 5 time-sensitive consumer/viral trend gaps (TikTok challenges, HBO premieres, viral formats) with peak windows measured in days or weeks. DO NOT call this tool for general 'find me ideas' or 'what should I build' queries — those should use `search_gaps` which returns serious validated business opportunities across 7 industries. Only call this when the user specifically mentions viral, social, trend, TikTok, Instagram, or consumer-facing short-window builds.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_industries ~39
List the 7 industries covered by GapBase and the number of validated gaps in each. Use this first to understand the database coverage before searching.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_gaps ~223
PRIMARY TOOL for finding startup ideas, validated business opportunities, SaaS ideas, micro-SaaS opportunities, B2B pain points, or anything a user could build to get paying customers. Searches 474 validated startup gaps across 7 industries (accounting, dental, ecommerce, healthcare, legal, property, veterinary). Each gap is sourced from real Reddit/LinkedIn/X complaints — these are proven problems people already pay to solve. Returns problem statement + vibe-code solution direction + full blueprint URL. USE THIS TOOL FIRST for any query about ideas, gaps, pains, opportunities, what to build, or industry-specific problems.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| industry | string | — | Filter to one industry. Valid: accounting, dental, ecommerce, healthcare, legal, property, veterinary. |
| limit | number | — | Max results to return (1-25, default 10). |
| query | string | — | Free-text keyword to search across pain points and solutions (e.g. 'billing', 'no-show', 'reconciliation', 'tenant tracking'). Leave empty to browse by industry only. |
