MCP tools · 5 exposed · ~581 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
check_files ~184

Runs Oxlint and TypeScript (and optionally Biome) lint and type diagnostics on a specific list of files, using per-engine content-hash caching to skip unchanged files. Read-only; no files are written or modified. Use this for incremental checks after editing specific files; use check_project for a full project scan. The files parameter expects relative file paths (not glob patterns) within the project directory — absolute paths or paths outside the root return an error response. Caching is file-content-hash-based: a file is re-checked only when its content or the engine's config file (e.g., .oxlintrc, tsconfig.json) has changed since the last call, not based on git status. TypeScript is a whole-program engine: it re-runs whenever any TypeScript file in the request has changed content.

check_project ~117

Runs and clusters Oxlint and TypeScript (and optionally Biome) lint and type diagnostics for one or more project paths. Read-only; no files are written or modified. Paths default to the project root (".") when omitted; paths must be relative and within the project directory — absolute paths or paths outside the root return an error response. Use this for a full project scan; use check_files instead for faster incremental checks after editing specific files. Each call re-runs all enabled engines with no caching.

get_issue_detail ~126

Returns the full issue list for either one cluster ID or one issue ID from the most recent check_project or check_files call. Read-only; no files are written or modified. Supply exactly one of clusterId or issueId — supplying both or neither returns an argument error. If the referenced cluster or issue no longer exists in the latest results (e.g., after re-running a check), returns a status: "stale" response instead of an error; call check_project or check_files again to refresh.

get_loop_status ~99

Returns all diagnostic issue signatures currently flagged as looping (repeatedly appearing and disappearing) in this server session. Read-only; no files are written or modified. Loop history is accumulated across all check_project and check_files calls in this process lifetime, and is restored from .signalint/session.jsonl on startup. Takes no parameters. Use this to identify which diagnostics an agent is oscillating on; use check_project or check_files to run fresh diagnostics.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

ping ~55

Checks whether the Signalint MCP server is responsive. Read-only; returns the string "pong" with no side effects. Use this to verify the server is connected before running diagnostics. Invalid arguments return an error response; no authentication is required.

What tools does the io.github.TranQui004/signalint MCP server expose?

io.github.TranQui004/signalint exposes 5 tools: ping, check_project, check_files, get_issue_detail, get_loop_status. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 581 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.TranQui004/signalint MCP server still maintained?

io.github.TranQui004/signalint is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
