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 →
checkContrast Check text/background contrast against WCAG ~131
Check whether a foreground color is legible on a background color per WCAG 2.x contrast ratios. Returns the ratio (1-21) and whether it passes AA and AAA. Set large=true for text >=18pt (or 14pt bold). This is the legibility axis, separate from color-blindness.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| background | string | yes | Background hex color, e.g. #ffffff |
| foreground | string | yes | Text/foreground hex color, e.g. #767676 |
| large | boolean | – | True if text is >=18pt or 14pt bold (default false) |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
checkImage Check an image for colorblind-safety ~265
Check whether the colors in an image, chart, screenshot or mockup stay distinguishable for people with color-vision deficiency. Extracts the image's dominant colors, simulates protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia, and flags the color pairs that collapse into each other — each with how much of the image's area those colors cover, so a conflict between two large regions ranks above one between two specks. Reads PNG and JPEG. Pass `path` for a local file, or a base64 `dataUri`. Set returnSimulated=true to also get back the image as a deuteranope sees it. A screening aid, not a legal (ADA/WCAG) audit.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| dataUri | string | – | Base64 data URI of the image, if you don't have a file path |
| maxColors | integer | – | How many dominant colors to extract and test (default 12) |
| path | string | – | Path to a local PNG or JPEG file, e.g. ./dashboard.png |
| returnSimulated | boolean | – | Also return the image recolored as a deuteranope sees it (default false) |
| simulateType | string | – | Which deficiency to render when returnSimulated is set (default deutan) |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
checkPalette Check a color palette for colorblind-safety ~103
Check whether a set of colors stays distinguishable for people with color-vision deficiency (colorblindness). Simulates protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia and flags the pairs whose perceptual difference collapses under simulation. A screening aid, not a legal accessibility (ADA/WCAG) audit.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| colors | array | yes | Hex colors to check together, e.g. ["#d7191c","#1a9641","#2166ac"] |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
fixPalette Fix a palette to be colorblind-safe ~97
Take a set of colors that fails the colorblind-safety check and return an adjusted set that passes, staying as close to the originals as possible. Conflicting colors are separated in lightness (the axis color-vision deficiency preserves). Returns the new colors, how far each moved, and whether it fully passes.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| colors | array | yes | Hex colors to fix, e.g. ["#d7191c","#1a9641"] |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
generateSafePalette Generate a colorblind-safe palette ~95
Return N colorblind-safe hex colors — distinct to each other under protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia. Seeded with the Okabe-Ito palette and safely extended above eight. Use when asked for accessible / colorblind-safe / colorblind-friendly colors for a chart, plot, map or UI. Never returns an unsafe color.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | integer | yes | How many colorblind-safe colors to return |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
simulateColor Simulate a color under colorblindness ~65
Return how a single hex color appears to someone with a given type of color blindness (protan, deutan, or tritan).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| color | string | yes | Hex color, e.g. #d7191c |
| type | string | yes | Color-vision deficiency type |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.

What tools does the io.github.vince-gonzalez/cvdsafe MCP server expose?
io.github.vince-gonzalez/cvdsafe exposes 6 tools: checkPalette, simulateColor, fixPalette, checkContrast, checkImage, generateSafePalette. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 756 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the io.github.vince-gonzalez/cvdsafe MCP server still maintained?
io.github.vince-gonzalez/cvdsafe 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.
