## 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 2026-10-24.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 99/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.

- **Provenance & Transparency**: 48/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.

  - Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 71/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 405 tokens (~135/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 20/100
  - Stability observed for 6 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 89/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 67% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - All 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 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.

## MCP tools (3)

### `identify` (~90 tokens)

Identify AI provenance

Report which AI provenance signals an image or video carries: metadata (C2PA, IPTC, EXIF, TC260), visible AI-generator labels, and supported local invisible-watermark decoders. Read-only. Video is detected by file suffix.

Input parameters:

- `check_visible` (boolean): Run the pixel and visible-mark detectors. False reads metadata only.
- `path` (string, required): Image or video file to inspect.

### `remove` (~123 tokens)

Remove AI watermarks from one file

Write a cleaned copy of an image or video the user generated or edited. mode=metadata strips AI metadata without touching pixels or re-encoding video; mode=visible also removes a known visible AI label; for an image, mode=all adds the invisible-watermark scrub where the installed extras and hardware allow it. The source is never overwritten; the default output is <name>_clean beside it.

Input parameters:

- `mode` (string)
- `output` (string): Output file. Must differ from the source.
- `path` (string, required): Image or video file to clean.

### `batch` (~91 tokens)

Remove AI watermarks from a directory

Clean every supported image (media=image) or video (media=video) in a directory the user owns, writing results to a separate directory (default <dir>_clean). Modes as for the remove tool.

Input parameters:

- `directory` (string, required): Directory of input files.
- `media` (string)
- `mode` (string)
- `output_dir` (string): Output directory. Must differ from the input.
