MCP tools · 5 exposed · ~1,851 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
caveat_check ~300

Load a single-file program and report authoring diagnostics, such as repeated rules or a missing reopening path. Use after editing source; choose caveat_validate for a declaration summary and caveat_test for behavior assertions. A clean check does not prove behavior; bundles are unsupported. report (caveat-check/0.1) contains loads, strict, diagnostics and suppressed diagnostics, with code, location, message and suggestion, or a load error. exitCode: 0 completed without a strict failure; 1 strict with unsuppressed diagnostics; 2 load failure or bundle. Returns the same JSON in structuredContent and text: {schema:"caveat-authoring/0.1",operation,sourceSha256,runtime,exitCode,report}. Read exitCode even when isError is false. Bridge failures instead set isError:true with {schema:"caveat-authoring-error/0.1",error:{kind,message}}.

caveat_dependents ~502

Replay optional events and find what rests on one named evidence item, reading stream or caveat. Use for impact inspection; caveat_explain instead explains all decisions and their reasons. Subjects are causes only: evidence, a reading stream or a caveat. Claims and decisions are never subjects, because a claim causes nothing and the grounds of a decision are evidence, not claims; both appear in the report as what the subject reaches. To trace from a claim, query the evidence that supports or opposes it (report.claims lists those relations). report (caveat-dependents/0.1) includes subject, kind, sequence, event outcomes, claims, decisions, changes, values, displayed values and withdrawal records; dependency entries distinguish grounds from possible influence through lineage. exitCode: 0 replay completed (may include rejected events); 1 fatal event with last good state; 2 load failure or unknown subject, with report.error. Returns the same JSON in structuredContent and text: {schema:"caveat-authoring/0.1",operation,sourceSha256,runtime,exitCode,report}. Read exitCode even when isError is false. Bridge failures instead set isError:true with {schema:"caveat-authoring-error/0.1",error:{kind,message}}.

caveat_explain ~320

Replay optional events and explain the resulting decisions, evidence and displayed values. Use to answer why a decision was made; choose caveat_dependents to trace one evidence or caveat name forward, and caveat_test for assertions. report (caveat-explain/0.1) includes sequence, event outcomes, decisions with grounds and revision history, evidence with caveats, displayed values and available archive history. exitCode: 0 replay completed (may include rejected events); 1 fatal event with last good state; 2 source load failure (report has loads:false and error). Returns the same JSON in structuredContent and text: {schema:"caveat-authoring/0.1",operation,sourceSha256,runtime,exitCode,report}. Read exitCode even when isError is false. Bridge failures instead set isError:true with {schema:"caveat-authoring-error/0.1",error:{kind,message}}.

caveat_test ~511

Run scenario assertions and runtime invariant checks against inline source, with a fresh session per scenario. Use to verify expected event outcomes and snapshot values; caveat_validate only checks loading, caveat_check reports diagnostics, and caveat_explain inspects history without assertions. report (caveat-scenario-report/0.1) includes files, per-scenario results/failures, check diagnostics and passed/failed totals. exitCode: 0 all passed; 1 scenario failure; 2 invalid scenario document (report has valid:false and error) or blocking authoring diagnostics. Every source reference must be inline.cav. Returns the same JSON in structuredContent and text: {schema:"caveat-authoring/0.1",operation,sourceSha256,runtime,exitCode,report}. Read exitCode even when isError is false. Bridge failures instead set isError:true with {schema:"caveat-authoring-error/0.1",error:{kind,message}}.

caveat_validate ~218

Load inline source with the installed runtime and list its declarations. Start here to find load errors; use caveat_check for authoring diagnostics and caveat_test to verify expected behavior. No events are dispatched. report (caveat-validate/0.1) contains program, loads, events, reading_streams, decision_series and displayed bindings, or a load error. exitCode: 0 loaded; 2 load failure. Returns the same JSON in structuredContent and text: {schema:"caveat-authoring/0.1",operation,sourceSha256,runtime,exitCode,report}. Read exitCode even when isError is false.

Common questions

What is the io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang MCP server?

io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang. Authoring bridge for Caveat: validate, check and test programs; explain decisions; find dependents. This page covers its npm package (caveat-lang).

Is the io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang MCP server safe to use?

io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang scores 93 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang MCP server expose?

io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang exposes 5 tools: caveat_validate, caveat_check, caveat_test, caveat_explain, caveat_dependents. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,851 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang MCP server still maintained?

io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang MCP server under?

io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

What did VerifyMCP test on the io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on io.github.WSattazahn/caveat-lang, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
