## 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 2026-08-03.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 87/100
  - No malware found by supply-chain analysis.
  - Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (103 of 107), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (103 of 107), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 97/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to wspringer/math-svg-mcp).
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 177 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 63/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 436 tokens (~218/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 23/100
  - Stability observed for 7 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (2)

### `latex_to_svg` (~207 tokens)

Convert a LaTeX math expression to SVG and return the SVG content directly. Best for small expressions where you need the SVG inline.

Input parameters:

- `display` (boolean): Display mode (block) vs inline mode. Default: true
- `fontSize` (number): Font size (em size) in the same unit as the output. E.g., 11 for 11pt when unit=pt, or 16 for 16px when unit=px. Default: 16
- `latex` (string, required): The LaTeX math expression to convert
- `unit` (string, required): Output unit for width/height. Use pt for print/InDesign, px for web/browsers, mm for metric print, ex to keep relative units
- `xHeightRatio` (number): Ratio of x-height to font size. Varies by font: Times 0.45, Helvetica 0.52, Computer Modern 0.43. Default: 0.5

### `latex_to_svg_file` (~229 tokens)

Convert a LaTeX math expression to SVG and save it to a file. Best for larger expressions or when you need to reference the SVG by path.

Input parameters:

- `display` (boolean): Display mode (block) vs inline mode. Default: true
- `fontSize` (number): Font size (em size) in the same unit as the output. E.g., 11 for 11pt when unit=pt, or 16 for 16px when unit=px. Default: 16
- `latex` (string, required): The LaTeX math expression to convert
- `outputPath` (string, required): The file path where the SVG should be saved
- `unit` (string, required): Output unit for width/height. Use pt for print/InDesign, px for web/browsers, mm for metric print, ex to keep relative units
- `xHeightRatio` (number): Ratio of x-height to font size. Varies by font: Times 0.45, Helvetica 0.52, Computer Modern 0.43. Default: 0.5
