Available components
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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security99
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised native-build step with no shell scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
- 5 of 36 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency32
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- License check failed: the license (MIT License) isn't a recognized OSI-approved license. See how to fix → Fail
- Actively maintained (last published 113 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability71
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 10091 tokens (~96/item across 105 items; 105 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management83
- Stability observed for 25 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage68
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 5% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety90
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- 6 of 10 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "merge_table_cells" implies "merge" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Partial
- An AI judge read all 105 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

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 →

word_live_setup_heading_numbering Word Live Setup Heading Numbering ~819
[Windows only] Set up auto-numbered headings with multilevel list (1. / 1.1). Creates a multilevel list template linked to Heading 1 and Heading 2 styles. Default formats: Level 1 = "%1." (produces "1."), Level 2 = "%1.%2" (produces "1.1"). Custom formats supported — e.g., h1_number_format="MADDE %1 – " produces "MADDE 1 – ". Applies styles and numbering to the specified paragraphs, then optionally strips manual number prefixes. Recognizes two patterns: - Numeric: "1. ", "6.2. ", "10.3 " (regex: ^\d+(\.\d+)*\.?\s+) - MADDE: "MADDE 6 – ", "MADDE 10 - " (regex: ^MADDE\s+\d+\s*[–-]\s*) If any style parameter is provided, Heading 1 and Heading 2 styles are customized before applying. If no style params are given, only numbering is applied (existing styles are preserved). Args: filename: Document name or path (None = active document). h1_paragraphs: List of 1-indexed paragraph numbers for Heading 1 (main sections). h2_paragraphs: List of 1-indexed paragraph numbers for Heading 2 (sub-sections). strip_manual_numbers: Remove leading number/MADDE prefix from headings (default True). h1_number_format: Custom Level 1 format (default "%1."). Use %1 for the number. Example: "MADDE %1 – " produces "MADDE 1 – ", "MADDE 2 – ", etc. h2_number_format: Custom Level 2 format (default "%1.%2"). Use %1 and %2. Example: "%1.%2." produces "1.1.", "1.2.", etc. font_name: Font family for both heading styles (e.g., "Cambria"). h1_size: Font size in points for Heading 1 (e.g., 13). h2_size: Font size in points for Heading 2 (e.g., 11). bold: Set bold on both heading styles (True/False). alignment: Paragraph alignment — "left", "center", "right", "justify". font_color: Text color as "#RRGGBB" hex (e.g., "#0D0D0D"). h1_space_before: Space before Heading 1 in points (e.g., 18). h1_space_after: Space after Heading 1 in points (e.g., 6). h2_space_before: Space before Heading 2 in points (e.g., 12). h2_space_after:…
