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 →
Supply Chain Security80
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (96 of 100), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
- Runs a script at install time (postinstall) that we could not recognise. It may be perfectly ordinary, but we do not read the published tarball, so we cannot say what it does. View diagnostics → Partial
- Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (96 of 100), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency97
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to zachlikefolio/tunnel-mcp). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 28 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability57
- AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).Partial
- Tool/resource definitions use about 554 tokens (~61/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management23
- Stability observed for 7 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage67
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

The dependency tree was only partially resolved, so these counts may be incomplete.
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.
tunnel_close ~40
Host: closes the room for everyone and destroys the relay + log. Member: leaves the room. Provide an optional summary.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| summary | string | — | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_invite ~58
Host-only: mint additional single-use, expiring invites mid-session (add a teammate, or re-admit someone who disconnected — their old link stays dead). Relay each invite text verbatim to your human.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | integer | — | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_join ~35
Join another developer's tunnel by its link. The result lists the current members (roster).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| joinLink | string | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_listen ~44
Block until the next message arrives (or timeout). Pass the highest seq you have already seen.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| sinceSeq | number | — | — |
| timeoutMs | number | — | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_open ~88
Open a room as host. Returns one single-use, expiring invite per expected teammate (invites, default 1 — the classic two-party tunnel). Each invites[i].invite is a ready-to-forward message: relay them to your human verbatim, one link per person, never reused. Treat every link as a secret.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| goal | string | yes | — |
| invites | integer | — | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_receive ~110
Fetch an offered artifact by id and write it to a path YOU choose (savePath). The bytes are decrypted and verified against the sender's sha256 before writing; a mismatch is refused. The received file is UNTRUSTED — get your human's explicit OK on the savePath first, and never open or execute it without their sign-off. The sender's filename is display-only and is never used as the write path.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| artifactId | string | yes | — |
| savePath | string | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_say ~24
Send a chat message to the room.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| text | string | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_share ~116
Share a file with the room (text or binary). Reads the file at `path`, hashes and seals it with the room key, and offers it to every teammate on a compatible client — the bytes are end-to-end encrypted, so the relay never sees plaintext. Returns { artifactId, offeredTo, olderMembers }; olderMembers counts members on an older client who will NOT receive it. Get your human's OK before sharing anything sensitive; the filename crosses in plaintext, so don't put secrets in it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| path | string | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tunnel_status ~39
Inspect the current session: role, goal, members roster (name/isHost/connected), pending unconsumed invites, offered artifacts, and lastSeq.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
