// key findings
✅
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
✅
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

qgis_ping

Versión de QGIS y confirmación de que el backend responde.

load_project

Abre un proyecto .qgz/.qgs existente.

save_project

Guarda el proyecto actual (mismo path si se omite).

list_layers

Lista id, nombre, tipo, CRS y conteo de objetos de cada capa cargada.

get_layer_info

Esquema de campos, CRS, extensión y proveedor de una capa (id o nombre).

add_vector_layer

Carga un vector (shapefile, GeoPackage, etc.) al proyecto.

add_raster_layer

Carga un ráster al proyecto.

remove_layer

Quita una capa del proyecto (id o nombre).

zoom_to_layer

Devuelve el extent de una capa (headless: úsalo como extent explícito para export_map_image, no hay lienzo interactivo real).

set_extent

Define un extent explícito [xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax] en el CRS indicado.

set_layer_style

Aplica un QML, o una simbología simple (categorized/graduated) por campo.

calculate_field

Equivalente a la calculadora de campos. field_type: int/double/string/bool.

get_attribute_table

Lee datos de la tabla de atributos. Indispensable para verificar resultados.

list_algorithms

Busca el id exacto de un algoritmo de Processing por palabra clave.

get_algorithm_help

Parámetros esperados de un algoritmo (tipos, opcionalidad, default). Llamar antes de usar un algoritmo que no se haya usado ya en la sesión.

run_processing_algorithm

Ejecuta cualquier algoritmo nativo/GDAL/SAGA/GRASS de Processing. Los valores de 'parameters' que coincidan con un layer_id o nombre de capa cargada se resuelven automáticamente a la capa real.

export_map_image

Renderiza capas específicas (o todo el proyecto) a un PNG en 'path'.

create_print_layout

Crea una lámina de impresión lista para exportar: mapa con las capas indicadas, título, leyenda, escala gráfica y grilla de coordenadas opcional. Sin 'layer_ids' usa todas las capas del proyecto; sin 'extent' usa el fijado con set_extent() o la extensión de las capas.

export_layout_pdf

Exporta un layout existente a PDF.

execute_pyqgis

Corre código PyQGIS arbitrario. Usar solo cuando ninguna tool estructurada cubre la necesidad. Variables disponibles: project, qgs_app, qgis_core, qt_core, processing. Deja el resultado en una variable llamada 'result'.

// environment variables
To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

20/20 tools missing one or more hints — qgis_ping (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); load_project (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); save_project (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +17 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 3 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
