MCP server that searches ITA Matrix for complex flight itineraries, supporting multi-city trips and custom routing codes, to help plan intricate travel plans.

Warning. Serious findings were identified. Review the full report before connecting. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

// key findings
🚨
Hardcoded credentials detected
2 live-looking API keys in source: 2 Google API key
🔐
You'll be asked for 1 credential: ITA_MATRIX_API_KEY
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// 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.
configHOST
configITA_MATRIX_ALLOWED_HOSTS(unset) Comma-separated Host allowlist, guarding against DNS rebinding.
🔐 secretITA_MATRIX_API_KEYauto Pin the upstream key instead of discovering it.
configITA_MATRIX_CACHE_DIR
configITA_MATRIX_SECRET_PATH(unset) Mounts MCP at /mcp/<secret> instead of /mcp. The URL then acts as the credential.
configITA_MATRIX_TIMEOUT_MS150000 Upstream timeout. Multi-city searches are slow.
Deployment configuration, supplied by whoever hosts the server. Users are not asked for these.

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

5/5 tools missing one or more hints — search_flights (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_itinerary_details (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); search_flexible_dates (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +2 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.

Tool inputs are validated

4/5 tool handlers declare input schemas (80%)

Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.

Tool handlers catch errors

4/5 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (80%)

Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.

License file

No license file

Add a LICENSE file (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.).

No hardcoded API keys

2 live-looking API keys in source: 2 Google API key

Move secrets to environment variables (process.env.X) or your secret manager.

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 7 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
