🚨
Code appears obfuscated
2 files are unreadable to a human reviewer. Cannot audit what they do.
🔐
You'll be asked for 7 credentials: CONTEXT7_API_KEY, BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY, MP_API_KEY, HF_TOKEN, OPENALEX_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, LLM_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.

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

120/120 tools missing one or more hints — _call_tool (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); _call_tool (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); _callable (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +117 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.

Destructive tools are labelled

1 tool perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — execute_python_code deletes at line 344 (Path(temp_file).unlink())

Add destructiveHint:true to any tool whose handler calls .delete(), .upsert(), .update(), unlink, rm, DELETE, DROP, REPLACE INTO, or any operation that overwrites existing data.

Tool inputs are validated

104/117 tool handlers declare input schemas (89%)

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

Tool handlers catch errors

Only 49/117 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (42%)

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

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

No eval / new Function

1 eval() or new Function() call — dynamic code execution

Replace eval / Function with explicit parsing or safer alternatives.

Shell command execution

5 child_process calls — runs shell commands

Prefer library functions over shell-outs. If you must shell out, ensure all inputs are properly escaped.

Readable source code

2 files appear obfuscated

Ship unminified, readable source.

// 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 9 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
