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.

refresh_collection

Force an immediate full refresh of the cached collection snapshot. Use after adding or removing items in Discogs if you need them visible to search before the next hourly sync.

search_collection

Search your Discogs collection with natural language queries. IMPORTANT: Pass the user's query as-is — do NOT rewrite, decompose, or make multiple searches. The tool handles semantic/conceptual queries internally (e.g., 'strong empowering female voice', 'perfect for a rainy Sunday') by first attempt

get_release

Get detailed information about a specific release from Discogs, including tracklist, formats, labels, and more.

search_discogs

Search the Discogs-wide catalog for releases, masters, artists, or labels (not limited to your collection). Use this to look up albums, artists, or releases that you don't own. If you want to search only what you own, use search_collection instead.

get_collection_stats

Get comprehensive statistics about your Discogs collection including genre breakdown, decade analysis, format distribution, and ratings.

get_recommendations

Get personalized music recommendations from your collection based on genre, decade, mood, or similarity to other releases. Supports mood-aware filtering with descriptors like 'mellow', 'energetic', 'melancholic'.

get_cache_stats

Get cache performance statistics including total entries, pending requests, and data type breakdown.

list_folders

List all folders in your Discogs collection. Shows folder ID, name, and release count for each folder. Folder 0 is "All" (virtual), folder 1 is "Uncategorized" (default).

create_folder

Create a new folder in your Discogs collection for organizing releases.

edit_folder

Rename an existing folder in your Discogs collection. Cannot rename the system folders (All or Uncategorized).

delete_folder

Delete a folder from your Discogs collection. The folder must be empty (no releases). Cannot delete system folders (All or Uncategorized).

add_to_collection

Add a release to a folder in your Discogs collection. If no folder is specified, adds to the Uncategorized folder (ID 1).

remove_from_collection

Remove a specific release instance from a folder in your Discogs collection. Use search_collection to find the instance_id for a release.

move_release

Move a release instance to a different folder in your Discogs collection. Use search_collection to find release and instance IDs, and list_folders to see available folders.

rate_release

Rate a release in your Discogs collection from 0 (no rating) to 5 stars. Use search_collection to find release and instance IDs.

list_custom_fields

List all custom fields defined in your Discogs collection. Custom fields allow you to add metadata like notes, tags, or categories to releases.

edit_custom_field

Set a custom field value on a release in your Discogs collection. Use list_custom_fields to see available fields and their IDs. For dropdown fields, the value must match one of the defined options.

// known CVEs in dependencies1 critical3 high4 medium

Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.

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 — refresh_collection (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); search_collection (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_release (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.

Tool inputs are validated

12/20 tool handlers declare input schemas (60%)

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

Tool handlers catch errors

16/20 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (80%)

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

Tool test coverage

Only 3/20 tools referenced in tests (15%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.

Shell command execution

1 child_process call — runs shell commands

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

No arbitrary install scripts

Has postinstall/preinstall script — runs arbitrary code on npm install

Remove postinstall/preinstall hooks unless they’re essential.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 2 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.24.3 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.24.3 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

Dev dependencies

2 critical/high in dev-only deps (does not ship to users)

Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.

Dependency freshness

1/8 production deps stale: oauth-1.0a@2022-06-22 (4y)

// 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.
