Get measurement summary data with optional filtering and aggregation parameters.

get_prelim_search_data

Gets the schema fields and facet information for the search index in order to understand available fields and facet information for constructing a search query.

get_search_results

Performs a search query using the Searchcraft API with support for fuzzy/exact matching, facets, and date ranges.

add_stopwords

Add custom stopwords to an index. These are added on top of the default language-specific dictionary.

delete_all_stopwords

Delete all custom stopwords from an index. This only affects custom stopwords, not the default language dictionary.

delete_stopwords

Delete specific custom stopwords from an index. This only affects custom stopwords, not the default language dictionary.

get_index_stopwords

Get all stopwords for an index, including both default language dictionary and custom stopwords.

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

48/48 tools missing one or more hints — create_vite_app (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_searchcraft_status (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); analyze_json_from_file (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +45 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 — create_vite_app deletes at line 368 (rm(appDir, { recursive: true, force: true }))

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.

Descriptions match behaviour

1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — create_vite_app (line 357: mkdir(appsRoot, { recursive: true }))

Rename the tool, rewrite the description, or move the side-effect into a separate clearly-named tool.

Tool inputs are validated

Only 15/48 tool handlers declare input schemas (31%)

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

Tool test coverage

Only 13/48 tools referenced in tests (27%)

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

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 2 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.24.0 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.24.0 (high)

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

Dev dependencies

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

Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.

Tool description accuracy

create_vite_app: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes

Update tool descriptions to accurately reflect all capabilities — especially write, delete, or execute operations.

// 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
