// 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.

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

58/58 tools missing one or more hints — list_environments (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); set_environment (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_current_environment (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +55 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 test coverage

Only 2/58 tools referenced in tests (3%)

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