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.

list_claude_sessions

List local native Claude Code session logs for a project directory. Returns metadata by default; prompt/output snippets are optional.

get_claude_session

Inspect a local native Claude Code session log by id. Returns recent user/assistant text and any Remote Control URL recorded in the log.

start_remote_control

Start or resume a native Claude Code session with Remote Control enabled. Windows sessions are owned by a persistent per-user broker so Codex tasks can reconnect after refresh; Linux/macOS sessions use tmux.

capture_remote_control

Capture visible terminal output from the managed native Rail Connector Control session.

wait_for_claude_turn

Wait for Claude's current turn to finish using record-ordered local session-log completion and terminal state. Pass submit_prompt.waitAfterCursor verbatim.

send_text

Send literal text to the managed native Claude session. Use submit=true to press Enter after sending. For multi-line prompts use submit_prompt; newlines sent here may submit early. This can affect a live Claude session.

submit_prompt

Paste and submit a complete prompt to Claude using safer chunked input. Returns a non-empty waitAfterCursor for an unambiguous wait_for_claude_turn call.

send_key

Send a single key name to the managed native Claude session, such as Enter, Escape, C-c, Up, Down.

rename_claude_session

Rename the Claude conversation attached to a running managed session, then verify the title in Claude's local session log.

archive_claude_session

Archive a Claude conversation in the MCP-local catalog. This never moves, edits, or deletes Claude's JSONL transcript.

unarchive_claude_session

Remove a Claude conversation from the MCP-local archive catalog so it appears in active listings again. The transcript is unchanged.

stop_remote_control

Stop a managed native Rail Connector Control session.

get_claude_capabilities

Inspect the installed Claude CLI with bounded version/help probes without starting an interactive session. Reports advertised and experimental request paths; terminal capture cannot authenticate effective runtime posture.

status

Show terminal backend and Claude process status relevant to managed Remote Control sessions.

// 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

14/14 tools missing one or more hints — list_claude_sessions (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_claude_session (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); start_remote_control (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +11 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

2 tools perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — archive_claude_session deletes at line 759 (fs.promises.unlink(lockFile)); unarchive_claude_session deletes at line 759 (fs.promises.unlink(lockFile))

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

13/14 tool handlers declare input schemas (93%)

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

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

Shell command execution

3 child_process/subprocess calls in production code — runs shell commands (src/index.js:1434, src/windows-broker-client.js:279, src/windows-broker.js:417)

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

// 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 6 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
