get_tool_list

获取研究可用的所有工具列表，或根据用户查询智能推荐最合适的工具并提供研究策略指导。 两种使用模式： 模式1：获取所有工具 - 直接调用，不传任何参数 - 返回所有可用工具的完整列表 - 用于了解系统中有哪些工具可用 模式2：智能工具推荐（推荐） - 传入 user_query 参数 - 系统会根据查询内容智能推荐最合适的工具 - 返回推荐工具列表、参数建议和研究策略 - 适用于需要搜索、研究或查询的场景 参数说明： - user_query（可选，推荐模式必需）：用户的研究查询或问题 - max_tools（可选）：推荐的最大工具数量，默认 5 - max_iterations（可选）…

execute_tools

执行从远程MCP服务器获取的工具（支持单个或批量并行执行）。 重要约束： - 此工具只能执行从远程MCP服务器获取的工具，工具名称格式为"server_name-tool_name" - 不能执行用户直接添加到MCP客户端的其他工具 - 如果工具名称不是"server_name-tool_name"格式，说明该工具应该直接调用，不要通过此工具执行 如何区分： - 工具名称包含 "-" 且格式为 "server_name-tool_name" 则通过此工具执行 - 工具名称不包含 "-" 或不是 "server_name-tool_name" 格式则直接调用 使用方式： 方式1：执行单个工…

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

2/2 tools missing one or more hints — get_tool_list (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); execute_tools (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint). 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.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

Secrets not logged

2 secret values sent to console.log

Redact or omit secret values from log output.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 2 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.25.1 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.25.1 (high)

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

// 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 5 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
