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_items

List inventory items from Homebox. Supports filtering by page number and location.

get_item

Get detailed information about a specific inventory item by ID

create_item

Create a new inventory item in Homebox

update_item

Update an existing inventory item

delete_item

Delete an inventory item by ID

list_locations

List all storage locations in Homebox

create_location

Create a new storage location

list_labels

List all labels/tags in Homebox

create_label

Create a new label/tag

search_items

Search for items using a query string. Searches across item names, descriptions, and other fields.

get_item_link

Get the direct link to an item by searching for it using asset ID, name, or description. This is the preferred tool when users ask for links to specific items. Returns the direct clickable URL.

set_item_parent

Set or change the parent item for an item. This creates a parent-child relationship where the item becomes a child of another item (e.g., putting an item inside a box).

remove_item_parent

Remove the parent relationship from an item. This makes the item no longer a child of another item.

add_item_field

Add or update a custom field on an item. Custom fields can store additional metadata like ISBN, serial numbers, or any other custom data. Supports text, number, boolean, and time field types.

remove_item_field

Remove a custom field from an item by field name.

get_locations_tree

Get the hierarchical tree structure of all locations in Homebox. Shows parent-child relationships between locations.

get_location

Get detailed information about a specific location by ID, including its children and parent.

update_location

Update an existing location's name, description, or parent.

update_label

Update an existing label's name, description, or color.

search_barcode

Search for product information using a barcode (EAN/UPC). Returns product details from barcode lookup services.

add_item_attachment

Add an attachment (image, document, etc.) to an inventory item. The file_location can be either a URL (http:// or https://) to fetch the file from, or an absolute file path on the local filesystem (e.g., '/mnt/images/photo.png'). The filename is automatically extracted from the URL or path. Supporte

// 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.
configLAN_LINKS(Optional) Use LAN for display links (default: false). Set to true to force LAN links
configUSE_LAN_API(Optional) Use LAN for API calls (default: true). Set to false to use WAN for API

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

21/21 tools missing one or more hints — list_items (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_item (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); create_item (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +18 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.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 3 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.21.1 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.21.1 (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 4 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
