HiveMind

An MCP orchestration server that coordinates multiple AI coding agents using Copilot CLI for parallel task execution with dependency management, file locking, and observability.

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

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.

orchestrator_spawn

Spawn one or more AI agents to execute tasks. Agents are autonomous workers that can process instructions, run commands, and report results back to the orchestrator.

orchestrator_send

Send a message to a specific agent. Messages can be instructions, data payloads, queries, or cancellation requests.

orchestrator_wait
orchestrator_agent_status

Get detailed status of all active agents including their tasks, elapsed time, and results. Use this for visibility into what agents are doing.

orchestrator_kill

Terminate one or more agents. Supports graceful shutdown or forced termination. Use with caution as this will stop agent execution immediately.

orchestrator_submit_job
orchestrator_job_status
orchestrator_cancel_job
orchestrator_get_logs

Retrieve logs from the orchestrator with flexible filtering options. Supports filtering by job, agent, log level, time range, and content search.

orchestrator_get_metrics

Get system metrics and statistics from the orchestrator. Provides insights into agents, jobs, locks, memory usage, and event rates.

orchestrator_acquire_lock
orchestrator_release_lock
orchestrator_list_locks
orchestrator_health

Check the health status of the orchestrator system. Returns overall health status, uptime, version, and optionally detailed component health information.

orchestrator_config

Retrieve the current orchestrator configuration. Sensitive fields (tokens, passwords, secrets) are always masked for security.

get_system_status

Get comprehensive system status including agent pool stats, active locks, planner state, and recent activity. This tool provides a consolidated view of the orchestrator's health and current operational state, useful for: - Monitoring system health - Identifying contention hotspots - Troubleshootin

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

16/16 tools missing one or more hints — orchestrator_spawn (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); orchestrator_send (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); orchestrator_wait (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +13 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.

License file

No license file

Add a LICENSE file (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.).

Shell command execution

8 child_process/subprocess calls in production code — runs shell commands (src/agents/pod.ts:366, src/agents/pod.ts:435, src/demo/intelligent-decompose-demo.ts:53)

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

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 5 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.

Dependency freshness

2/21 production deps stale: openapi-types@2023-05-24 (3.2y), ajv-formats@2024-03-30 (2.4y)

// 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.
