⚠️
Tool descriptions don’t match what handlers do
1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — simple_form_extraction (line 166: with open(output_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:)
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.

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.

simple_form_extraction

Extract form structure and fields from one or more web page URLs. Args: url: A single URL starting with http:// or https:// urls: A list of URLs (max 5) to extract in parallel Returns: A dictionary containing a summary and an array of per-URL extraction results. Each result mirrors the previous sing

simple_form_filling

Fill a form with the provided data. The form filler will navigate to the URL, fill all the fields, and keep the browser open for user review and submission. COMPREHENSIVE FIELD FILLING STRATEGY: This tool is designed to fill ALMOST ALL fields in the form with meaningful values. You should strive to

create_cover_letter

Create a personalized cover letter file and return the file path. This tool creates a professionally formatted cover letter as a text file that can be used for job application form uploads. The cover letter should be tailored to the specific company and position. Args: company_name: Name of the comp

get_applied_jobs

ARTIFACT-ONLY TOOL: Retrieve all applied job applications and display them in a beautiful markdown format. CRITICAL: This tool ALWAYS returns the complete content as Markdown text that MUST be rendered as an artifact immediately without any additional commentary or explanation. Claude MUST create a

health_check

Check the health status of the form automation server. Returns: A dictionary containing the server status and active processes

// 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

5/5 tools missing one or more hints — simple_form_extraction (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); simple_form_filling (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); create_cover_letter (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +2 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

1 tool perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — simple_form_filling deletes at line 412 (temp_path.unlink())

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.

Descriptions match behaviour

1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — simple_form_extraction (line 166: with open(output_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:)

Rename the tool, rewrite the description, or move the side-effect into a separate clearly-named tool.

Tool inputs are validated

3/5 tool handlers declare input schemas (60%)

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

Tool handlers catch errors

4/5 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (80%)

Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

// 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.
