mcp-pypi

An MCP server built with FastMCP that provides basic terminal abilities like running commands, running Python, and working with files and folders.

Warning. Serious findings were identified. Review the full report before connecting. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

// key findings
⚠️
Tool descriptions don’t match what handlers do
1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — grep (line 46: result = subprocess.run(['findstr', pattern, file], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, text=True))
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.

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.

bash

This function will execute a bash command and return the output. This function is useful for executing commands including creating files, directories, and other shell commands.

python_code

This function will execute a python code and return the output.

python_file

This function will execute a python file and return the output.

glob

This function will return a list of files that match the given pattern.

grep

This function will search for a given pattern in the specified file and return the matching lines.

read_file

This function will read the contents of a file and return it as a string.

write_file

This function will write the given content to a file. If the file does not exist, it will be created. If the file already exists, it will be overwritten.

create_folder

This function will create a folder with the given name. If the folder already exists, it will return a message indicating that the folder already exists.

delete_folder

This function will delete a folder with the given name. If the folder does not exist, it will return a message indicating that the folder does not exist.

// quality suggestions

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

9/9 tools missing one or more hints — bash (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); python_code (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); python_file (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +6 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 — delete_folder deletes at line 88 (shutil.rmtree(folder))

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 — grep (line 46: result = subprocess.run(['findstr', pattern, file], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, text=True))

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

Tool handlers catch errors

7/9 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (78%)

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

License file

No license file

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

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

Tool description accuracy

grep: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes

Update tool descriptions to accurately reflect all capabilities — especially write, delete, or execute operations.

// 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 8 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
