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
103/103 tools missing one or more hints — macro_start_recording (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); macro_stop_recording (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); macro_export_vba (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +100 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.
Tool test coverage
Only 2/103 tools referenced in tests (2%)
Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.
Production dependencies are patched
1 critical, 7 high severity in production deps — handlebars@4.7.8 (critical), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.17.2 (high)
Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.
Dev dependencies
1 critical/high in dev-only deps (does not ship to users)
Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.
