37/100

arch-drawing-analyzer

Enables Claude to read and analyze large architectural drawing PDFs by slicing them into manageable chunks and bridging them into Claude's environment via the Filesystem connector.

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.

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.

get_analysis_prompt

Returns the analysis prompt template that describes how to analyze each architectural drawing page. Call this before analyzing pages.

o365_auth_status

Check whether the user is currently authenticated to Office 365 / SharePoint. Fast, no side effects — safe to call at any time.

o365_login_start

Start the Office 365 device code sign-in flow. Returns a URL and code that the user must visit to authenticate. After the user signs in, call o365_login_complete to finish.

o365_login_complete

Wait for the user to complete the device code sign-in started by o365_login_start. Blocks until the user finishes signing in or the timeout is reached.

o365_logout

Clear cached Office 365 tokens. The user will need to re-authenticate.

process_pdf

Load a PDF from a URL or local file path and inspect it. Returns metadata instantly — no image conversion. Use get_pages to retrieve actual page content as PDF.

get_pages

Extract pages from start_page to end_page (inclusive, 1-based).

save_pages

Extract pages and save as a PDF file to disk. Use this instead of get_pages when you need to read the pages via filesystem tools (e.g. copy_file_user_to_claude).

save_pages_as_images

Render pages as PNG images and save to disk. Use this when Claude needs to visually read the drawings. After saving, use Filesystem copy_file_user_to_claude to pull the images into Claude's environment for viewing.

search_pdf

Search for text within a processed PDF. Case-insensitive. Returns matching pages with context snippets and bounding boxes.

cleanup_session

Delete temporary files for a completed analysis session.

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

11/11 tools missing one or more hints — get_analysis_prompt (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); o365_auth_status (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); o365_login_start (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +8 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

2 tools perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — process_pdf deletes at line 234 (shutil.rmtree(temp_dir, ignore_errors=True)); cleanup_session deletes at line 441 (shutil.rmtree(temp_dir, ignore_errors=True))

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 — process_pdf (line 234: shutil.rmtree(temp_dir, ignore_errors=True))

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

Tool inputs are validated

7/11 tool handlers declare input schemas (64%)

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

Tool handlers catch errors

Only 2/11 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (18%)

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.

// 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.
