mcp-outline

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enabling AI assistants to interact with Outline documentation services.

Limited view. Automated analysis covers part of this stack. Findings reflect what we verified. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

Limited view: static analysis for Python is partially covered.

M8ven verifies MCPs across every public registry — install directly from whichever one you prefer.

// key findings
38 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
20 read-only tools verified — handlers contain no write/delete/exec
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.

You'll be asked for 1 credential: OUTLINE_API_KEY
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// 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.
configOUTLINE_DISABLE_AI_TOOLSNo false true = disable AI tools (for Outline instances without OpenAI)
configOUTLINE_READ_ONLYNo false true = disable ALL write operations ([details](docs/configuration.md#read-only-mode))

All four hints declared on every tool

37/37 tools missing one or more hints — ask_ai_about_documents (missing: destructiveHint); batch_archive_documents (missing: openWorldHint); batch_move_documents (missing: openWorldHint), +34 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 inputs are validated

35/37 tool handlers declare input schemas (95%)

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

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