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
32/32 tools missing one or more hints — linear_getCycles (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); linear_getActiveCycle (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); linear_addIssueToCycle (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +29 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.
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.
No arbitrary install scripts
Has postinstall/preinstall script — runs arbitrary code on npm install
Remove postinstall/preinstall hooks unless they’re essential.
Production dependencies are patched
0 critical, 4 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.6.0 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.6.0 (high)
Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.
Domain consistency
npm scope @emmett.deen doesn't match GitHub owner wkoutre
Use the same org name across GitHub, npm, and your homepage so users can verify the publisher.
