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

18/18 tools missing one or more hints — copilot_suggest (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); copilot_explain (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); copilot_version (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +15 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.

Descriptions match behaviour

10 tools describe read intent but their handlers mutate — copilot_suggest (line 130: result = subprocess.run(); copilot_explain (line 165: result = subprocess.run(); copilot_version (line 192: result = subprocess.run()

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

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

10 tools have description/behavior mismatches: copilot_suggest: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes; copilot_explain: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes; copilot_version: 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 6 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
