cictikz

MCP server for AI-driven TikZ circuit schematics. Enables assistants to render TikZ figures, list symbols, get style guides, and iterate on designs.

Emerging. No concerning findings. Grades remain capped until the project builds reputation through adoption. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

The grade above is for the source repository. Registries can serve a different version, so we mark the ones we were not able to read.

// key findings
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.

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.

render_tikz

Compile TikZ and return the rendered PNG (or compile errors as text).

render_file

Compile an existing .tex figure file and return the rendered PNG.

list_symbols

List the cictikz symbol library: macro name + one-line description.

symbol_info

Macro signature, pin geometry, node anchors and an example for one symbol.

draw_schematic

Build a circuit structurally from a JSON spec and return TikZ or xschem source.

tikz_to_xschem

Convert a dialect TikZ figure body to xschem .sch content.

xschem_to_tikz

Convert an xschem .sch file to a dialect TikZ figure body.

style_guide

The cictikz figure style guide (line widths, arrows, colour policy, wiring).

list_examples

Search the example figure corpus (CICTIKZ_EXAMPLES) by filename and header comment.

get_example

Return the full TikZ source of one example figure.

lint_figure

Check a figure for wiring and style mistakes.

// 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.

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 — render_tikz (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); render_file (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_symbols (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.

Claim the listing to review these findings one by one and send us a correction where you disagree, straight to the team. Claiming also means we tell you when the grade moves, and reach you first if we find anything urgent.

// 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 2 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
