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.

upload_file
download_file
get_file_info

根据标识码查看文件名、大小、校验值、下载链接与剩余保留时间,不返回文件内容。

list_files

列出当前未过期的文件,支持关键词、标签过滤与分页。忘记标识码时用它找回文件。

delete_file

立即删除指定标识码的文件与元数据,不等到期。操作不可恢复。

extend_expiry
create_upload_link
sweep_expired

手动触发一次到期清理(后台任务已经定时执行,一般无需调用)。

get_storage_stats

查看当前文件数量、占用空间、保留策略与下一个到期时间。

// known CVEs in dependencies3 high

All four hints declared on every tool

6/9 tools missing one or more hints — upload_file (missing: idempotentHint); download_file (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint); get_file_info (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint), +3 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 annotations match behaviour

1 read-only tool performs write/delete/exec — download_file (line 161: fs.mkdir(path.dirname(target), { recursive: true }))

Either remove the readOnlyHint:true annotation, or remove the write/delete call from the tool handler.

License file

No license file

Add a LICENSE file (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.).

Tool test coverage

Only 2/9 tools referenced in tests (22%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 3 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.0 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.0 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

// 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 5 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
