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.
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.
view_imageDisplay an image file. On Termux (Android), opens in the system image viewer. On macOS/Linux, displays inline using Kitty graphics protocol.
Tool annotations match behaviour
1 read-only tool performs write/delete/exec — view_image (line 143: execFileSync("am", [)
Either remove the readOnlyHint:true annotation, or remove the write/delete call from the tool handler.
Destructive tools are labelled
1 tool perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — view_image deletes at line 81 (fs.rmSync(tmpDir, { recursive: true, force: true }))
Add destructiveHint:true to any tool whose handler calls .delete(), .upsert(), .update(), unlink, rm, DELETE, DROP, REPLACE INTO, or any operation that overwrites existing data.
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
view_image: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes
Update tool descriptions to accurately reflect all capabilities — especially write, delete, or execute operations.
