Risk Summary

Safe With Normal Controls

Dep Visibility is the main signal, but overall risk remains within an acceptable range.

Potential impact: This finding indicates the tool should be reviewed before it is trusted.

Recommended action: No high-risk findings were detected in this scan, but you should still apply least-privilege defaults and rescan after changes.

Suggested policy: keep this tool behind manual approval, do not allow unattended runs, and re-scan after narrowing risky permissions.

    − 2 removed

    convertvalidate

    Fix: The set of tools exposed by this server changed between scans of the same version — a sign the package was silently updated without a version bump. Audit the changelog and all tool definitions before trusting this server. Pin to a specific commit hash rather than a floating version tag.

  • LowAS-011

    ℹī¸Missing Rate-Limit / Timeout

    test_guidance:tool performs network or execution operations but declares no rate-limit, timeout, or retry configuration

    Fix: Declare explicit rate-limit, timeout, and retry configuration for all network and execution tools. Implement exponential back-off and surface resource state to the calling agent.

  • InfoAS-014

    ℹī¸Dependency Inventory Unavailable ×20

    Tool did not expose metadata.dependencies or repo_url, so supply-chain coverage is limited.

    declared capabilities: filesystem access

    create_feature_workflowvalidate_actionvalidate_phase_completionphase_output

    declared capabilities: code/command execution

    test_guidance

    Fix: Tool requests broad permissions (exec/fs/network). Validate input parameters using Enums where possible, and restrict file system operations to explicit allowed directories.

Scan this tool yourself

Reproduce this audit locally, integrate into CI, or let your agent audit its own tools.

Install once, then scan any MCP server:

$ curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AgentSafe-AI/tooltrust-scanner/main/install.sh | bash
$ tooltrust-scanner scan --server "npx -y spec-workflow-mcp"

Adjust the package name if your npm registry name differs from the tool ID. View source
