Third-party server, listed as discovered. Review its source before installing.
1 parameter(s) across 1 tool(s) have no description.
Add a "description" to each parameter with its format and an example ("ISO 8601 date, e.g. 2026-10-17"). This is the commonest cause of wrong arguments on the first call. How to fix →
In the last 30 days: 0 tool(s) removed and 3 schema change(s).
Add new tools or optional parameters instead of renaming or removing; deprecate first (say so in the description) and remove later. Agents cache tool contracts. How to fix →

Point your MCP client at this streamable-http endpoint: https://mcp.shelfclub.app/mcp
Glimind scanned all 6 tool definitions for tool-poisoning patterns — hidden or invisible characters, instructions that override the model, concealment from the user, requests to read credential or MCP config files, conversation exfiltration and cross-tool shadowing — and found none. This checks what the server tells the model, not what its code does; review the source before granting access to sensitive data.
