What to fix (5)

2 tool definition(s) exceed ~1,200 tokens each (largest: send_outbound_mail, ~2,104).

Move long reference material out of descriptions (link a doc or expose a resource), drop repeated examples, and collapse large enums. Trimming these to ~600 tokens saves ~2,155 tokens every session. How to fix →

Tools: send_outbound_mail, create_test_outbound_mail · saves ~2,155 tokens/session

47 tools on one server. Tool-selection accuracy drops as the menu grows, and some clients (e.g. Cursor) cap the number of active tools.

Group tools by task into smaller servers or toolsets, and merge near-duplicates behind one tool with a mode parameter. How to fix →

Loading this server's tool list costs an agent ~21,048 tokens before any work — more than 95% of MCP servers.

Split rarely-used tools into a separate server or a toolset the client can enable, or expose one "search tools" entry point. Many agents load every connected server's tools into every request. How to fix →

Handshake + tools/list takes ~1,521 ms.

Serve tools/list from memory, keep the process warm, and host close to your users. Every new agent session pays this before its first call.

In the last 30 days: 1 tool(s) removed and 36 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 →

Get alerted

Get an email or webhook when this server's readiness drops by 10+ points, tool-poisoning text appears, or a tool breaks:

curl -X POST https://glimind.com/v1/subscriptions -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"tools":["mcp-registry/bot.mailbox/mailbox"],"email":"[email protected]"}'

Agents: watch_tool({"toolId": "mcp-registry/bot.mailbox/mailbox"}) over MCP.

Is the Mailbox MCP server safe to connect to an AI agent?

Glimind scanned all 47 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.
