What to fix (3)

3 of 3 tool(s) carry no readOnlyHint/destructiveHint annotations.

Annotate read-only tools with {"readOnlyHint": true}. Agents and gateways can then run them without a confirmation prompt, and route around destructive ones. How to fix →

Tools: find_the_cairn, get_services, get_topic

Negotiates MCP 2025-03-26. Structured output, tool output schemas and elicitation arrived in 2025-06-18.

Upgrade the MCP SDK and negotiate 2025-06-18 or newer. How to fix →

No tool declares an outputSchema.

Declare outputSchema and return structuredContent (MCP 2025-06-18+). Agents can then parse results without guessing, and chain tools reliably. How to fix →

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

Glimind scanned all 3 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.
