What to fix (5)

7 of 7 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: check_fax_status, get_account_balance, list_sent_faxes, list_supported_formats, purchase_credits and 2 more

2 tool(s) look like they change state (create/send/delete/pay…) but declare no destructiveHint.

Set annotations {"readOnlyHint": false, "destructiveHint": true|false, "idempotentHint": …}. Clients use these to ask the user before a side effect and to auto-approve safe reads. How to fix →

Tools: send_fax, send_free_fax

Negotiates MCP 2024-11-05. 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 →

Handshake + tools/list takes ~1,637 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.

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 Gotfreefax MCP server safe to connect to an AI agent?

Glimind scanned all 7 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.
