What to fix (2)

26 tool name(s) contain "." or exceed 64 characters, which OpenAI-compatible function calling rejects (^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,64}$).

Use "_" or "-" instead of "." and keep names to 64 characters, so clients built on OpenAI-style tool calling don't have to rename (or drop) them. How to fix →

Tools: audio.get, bible.book, bible.books, bible.chapter, bible.search.semantic and 21 more

In the last 30 days: 0 tool(s) removed and 21 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 →

Is the Urantia Papers MCP server safe to connect to an AI agent?

Glimind scanned all 26 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.
