Inferred from the transports this listing declares (stdio). A client not listed here hasn’t been ruled out — it just isn’t something Forge can confirm.

Attested build
A verified provenance attestation binds this artifact to the listed repository. Nobody has claimed the listing yet — this proves where the code was built, not who stands behind it.

Statically extracted from the published packagev1.1.1 · 1d ago

Read out of the source npm actually ships, at scan time. The package was never executed. Tools registered dynamically at runtime, or hidden inside bundled or minified code, can be missed — so this is a floor on the tool surface, not a complete census of it.

search_vehiclesSearch the CarVector catalog by year, make, and/or model. Returns matching vehicles with their id and specs. Use this first to resolve a vehicle id, then call get_vehicle or get_recalls with that id.

get_vehicleGet full specifications for one vehicle by its id (an opaque token returned by search_vehicles). Returns engine, drivetrain, body details, a representative image, and recall count.

7 of 7 tools published a description.

Tool names and descriptions are written by the publisher and shown verbatim as inert text. They are the strings an MCP client passes to a model, so Forge scans them for prompt-injection patterns — any finding appears with the security scan above. “Privileged” is a keyword match on the tool name, not an audit of what the tool does: a benign-sounding name can still do anything.

Dependency tree

What one Forge scan resolved from npm metadata on 2026-09-23 — observed resolution, not a publisher declaration.

60 packages resolved · 1 direct · none carrying advisories Resolution stops at depth 4 and 60 packages.

The crawl stopped at the depth-4 limit. Anything below that level was never resolved.

The crawl stopped at the 60-package limit. The rest of the tree was never resolved.

36 more resolved packages are not drawn here (display cap: 24). Every dependency carrying an advisory is drawn regardless of the cap. Full inventory (CycloneDX SBOM)

Declared but not resolved

53 declared dependencies never landed in the tree. They are missing from Forge's resolution, not from the package.

+41 more not listed. The counts by reason above cover all of them.

Not followed: peerDependencies. This tree covers runtime dependencies only, so anything those pull in was never resolved.
