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.

Tools

No tool declarations found in the source3mo ago

Forge read 0 source files from the published package tarball and matched no MCP tool registrations. Extraction is pattern-based over shipped source: a server that builds its tool list at runtime, or that ships only bundled or minified code, registers nothing this can see. Treat it as “not detected”, not as “exposes none”.

No dependency coverage

Forge's dependency resolver reads npm metadata only, so this PyPI package has no resolved tree. That is a gap in coverage, not a clean bill of health.
