Exposure: Limited
Runs commands or loads code on your machine, but does not reach secrets or other agents.
What this server can reach, from a static read of the shipped code. Nothing was executed and nothing here is a verdict: a browser tool has to run commands and an API wrapper has to call its API. Decide what fits your setup.

Documented tools (16)
From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.

audit_public_webpage
Fetch one authorized public HTML page and run the combined HTML, SEO/accessibility-signal, and JSON-LD syntax audit. Link checks are optional.

Audit supplied HTML for covered on-page SEO and accessibility signals.
check_broken_links
Check up to 20 authorized public links extracted from supplied HTML.
