Worth knowing before you connect it
- 5 tools are described as changing something (generate_from_app, generate_image, generate_video, …): our AI model's reading of the descriptions, not something we tested. We did not call them.
- 2 packages with a critical or high advisory (0 critical, 2 high) in its dependencies (as resolved on 2026-10-24).

What it is
What does this server offer?
Observed inventoryWhat it mainly works on, as our AI model read its tool descriptions: accounts and data in outside web services.
5 of 10 tools are described as changing something (creating, editing, deleting, sending or running).

Each quoted sentence is the first sentence of the publisher’s own description. The kind of tool and the “changes data” mark are our AI model’s reading of that description, not something we tested: two differently worded runs had to agree, otherwise no label is shown, and nobody has checked them by hand. A tool without the “changes data” mark is described as only reading, searching or calculating, or the two runs did not agree. No tool was called. Read the publisher’s full description before relying on it. “Publisher declares” lists the hints the server itself sends with the tool (MCP annotations: read-only, destructive, idempotent, open-world); they are the publisher's claims, not checked by us. Inputs are the parameters in the tool's own input schema: name, declared type, whether it is required, and the first sentence of its description. Read 2026-10-23.
How well are its tools described?
Features #4 and #5
How clearly this server's own tool descriptions say what a tool does, and how consistent its tool list is. The first part is an AI model's yes/no reading of each description; the second part is counted. We do not turn it into a grade.

- Naming
- 9 of 10 names use snake_case
AI reading: easy to mix up
No pair found.
The AI items cover 10 of 10 tools: for a tool where two differently worded runs disagreed, that item is left out. They were not checked by hand, and no tool was called. “Easy to mix up” means two tools whose names or descriptions overlap without saying how they differ; the AI found none. We do not rate whether the tool set is complete or whether side effects are spelled out, because our AI reading of those was not reliable enough.

- The MCP Inspector lists the server's tools, resources and prompts; a tool you call there runs for real.

Does the registry listing match what we found?
Feature #6The registry verifies a package once, when it is published, and does not re-check it. A difference below is about the listing, not a judgement of the publisher.

| Published package can be started | Started and answered | matches | our test · 2026-10-23 |

How each check works · Leaderboards
Common questions about ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp
Answered from the data aboveIs ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp safe to install?
We do not rate servers as safe or unsafe. 6 of its 9 applicable record checks are met (facts from public records, each listed on this page). What the records show: Its source repository opens publicly. Its repository had a push in the last 90 days. The listed version is the latest stable release. The package itself has no known vulnerability (OSV.dev). Its full dependency tree has packages with advisories (2 high; npm audit). 5 of its tools describe changing data (our AI model's reading of the descriptions). These are facts with their sources on this page, not a safety guarantee, and we did not run its tools.
Has ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp been security tested?
Partly. 2 of the 12 checks that apply to it were exercised. We started the package in an isolated sandbox and read what it declares, but this test round was read-only, so its tools were not called. No security verdict is published before verification.
What can ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp do?
It lists 10 tools. In our AI model's reading of their descriptions (two runs had to agree, nobody checked it by hand), they include tools that read or search, control a browser or desktop and generate content. We did not call any tool, so this describes the text, not the behaviour.
Can ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp change or delete data?
5 of its tools say in their description that they create, edit, delete, send or run something (our AI model's reading). We did not call any tool, so we cannot say what actually happens.
Does ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp publish a security policy?
We found no SECURITY.md in its repository (root, .github/ or docs/) or in its owner's .github repository.
Is the listed version current?
Yes. The registry lists 0.2.1, the latest stable release on npm.
Where is the source code of ai.tanvo/tanvo-mcp?
In github.com/tanvoai/tanvo-mcp, which opens publicly.

18 fields
One value per field, each with its source. Fields written by AI models are marked. A field with no value says why.
“Not stated” means the source did not state it; “does not apply” means it does not apply to this kind of server; “our limit” means our own lookup failed. A linked value opens the directory filtered to the same value.
