Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 71 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name com.clawhard/swatch.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 4 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-11-25. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 71 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 71 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    8 of 8 parameters have a description (100%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Fail
    Website matches publisher

    The website host does not match the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

    Updated 2026-11-09T13:49:20.805363Z, within 180 days.

Capabilities

Tools 4

swatch_check_contrast

Use when the user asks whether a color combination is readable or accessible, passes WCAG AA or AAA, or has enough contrast (text on a background, button, badge, link color), or what a color is in another format. Returns the exact contrast ratio, pass or fail for normal text, large text and UI components at AA and AAA, the APCA lightness contrast and a plain note. Colors can be hex, rgb(), hsl() or CSS names. Example: {"foreground": "#777777", "background": "#ffffff"}. Also returns each color in hex, rgb, hsl and oklch with its nearest CSS name.

Discovered
swatch_check_pairs

Use when the user has a whole design system, theme or stylesheet and wants every text and background pair checked for accessibility in one go. Takes up to 50 pairs and returns the ratio and AA and AAA results for each, with a count of failures. Example: {"pairs": [{"foreground": "#777", "background": "#fff", "label": "muted text"}, {"foreground": "#fff", "background": "#ff5a1f", "label": "button"}]}.

Discovered
swatch_fix_contrast

Use when a color pair fails contrast and the user wants the smallest change that makes it pass, such as "make this gray text accessible without changing the look". Returns the closest text color on that background that reaches the target (AA, AAA, AA-large or ui), and separately the closest background, keeping the hue. Example: {"foreground": "#777777", "background": "#ffffff", "target": "AA"}. Returns already_passes if nothing needs to change.

Discovered
swatch_make_scale

Use when the user asks for a palette, shades, tints, a design-token scale or a Tailwind-style 50 to 950 ramp from a brand color. Returns 11 steps that keep the hue, with the hex, contrast on white and on black, and the best text color for each step. Example: {"color": "#ff5a1f", "name": "brand"}.
