is dangerous, whether it is broken and what is missing. code-guardian answers that from the source alone, in one

A tool error (a missing `path`, a bad `top`) comes back as a tool result with `isError: true` and a one-line message,
|
|
804
|
+
never as a crash of the server. A protocol error is a JSON-RPC error and the server keeps reading: unparseable text
|
|
805
|
+
is `-32700`, a line that is valid JSON but not an object is `-32600`, and an unknown method is `-32601` (so a client
|
|
806
|
+
probing for methods this server does not have, `server/discover` for instance, can fall back). Replies are compact
|
|
807
|
+
JSON — no indentation, because a model reads them. The MCP tools do not expose the CLI's `--online` or `--history`;
|
|
808
|
+
use the CLI for those.
|
|
809
|

|
|

|

The five tool definitions are sent on **every** request, so their size is a budget, not an afterthought:
|
|
811
|
+
`tests/test_tools_list_budget.py` starts the real server, measures `tools/list` the way the project's own audit does
|
|
812
|
+
and fails over 1,300 tokens. Measure it yourself with that test.

## Troubleshooting

| `path does not exist: ...` in a tool result with `isError: true` | The MCP server resolved your path relative to **its own** working directory, which is wherever the client launched it, not your project. | Pass an absolute path, or set the server's working directory in the client config. |
|
|
890
|
+
| `status: INVALID (no Python files and no manifests to judge)`, `no grade`, exit code `3` | There was nothing to analyse: no Python source and no manifest. Usually the wrong directory, or a path that is only build output. | Point it at the repository root. Exit 3 means "this scan cannot be trusted", not "this repo is bad". |

| `entry_points must be a list of strings`, exit code `2` | The goal contract has the wrong shape: `entry_points`, `keep` and `exclude` are TOML arrays of strings. | Fix the `.goal.toml`. `code-guardian init` writes a valid one to start from. |

- **Fixture repos** (`tests/fixtures/`): a clean library, a risky repo that trips every Safe scanner (its key-shaped

strings are generated at test time by `tests/make_risky.py`, never committed), broken and weakly tested packages,
|
|
924

an orphan repo, a supply-chain repo and two Complete repos. Their scores are asserted exactly.

the code by `tests/test_readme_sync.py` and `tests/test_tool_docs.py`.
|

- **The MCP server over real stdio** (`tests/test_mcp.py`, `tests/test_tool_annotations.py`): the tools, the

+
JSON-RPC error codes, compact replies, and the size of `tools/list` against its budget
|
|
932
|
+
(`tests/test_tools_list_budget.py`). `--explain` runs against a stub model on loopback
|
|
933
|
+
(`tests/test_explain.py`).
|
|
934
|

- **It scans itself:** `tests/test_self_scan.py` requires grade A, Safe 100 and no dead code.

`tools/calibrate.py`).

- **No secret reaches the output** (`tests/test_egress_redaction.py`, `tests/test_locations_redact.py`): key
|
|
938
|
+
shapes, email addresses and the credentials a URL can carry are masked everywhere, and the fingerprints a
|
|
939
|
+
baseline stores are unaffected by that masking.
|
|

- **CI** ([ci.yml](.github/workflows/ci.yml)): the suite on Ubuntu, Windows and macOS (Python 3.11) and on Ubuntu
|

(Python 3.12 and 3.13); the built wheel installed in a clean venv and run against the risky fixture; SARIF

validated against the official 2.1.0 schema; the GitHub Action and the pre-commit hook run from the checkout.

## Credits
|

|
|
947
|
+
- The finding shape, the MCP stdio server, the test conftest and the privacy workflow are adapted from
|
|
948
|
+
[stack-guardian](https://github.com/LuminariSoftwares/stack-guardian) (MIT, same author), so the guardian family
|
|
949
|
+
reads alike.
|
|
950
|

- Output follows the [SARIF 2.1.0](https://docs.oasis-open.org/sarif/sarif/v2.1.0/sarif-v2.1.0.html) standard and
|
|
951
|
+
the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) specification.
