## Quality 74/100 (needs work)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-11-25; 2026-07-28 not supported, older versions are deprecated until 2027-07-28
- n/a `protocol.stateless`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- n/a `protocol.list_ttl`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers

### authorization: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `auth.prm`, `auth.as_metadata`, `auth.cimd`: no remote uses OAuth
- n/a `auth.secret_in_url`: no templated URL

### tool hygiene: 86 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- pass `tools.description_length`: descriptions are concise
- pass `tools.schemas`: every tool has an object input schema
- pass `tools.annotations`: 5 of 5 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: motion_catalog (destructiveHint, idempotentHint); motion_validate (destructiveHint, idempotentHint); motion_compile (destructiveHint, idempotentHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 934 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 50 (weight 15)

- pass `stability.changes`: 3 tool changes in 30 days
- fail `stability.rug_pull`: 3 tools kept their name but changed most of their description in 30 days; review before trusting them

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: deps.dev does not know motionspec@1.2.10

- tools: 5, about 934 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 74812ac44a7640fa37c11608b318e889
- tools last changed: 2026-10-09T18:33:21.785Z
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/io.github.MasterPlayspots/motionspec.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/io.github.MasterPlayspots/motionspec)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-09 `motion_stats` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). Summary of routing/compile telemetry (counts per outcome). Escalation clusters indicate which new primitive the catalog needs next.
  - after: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). This unauthenticated call returns access information only; it does not compile code, fetch URLs, run an audit or read usage data. Arguments are optional and unused. Returns isError:true with structuredContent {ok:false, error:'PAYWALL', tool, upgrade} and text guidance. To use motion_stats on the hosted endpoint, connect with an x-motionspec-key header. Read local telemetry for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion stats' (MIT). This reads this machine's local activity, not hosted usage.
- 2026-10-09 `motion_audit` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). Static motion-a11y checker: fetches a URL's HTML + linked stylesheets and scans the CSS for (1) animation/transition that moves without an effective (cascade-aware) prefers-reduced-motion guard, (2) animated non-transform/opacity properties, (3) infinite animations with no pause path, (4) <marquee>/autoplay >5s. Colour/opacity-only transitions are not motion (WCAG 2.3.3). Same engine and scoring as the free site check at motionspec.dev/motion-check. Returns {ok, score|null, status, findings, groups, summary, badge, disclosures, coverage, markdown}; pages without CSS motion return status 'not-measurable' with score null (runtime motion such as WAAPI/GSAP/WebGL is not audited); loading indicators (spinners, skeletons) are reported as 'review', not as violations. A clean, measurable page earns the badge 'reduced-motion-safe'. Does network I/O (openWorldHint).
  - after: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). This unauthenticated call returns access information only; it does not compile code, fetch URLs, run an audit or read usage data. Arguments are optional and unused. Returns isError:true with structuredContent {ok:false, error:'PAYWALL', tool, upgrade} and text guidance. To use motion_audit on the hosted endpoint, connect with an x-motionspec-key header. Run the static URL audit locally for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion audit <url> --json' (MIT).
- 2026-10-09 `motion_compile` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp); runs locally for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion compile <spec.json>' (MIT). Validates (fail-closed) and deterministically compiles a MotionSpec into production-ready vanilla-GSAP JavaScript and CSS, with enforced prefers-reduced-motion fallbacks and a performance-budget report. Same spec always yields identical code. Returns {ok, js, css, report} or {ok:false, errors}.
  - after: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). This unauthenticated call returns access information only; it does not compile code, fetch URLs, run an audit or read usage data. Arguments are optional and unused. Returns isError:true with structuredContent {ok:false, error:'PAYWALL', tool, upgrade} and text guidance. To use motion_compile on the hosted endpoint, connect with an x-motionspec-key header. motion_compile runs locally for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion compile <spec.json>' (MIT).

## Packages

- npm motionspec@1.2.10

## Tools (5)

- `motion_audit`: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). This unauthenticated call returns access information only; it does not compile code, fetch URLs, run an audit or read usage data. Arguments are optional and unused. Returns isError:true with structuredContent {ok:false, error:'PAYWALL', tool, upgrade} and text guidance. To use motion_audit on the hosted endpoint, connect with an x-motionspec-key header. Run the static URL audit locally for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion audit <url> --json' (MIT).
- `motion_catalog`: Returns the catalog of verified motion primitives (names, purpose, parameter schemas, defaults) plus the authoring rules for writing a MotionSpec. Call this FIRST, then write the spec yourself and validate it with motion_validate (motion_compile runs in the CLI or with a key on the hosted endpoint). Free motion check: motionspec.dev/motion-check · keys for the hosted endpoint: motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp.
- `motion_compile`: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). This unauthenticated call returns access information only; it does not compile code, fetch URLs, run an audit or read usage data. Arguments are optional and unused. Returns isError:true with structuredContent {ok:false, error:'PAYWALL', tool, upgrade} and text guidance. To use motion_compile on the hosted endpoint, connect with an x-motionspec-key header. motion_compile runs locally for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion compile <spec.json>' (MIT).
- `motion_stats`: Requires a Dev Key ($39/mo) or Agency plan ($249/mo) on the hosted endpoint (motionspec.dev/pricing?src=mcp). This unauthenticated call returns access information only; it does not compile code, fetch URLs, run an audit or read usage data. Arguments are optional and unused. Returns isError:true with structuredContent {ok:false, error:'PAYWALL', tool, upgrade} and text guidance. To use motion_stats on the hosted endpoint, connect with an x-motionspec-key header. Read local telemetry for free with 'npx -p motionspec motion stats' (MIT). This reads this machine's local activity, not hosted usage.
- `motion_validate`: Checks a MotionSpec against the schema, the primitive allow-list, parameter bounds and injection rules. Fail-closed: returns ok=false with precise errors. Returns {ok, errors, warnings, deprecations, catalogVersion}. IMPORTANT: warnings[] carries the WCAG 2.2.2 / reduced-motion findings and can be non-empty while ok=true — a spec that compiles is not automatically accessible. Use to pre-check a spec before compiling.
