> hardened-mcp-server — jkelly-dev1-hardened-mcp-server. Use this tool when you need to evaluate the effectiveness of hashing tool definitions in detecting unauthorized changes, particularly in scenarios where approval-dialog-based pins may be insufficient. It measures policy compliance across field sets and canonicalization methods, providing insights into the trade-offs between detection accuracy and false alarm rates. Ideal for use cases requiring robust change detection and policy evaluation, such as security auditing and compliance monitoring.
