MCP Tool-Poisoning & Prompt-Injection Manifest Scanner

A tool's description is read by the model but rarely by the user — which makes it the ideal place to hide instructions. This scanner flags tool-poisoning and prompt-injection smells in a description or manifest: instruction overrides, hidden zero-width unicode, role-play framing, model-directed directives, tool-shadowing, and exfiltration hints. It maps to OWASP ASI01 — Agent Goal Hijack.

⚠ This is a heuristic signal generator, not a verdict. A flag means "a human should read this line," not "this is malicious." Legitimate descriptions can trip patterns; review in context.
