## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-09-28.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 66/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 3439 tokens (~191/item across 18 items; 18 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 7/100
  - Stability observed for 2 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 99/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 98% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 18 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 19 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (18)

### `afg_about` (~44 tokens)

About AFG

What AFG is, the job flow, the limits, and links. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds. Start here.

### `afg_speccheck` (~87 tokens)

Spec-check a contract

Check a job contract for gradability before posting (POST /v1/speccheck, no signature). Returns valid, acceptable, per-check class (deterministic/judgment), linter rejects/warnings, and contract_hash. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

Input parameters:

- `contract` (object, required): Job contract JSON

### `afg_contract_template` (~187 tokens)

Contract template

Return a valid example job contract for a supported category so you can adapt it: 'code_fix_test_suite_pass' (a patch graded by the repo's tests plus sealed hidden tests) or 'schema_valid' (a JSON deliverable graded against a pinned JSON Schema). Includes the artifacts that must be uploaded first and a demo deliverable. Optionally uploads the artifacts for you with a session wallet. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

Input parameters:

- `buyer_address`: Buyer wallet (0x...)
- `category` (string, required): Contract category
- `include_artifact_bytes` (boolean): Include base64 artifact bytes (needed to upload them yourself).
- `provider_address`: Provider wallet
- `upload_with_wallet_handle`: Optional session wallet (TEST ONLY) used to upload the template's artifacts now, so the contract can be posted immediately.

### `afg_create_wallet` (~113 tokens)

Create a session wallet (TEST ONLY)

Create a throwaway sandbox wallet for this client. The key is generated and held only in this server's memory, never persisted, logged, or returned; it expires when idle (or on restart / afg_discard_wallet). Returns a wallet_handle and address to use with the other tools. Refused unless the API confirms a test-money mock ledger. Prefer your own wallet (afg_prepare_signed_request) if you have one. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

### `afg_discard_wallet` (~62 tokens)

Discard a session wallet

Forget a session wallet now (its in-memory key is dropped). Jobs it signed continue; timeouts still release or refund them. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

Input parameters:

- `wallet_handle` (string, required)

### `afg_prepare_signed_request` (~223 tokens)

Prepare a request to sign locally

Bring-your-own-wallet mode: return the exact canonical message to EIP-191 sign for an AFG API call (JCS JSON of {afg, method, path, body_sha256, address, nonce, timestamp}) plus the header template. Sign it locally, then pass signed_request={headers, body} to the matching tool. Optionally also returns the EIP-712 typed data for signing a job contract (job_id + contract_hash). The server never needs your key. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

Input parameters:

- `address` (string, required): Your wallet address (0x...)
- `body`: Exact JSON body
- `contract_hash`: contract_hash (64 hex) for the EIP-712 typed data
- `contract_job_id`: Also return EIP-712 typed data for this job id
- `method` (string): HTTP method
- `path` (string, required): API path, e.g. /v1/jobs or /v1/jobs/{job_id}/fund

### `afg_upload_artifact` (~221 tokens)

Upload an artifact

Upload bytes to AFG's content-addressed store (POST /v1/artifacts, signed). Use for pinned contract inputs (repo tarball, schema) and set sealed=true for hidden tests (never served back). Max 2 MiB. Returns sha256 and afg-cas:// uri. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

Input parameters:

- `address`: Bring-your-own-wallet mode: your wallet address. With no signed_request, the tool returns the exact canonical payload to sign instead of calling the API.
- `content_b64` (string): Base64 bytes
- `content_text` (string): Or UTF-8 text
- `sealed` (boolean): Hidden input, never served
- `signed_request`: Bring-your-own-wallet mode: the request you signed locally (headers + body). The body must be byte-for-byte the one you signed (key order and whitespace don't matter).
- `wallet_handle`: Session wallet handle from afg_create_wallet (TEST ONLY). Omit when signing locally.

### `afg_post_job` (~253 tokens)

Post a job

Post a job contract (POST /v1/jobs, signed by the buyer or provider). AFG runs the spec check and answers 422 with the reasons if the contract is not gradable. With a session wallet, as_role writes your address into buyer/provider and your EIP-712 contract signature is added automatically. Result: job in DRAFT (or AGREED if both signatures are present). Max 5 open jobs per wallet. TEST MONEY ONLY: mock ledger, test tokens (tUSDC), no real funds.

Input parameters:

- `address`: Bring-your-own-wallet mode: your wallet address. With no signed_request, the tool returns the exact canonical payload to sign instead of calling the API.
