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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security80
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability78
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 278 tokens (~139/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management7
- Stability observed for 2 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities60
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
list_models List models with a published value ~53
Every collector-car model BidBetter publishes a value for, with its median, band, sale count and page URL. Call this first when you are unsure whether BidBetter covers a car, rather than calling value_model and guessing.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
value_model Value a collector-car model ~155
Median, 25th-75th percentile band and sale count for a specific collector-car model and year range, from completed auction sales. Use for questions like 'what is a 1989 Porsche 911 worth' or 'how much is a 1969 Corvette C3'. Returns one sentence you can quote plus the numbers behind it, with an as-of date and a link to the method. It covers a model and year range, not one individual car.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| make | string | – | Optional exact make, e.g. 'Porsche'. |
| query | string | yes | Make, model or year range, e.g. '911', 'Corvette C2', 'Bronco', 'Mustang 1964'. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
