Dead

Every channel of this server has been unreachable for long enough to be marked dead. Its trust score is pinned to 0 and does not recover automatically: even once the server responds again it stays dead until it is manually reinstated.

MCP tools · 8 exposed · ~612 tokens

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 →

What did VerifyMCP test on the Lenny Rachitsky Podcast Transcripts MCP Server server?

VerifyMCP ran 5 checks on Lenny Rachitsky Podcast Transcripts MCP Server, covering TLS certificate, HTTPS, HSTS header, DNSSEC and 1 more. 6 items could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about Lenny Rachitsky Podcast Transcripts MCP Server: Authorization, Schema quality, Stability, Tool coverage and 2 more. 4 categories score 0 for that reason, because we only credit what we can confirm. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
