## 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 2026-11-07.

- **Endpoint Security**: 83/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 67/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1879 tokens (~134/item across 14 items; 14 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **Tool Coverage**: 92/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 77% 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 14 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 15 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).

Shows the saving with actual data.

Input parameters:

- `actual_see` (number): Producer's actual specific embedded emissions, tCO2e/t (verified), instead of the default value.

## Common questions

### What is the EcoCheck MCP server?

EcoCheck is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as ai.ecocheck/ecocheck. Vietnam GHG inventory obligation checker, 2026 regulations, CBAM and ESG articles (read-only). This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://ecocheck.ai/mcp).

### Is the EcoCheck MCP server safe to use?

EcoCheck scores 87 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the EcoCheck MCP server expose?

EcoCheck exposes 14 tools: check_ghg_inventory_obligation, get_ghg_regulations, cbam_scope_check, cbam_default_value, estimate_cbam_cost, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,668 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the EcoCheck MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to EcoCheck without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the EcoCheck MCP server still maintained?

EcoCheck is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 7 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the EcoCheck MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 13 checks on EcoCheck, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 9 more. 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.
