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 Usability67
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1314 tokens (~146/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management10
- Stability observed for 3 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage89
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 68% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 9 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 10 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 7 to 10. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 2 days of observed history at the previous scan, 3 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

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 →
check_fake_followers Check fake followers ~150
Estimate how real up to 20 creators' followers are, from public views, engagement, likes and following. Creator ids must come from this user's searches (pass search_id), lookups or saved creators. The first checks each day are free (see get_account), then 5 credits each; creators without enough data cost nothing; results from the last 7 days are reused for free unless fresh=true. This is a rule-based estimate, not platform data; present it that way.

lookup_creators Look up creators by link or handle ~176
Check whether specific creators are in Kolect's database, by profile link or @handle, and get their creator ids (needed for check_fake_followers, get_emails and save_creators). Free. Limits per call and per day depend on the user's plan (no subscription: 10 per call, 200 a day; Light: 30 and 500; Plus and above: 100 and 3,000); the daily limit counts only creators found for the first time, and creators past it come back in skipped as over_daily_limit. Bare @handles need platform. Supports TikTok, Instagram and YouTube only.

Costs the user's credits: 1 credit per 2 creators returned (count 20 = 10 credits); no results cost nothing. Calling again with the same arguments within 15 minutes returns the same results without charging. Results include each creator's id: use it with check_fake_followers, get_emails and save_creators, and the search_id with load_more_results and get_search_results. Values under ai_estimate are AI estimates; say so when you present them.
