## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 46/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 2 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - 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**: 43/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 2823 tokens (~1411/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 3 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).

### `google_flights_search` (~1751 tokens)

Search Google Flights (SerpAPI)

Search Google Flights live via SerpAPI. Returns best_flights and other_flights (each with legs, airlines, times, duration, layovers, price and carbon emissions), plus price_insights and airport info. Supports round trip (type=1, needs return_date), one way (type=2) and multi-city (type=3 via multi_city_json). Two-step flows: pass a departure_token from a prior result to get the returning flights / next leg, or a booking_token to get booking options — re-send the original search params alongside either token. Prices are in `currency` (default USD). IDs are AIRPORT codes, never city/metro codes: TYO, NYC, LON, PAR, MIL, ROM, OSA, CHI, WAS return NO results (live-verified) — send the airports instead (TYO → 'HND,NRT'; NYC → 'JFK,EWR,LGA'; LON → 'LHR,LGW,STN,LTN'; PAR → 'CDG,ORY'; MIL → 'MXP,LIN,BGY'; ROM → 'FCO,CIA') or the city's Google kgmid (e.g. '/m/07dfk' for Tokyo). Result shape: { note?, source, fetchedAt, query, search_metadata: { google_flights_url }, search_parameters, best_flights: [...], other_flights: [...], price_insights, airports } — the two itinerary lists are `best_flights` and `other_flights` (there is no `flights` or `deals` key at the top level, and an itinerary is never a bare flight). Each itinerary: { flights: [{ departure_airport: { name, id, time }, arrival_airport: { name, id, time }, duration, airplane, airline, airline_logo, travel_class, flight_number, legroom, extensions }], layovers: [{ duration, name, id, overnight }], total_duration, carbon_emissions, price, type, airline_logo, departure_token, booking_token } — `price` is the whole-itinerary price in `currency`, `duration`/`total_duration` are minutes, and the per-leg times are local 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM' strings. Feed `departure_token` back for the return leg and `booking_token` for booking options. A top-level `note` appears only when stops=1 found no nonstop flight and the server retried without the stop filter: the itineraries are then connecting flights, and their tokens need the s…

### `google_flights_deals_search` (~968 tokens)

Search Google Flights Deals (SerpAPI)

Discover cheap flight destinations from an origin via SerpAPI's Google Flights Deals engine (google_flights_deals). Unlike google_flights_search there is no arrival_id — the engine explores destinations for you — and there are no pagination or navigation tokens. Dates accept a single YYYY-MM-DD or a 'start,end' range (e.g. '2026-06-27,2026-07-03') to widen the window. Supports round trip (type=1, needs return_date) and one way (type=2). Prices are in `currency` (default USD). Result shape: { source, fetchedAt, query, search_metadata, search_parameters, departure_informations, deals: [...] } — the list key is `deals` (there are no best_flights/other_flights here). Each deal: { destination_id, name, country, price, average_price, discount_percentage, flight_link, serpapi_flight_link, thumbnail, outbound_date, return_date, departure_airport_code, arrival_airport_code, flight_duration, stops, airline, airline_code, description, highlights }. The dates are `outbound_date` / `return_date` (YYYY-MM-DD) — the live engine returns those, not the `start_date`/`end_date` of SerpAPI's docs — and a deal carries NO departure or return time.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer): Number of adults. Default 1.
- `children` (integer): Number of children. Default 0.
- `currency` (string): Currency of returned prices (ISO code, e.g. 'USD', 'EUR'). Default USD.
- `departure_id` (string): Departure AIRPORT IATA code(s) (3-letter, uppercase, e.g. 'WAW' or 'WAW,WMI') or a Google location kgmid (/m/… or /g/…). Comma-separate multiple. NOT a city/metro code (NYC, LON, PAR return no result…

- `outbound_date` (string): Outbound date as a single YYYY-MM-DD, or a 'start,end' range (e.g. '2026-06-27,2026-07-03') to search a window.
- `return_date` (string): Return date as a single YYYY-MM-DD, or a 'start,end' range. Required when type=1 (round trip). When outbound_date is a range it must be a 'start,end' range too (or drop it and use trip_length/travel_…
- `stops` (integer): Max stops: 0 = any (default), 1 = nonstop only, 2 = 1 stop or fewer, 3 = 2 stops or fewer.
