Category Maps and Location
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 Security46
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 1 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- 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 Usability50
- AI-judged instruction clarity (fair).Partial
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 358 tokens (~358/item across 1 items; 1 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 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
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 2 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.
- 5 Nov 26 +1
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 →
kayak_search_flights Build a Kayak flight-search deep link ~255
Build a Kayak.com flight-search deep link for a route and dates. Returns the URL only — no prices: Kayak renders fares client-side behind bot protection, so a server-side fetch can't read them. Open deep_link in a browser for live results, or use google_flights_search for parsed fares. Result shape: { source, deep_link, search_url, trip_type, origin, destination, departure_date, return_date, cabin_class, adults, note } — a single object, never a list: there are no fares, flights or offers to read. `deep_link` (identical to `search_url`) is the only useful output; `return_date` is null for a one-way.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| adults | integer | – | Number of adults. Default 1. |
| cabin_class | string | – | Cabin class. Default economy. |
| departure_date | string | yes | Departure date, YYYY-MM-DD. |
| destination | string | yes | Destination airport IATA code (3-letter, e.g. JFK). |
| origin | string | yes | Origin airport IATA code (3-letter, e.g. WAW). |
| return_date | string | – | Return date, YYYY-MM-DD. Omit for one-way. |

How do I install the Kayak MCP server?
Kayak MCP is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.wondel.ai/kayak/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.
