## 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 2026-10-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - 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**: 80/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 342 tokens (~85/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 60/100
  - Stability observed for 18 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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (4)

### `list_matches` (~93 tokens)

List matches for a date

Matches on one calendar day with their status: upcoming, pending (reading shown, not yet locked) or finished.

Input parameters:

- `date` (string): YYYY-MM-DD. Defaults to today in tz.
- `lang` (string): Language of team and league names.
- `league` (string): League name filter, optional.
- `tz` (string): IANA time zone used to decide which calendar day a match falls on.

### `get_match_analysis` (~78 tokens)

Get outcome probabilities for a match

Home / draw / away probabilities from each available model, the most likely outcome, the confidence, the pre-match favourite, when the reading was locked, and the result with a hit flag once the match has finished.

Input parameters:

- `lang` (string): Language of team and league names.
- `match_id` (string, required): Match id from list_matches.

### `get_match_context` (~62 tokens)

Get the context behind a match

Head-to-head summary, recent form, injuries and suspensions, and schedule density, limited to what is shown publicly on the site.

Input parameters:

- `lang` (string): Language of team and league names.
- `match_id` (string, required): Match id from list_matches.

### `get_open_record` (~109 tokens)

Get the open record

Hits out of matches for the public record, the pre-match favourite and random baselines on the same matches, results by confidence band, and snapshot coverage. Without week_start it covers the whole record; with it, that week only.

Input parameters:

- `lang` (string): Language of team and league names.
- `tz` (string): IANA time zone used to decide which calendar day a match falls on.
- `week_start` (string): YYYY-MM-DD, the Monday of the week. Optional.
