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 Usability64
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 900 tokens (~225/item across 4 items; 4 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
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 5 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
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.

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 3 to 7. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 1 days of observed history at the previous scan, 2 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 →
book Get a checkout link ~89
Checks a quote_id is still available and returns a checkout_url for the traveler to open. The traveler signs in, reviews the price, house rules and cancellation policy, and pays there; this tool reserves nothing and charges nothing by itself. It accepts no card or payment details: a request containing them is refused.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| quote_id | string | yes | The quote_id from get_quote. Quotes last 15 minutes |

find_cheaper Find a cheaper stay ~331
Given an Airbnb listing URL and trip dates, finds the same home bookable somewhere else (on HomeShared, where guests pay no service fee, or on a host's own booking site) and returns each match with its all-in total including fees and taxes, how confident the match is, a link, and when the price was checked, plus the savings against the Airbnb total for the same nights when that total is known (airbnb_total, or Airbnb's own prices for homes that copy them). Reads only that one public Airbnb listing page; it doesn't search Airbnb. If the home isn't listed anywhere else it returns no offers and says so.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| adults | integer | yes | Guests aged 13 or older |
| airbnb_total | number | – | Optional: the total in USD that Airbnb shows at checkout for these dates and guests. Savings are measured against it when given. Without it, savings are reported only for homes whose prices are copie… |
| airbnb_url | string | yes | The Airbnb listing link, e.g. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/12345678 |
| check_in | string | yes | Check-in date, YYYY-MM-DD |
| check_out | string | yes | Check-out date (the morning the traveler leaves), YYYY-MM-DD |
| children | integer | – | Guests aged 2-12. Default 0 |
| infants | integer | – | Guests under 2; they don't count toward capacity. Default 0 |
| pets | integer | – | Pets (service animals don't count). Default 0 |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_quote Get a quote ~180
Gets a fresh, itemized all-in price and availability for one offer_id (from find_cheaper or search_stays) for specific dates and guests. Returns a quote_id that book needs; it stays valid for 15 minutes.

search_stays Search stays ~252

|---|---|---|---|
| adults | integer | yes | Guests aged 13 or older |
