## 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 2026-10-07.

- **Endpoint Security**: 80/100
  - 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.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - 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**: 61/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 841 tokens (~280/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 93/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 75% 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 3 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.

### `land_at` (~337 tokens)

What can I do with this property?

Use when someone asks what they can do with a specific property or address in Austin, TX or Nashville, TN: what it is zoned and what that means, how many homes the lot can take (Austin HOME rules, Texas SB 840 apartments on commercial land), what the zoning ordinance or Nashville Specific Plan says, whether a short-term rental (Airbnb) is allowed, the property tax and flood risk. Takes an address or a latitude and longitude. Returns the answer, the sources, a map link and a printable brief link. For a Nashville or Austin lot, when the paid Lot File is on sale in that city and covers the lot, it also returns lot_file: what the cited file adds (documents read, rules computed for the lot, pending cases) and the link to buy it.

Input parameters:

- `address` (string): Street address, for example '1600 E 6th St' or '1600 Division St, 37203'
- `appraised_value` (number): Appraised value in dollars for the tax estimate (defaults: Austin 550000, Nashville 450000)
- `city` (string, required): "austin" (City of Austin, Texas) or "nashville" (Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee). Other cities are not covered.

- `latitude` (number)
- `longitude` (number)
- `property_class` (string): Nashville only: taxed as a home (25%) or a business (40%); default follows the zoning

Output parameters:

- `flood` (string)
- `lot`: The lot's own records: size (Austin) or land use, building year, street frontage, service district and permit counts (Nashville)
- `lot_file` (object): Nashville and Austin, when the file is on sale in that city and covers the lot's zoning: the paid Lot File for this lot, what it adds to this answer, and where to buy it

- `place` (string|null)
- `point` (object)

- `specific_plan`: Nashville Specific Plan: what its ordinance says
- `status` (string): ok: answered; choose: the address matches more than one place, choices lists them; not_found: no such address; no_zoning: the point is a street, water or outside the city; unsupported_city: not Austi…
- `what_you_can_build` (object): Austin: how many homes the lot can take
- `zoning` (object): The zoning code, what it means, overlays and the ordinance behind it
- `zoning_ordinances`: Austin zoning ordinances covering the point, newest first

### `find_land` (~269 tokens)

Find land that fits

Use when someone wants to find land or lots in Austin or Nashville that fit a need, for example lots where three homes are allowed, commercial land where apartments are allowed without a rezoning, dry industrial land of 5+ acres, zoning where whole-home short-term rentals are permitted, or Specific Plans whose ordinance bans rentals. Takes a ready-made view or a plain-English description of the need. Returns how many zoning areas and acres match, the largest ones, each with a point inside the zoning area, and a map link.

Input parameters:
