## 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 2026-08-03.

- **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**: 69/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 390 tokens (~390/item across 1 items; 1 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 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.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (1)

### `search` (~390 tokens)

Searches live flight offers between an origin and destination for given travel dates. Supports one-way (omit return_date) and round-trip searches with flexible passenger counts and cabin class. Use this when the user wants to compare available flights, airlines, prices, layovers, or booking links for a specific route. Do not use it for rental cars, hotels, trains, or general travel planning unless the user has flight-search intent. The tool queries external flight aggregator APIs in real time, returns price-ranked results grouped by number of stops, and includes affiliate booking links. Results and booking links are valid for approximately 15 minutes due to real-time airline pricing. It does not book flights, modify reservations, charge users, or store user data.

- `adults` (integer): Number of adult passengers (1-9). Defaults to 1.
- `children` (integer): Number of children aged 2-11 (0-9). Defaults to 0.
