## 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 2026-10-18.

- **Endpoint Security**: 46/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 4 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - 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**: 76/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 366 tokens (~91/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 50/100
  - Stability observed for 15 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).
  - 80% 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**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (4)

### `health_check` (~33 tokens)

Report whether this service is up and which version answered. Use it to confirm the endpoint is reachable before running a real job.

### `get_rates` (~56 tokens)

Return the Dubai (UAE) rate card this service computes with: RTA taxi minimum fares, Salik toll rates by time window, and the published monthly fuel prices. Every rate carries its source URL and the date it was read.

### `compute_cost` (~239 tokens)

Compute one Dubai cost from published rates. kind=taxi_minimum (RTA minimum fare), salik_monthly (toll cost for a commute), fuel_tank (cost to fill a tank), fuel_per_km (fuel cost for a distance). Deterministic arithmetic only - no AI, and unpublished values are returned as not_published rather than guessed.

Input parameters:

- `crossings_per_day` (number): salik_monthly: charged crossings per day
- `days_per_month` (number): salik_monthly: days per month (default 30)
- `fuel` (string)
- `fuel_l_per_100km` (number): fuel_per_km: consumption
- `gates_per_crossing` (number): salik_monthly: gates passed per crossing (default 2)
- `kind` (string, required)
- `km` (number): fuel_per_km: distance
- `mode` (string): taxi_minimum: road pickup or e-hail
- `tank_litres` (number): fuel_tank: tank size in litres
- `window` (string): salik_monthly: time window

### `list_sources` (~38 tokens)

List the primary sources behind this service’s rates, with the URL and the date each was read. Use it before quoting a number to a user.
