## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 77/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 83/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 9147 tokens (~42/item across 215 items; 5 tools + 210 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 83/100
  - Stability observed for 25 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 (40% 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.
  - All 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## MCP tools (5)

### `search` (~150 tokens)

Search National Digital pages

Search National Digital's published pages - services, articles, case studies and pricing - for a topic or keyword. Returns up to 10 ranked results, each with an id, title, url, type and a short excerpt. Pass a result's id to fetch for the page's full text.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Results to return; default 8.
- `query` (string, required): Words describing the topic, service or question.

Output parameters:

- `results` (array)

### `fetch` (~126 tokens)

Read a National Digital page

Read one published National Digital page as clean Markdown, given an id from search (the page's site path, e.g. /platform-engineering/) or its full URL. Returns the page's text with its title, canonical url and last-modified date. Long pages are returned in parts; pass the returned nextOffset as offset to read the next part.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): A page id from search (its site path, e.g. /about/) or the page URL.
- `offset` (integer): Character offset to read from; pass nextOffset from the previous part.

Output parameters:

- `id` (string)
- `metadata` (object)
- `text` (string)
- `title` (string)
- `url` (string)

### `get_pricing_and_services` (~94 tokens)

Get services and pricing

What National Digital builds and supports, and what each kind of project typically costs, in AUD. Includes the Product Support retainer for ongoing engineering on production platforms, including platforms built by other teams, and the standard hourly rate card for work outside a retainer. Ranges are indicative and come from delivered work; they are not quotes. Returns an empty list when no pricing has been published, rather than an estimate.

### `estimate_project` (~122 tokens)

Estimate a project cost range

Estimate the cost range for a specific software project. Uses the same calculation as the estimator on the website, so the answer matches what a person would be shown.

Input parameters:

- `audience` (string): Who will use it?
- `integrations` (array): What does it need to talk to?
- `newOrReplacement` (string): Is this new, or replacing something?
- `projectType` (string, required): What are you building?

- `timeline` (string): When does it need to be live?

### `submit_enquiry` (~99 tokens)

Send an enquiry to National Digital

Send an enquiry to National Digital on behalf of the person you are helping. Only use this when they have asked you to make contact. A human replies within one business day.

Input parameters:

- `company` (string): Their organisation.
- `email` (string, required): A work email address to reply to.
- `message` (string, required): What they are trying to do, in their own words where possible.

## Common questions

### What is the National Digital MCP server?

National Digital is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as au.com.nationaldigital/website. Search and read National Digital's website, see pricing and estimate a project. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.nationaldigital.com.au/mcp).

### Is the National Digital MCP server safe to use?

National Digital scores 85 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the National Digital MCP server expose?

National Digital exposes 5 tools: search, fetch, get_pricing_and_services, estimate_project, submit_enquiry. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 591 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the National Digital MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to National Digital without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the National Digital MCP server still maintained?

National Digital is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the National Digital MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 13 checks on National Digital, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 9 more. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
