## 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 3 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**: 64/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 730 tokens (~243/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**: 3/100
  - Stability observed for 1 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.
- **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 current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (3)

### `get_property_info` (~65 tokens)

Get property info

Read-only. Returns Portmans Motor Lodge property details and room types by merging Channex with the lodge config (amenities, policies, check-in and check-out, pool season). Unknown fields are marked TODO. Does not create a booking and does not accept payment card data.

### `check_availability` (~312 tokens)

Check availability

Read-only. Returns room types that fit the stay, with nightly and total NZD rates from public rate plans only. The restrictions rate is for the rate plan's primary occupancy, not the room type's default occupancy. Each adult or child aged 1+ above that base adds the rate plan's extra-person amount per night. Infants under 1 are not counted and are not charged. By default a public title starts with "BAR - "; a non-empty explicit rate-plan id list in config overrides that. A room with no public plan for the stay is no_public_rate. Respects stop_sell, closed_to_arrival, min_stay_arrival, and occupancy. Dates are ISO dates in Pacific/Auckland, check-out must be after check-in, the stay cannot exceed 30 nights, and check-in cannot be in the past. Does not create a booking and does not accept payment card data.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer, required): Number of adults, from 1 to 20.
- `check_in` (string, required): Check-in date YYYY-MM-DD, interpreted in Pacific/Auckland.
- `check_out` (string, required): Check-out date YYYY-MM-DD. Must be after check-in. Maximum 30 nights.
- `children` (integer, required): Number of children aged 1 or over, from 0 to 20. Do not count infants under 1 here.
- `infants` (integer): Infants under 1 year. They do not count toward occupancy. One cot is available to hire.

### `get_booking_link` (~199 tokens)

Get booking link

Builds a Channex booking-page URL the guest opens themselves. Does not create a booking and does not accept payment card data. Dates, guests and currency prefill on the booking page.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer, required): Number of adults, from 1 to 20.
- `check_in` (string, required): Check-in date YYYY-MM-DD, interpreted in Pacific/Auckland.
- `check_out` (string, required): Check-out date YYYY-MM-DD. Must be after check-in. Maximum 30 nights.
- `children` (integer, required): Number of children aged 1 or over, from 0 to 20. Do not count infants under 1 here.
- `infants` (integer): Infants under 1 year. They do not count toward occupancy. One cot is available to hire.
- `room_type` (string): Optional room type title or id. Copied into the roomType parameter, which is not confirmed to filter the booking page.
