## 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 2026-09-25.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - 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 5 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 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**: 71/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 711 tokens (~142/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - 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**: 93/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 79% 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 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 6 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.

## MCP tools (5)

### `chercher` (~265 tokens)

Cherche un lieu, un commerce, un artisan, un professionnel de santé, une association ou un événement en France. À appeler pour toute question du type « trouve-moi X près de Y ». Interroge 3 764 277 fiches actives, rangées par CODE NAF de l'INSEE — pas par mots-clés. Accepte aussi un numéro SIRET (14 chiffres) ou SIREN (9). NE REND NI ADRESSE NI TÉLÉPHONE : la granularité s'arrête à la commune.

Input parameters:

- `categorie` (string): Une des 11 catégories. Ne se combine pas avec « q » : le rangement l'emporte sur le texte.
- `commune` (string): Code INSEE (5 caractères). Appeler `commune` pour l'obtenir depuis un nom.
- `departement` (string): Code de département, ex. « 29 »
- `limite` (integer): De 1 à 50 (défaut 20)
- `q` (string): Texte libre, ou un numéro SIRET / SIREN
- `sous_categorie` (string): Ex. « boulange », « kiné », « plombier ». Appeler `catalogue` pour la liste.

### `catalogue` (~64 tokens)

Rend les 11 catégories et leurs sous-catégories, avec le nombre de fiches de chacune. À appeler AVANT `chercher` quand on ne sait pas quel terme employer : les sous-catégories sont un vocabulaire fermé, deviner un nom rend une liste vide.

### `commune` (~85 tokens)

Trouve le code INSEE d'une commune à partir de son nom. À appeler EN PREMIER : `chercher`, `associations` et `missions` attendent un code INSEE, jamais un nom. Attention, un code INSEE n'est pas un code postal (Crozon : 29042 et 29160).

Input parameters:

- `nom` (string, required): Nom de la commune

### `associations` (~117 tokens)

Les associations déclarées d'une commune ou d'un département, avec leur objet social, issues du Répertoire National des Associations. Utile pour « quelle association fait X près de Y » — une question à laquelle aucune autre source ne répond. NE REND PAS DE CONTACT : le RNA n'en publie aucun, délibérément.

Input parameters:

- `commune` (string): Code INSEE
- `departement` (string): Code de département
- `limite` (integer)
- `q` (string): Un mot du nom de l'association

### `missions` (~69 tokens)

Les missions de bénévolat ouvertes, relayées du réseau public API Engagement. Chaque mission porte l'URL de sa source : la candidature se fait chez l'organisateur, jamais ici.

Input parameters:

- `commune` (string): Code INSEE
- `departement` (string)
- `limite` (integer)
