Degraded

One or more channels of this server are currently unreachable; their trust score is decaying and will reach 0 if they stay down.

Trust breakdown (6 categories)

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. How we score →

Endpoint Security94

The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, advertised via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. Discovery is public, which costs nothing: no tool can be invoked without a token. View diagnostics → Pass
HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
The authorisation server offers only Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591), which MCP 2026-07-28 deprecated in favour of Client ID Metadata Documents. View diagnostics → Partial

Transport & Reachability100

Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass

Schema Quality & AI Usability64

100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
AI-judged instruction clarity (poor).Fail
Tool/resource definitions use about 19898 tokens (~46/item across 428 items; 423 tools + 5 resources), lean.Pass
Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

Stability & Change Management13

Stability observed for 4 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial

Tool Coverage77

100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
19% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Structured output schemas are declared (3% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass

Capabilities100

Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
