## 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 2026-10-04.

- **Endpoint Security**: 80/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - 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**: 74/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 868 tokens (~173/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**: 23/100
  - Stability observed for 7 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 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.

List EOR providers

List and filter the 68 employer of record (EOR) providers BestEOR.co tracks, with each one's published monthly fee per employee (or quote-only), countries covered, owned-entity footprint, delivery model and primary-source links. A fee ceiling or coverage minimum only matches providers that publish that figure.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Maximum providers to return (default 20).
- `max_monthly_fee_usd` (number): Only providers whose published starting fee per employee per month is at or below this, in USD. Quote-only providers are excluded when set.
- `min_countries` (integer): Only providers that state EOR coverage in at least this many countries.
- `model` (string): Delivery model: owned-entity (own legal entities only), hybrid (own entities plus partners) or aggregator (local partners).
- `published_price_only` (boolean): Only providers that publish a price.
- `sort_by` (string): fee: cheapest published fee first (default); coverage: most countries first; name: alphabetical.

### `get_eor_provider` (~91 tokens)

Get one EOR provider

Get one EOR provider's published fee (or quote-only terms), EOR country coverage, owned-entity footprint, delivery model, what it is best for, and the primary-source URL behind each figure. Accepts a name or slug, e.g. 'Deel', 'Remote', 'Globalization Partners', 'oyster-hr'.

Input parameters:
