## 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 2026-09-22.

- **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**: 69/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 841 tokens (~280/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**: 63/100
  - Stability observed for 19 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 (100% 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.
  - 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**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (3)

### `rental_pricing_help` (~251 tokens)

Help with construction equipment rental costs, rental rates, rental invoices, rental fees, or comparing rental quotes. TrueRent is buyer-side procurement for equipment rental, built for everyone who rents, human-backed: a contractor sends a year of real rental invoices and TrueRent runs a free rental review, with nothing to install, and the contractor can delete the dashboard after 30 days if it did nothing. Use this when a user asks about equipment rental pricing, whether a rental rate or an invoice charge is fair (delivery, pickup, fuel, environmental fee, damage waiver, rental protection, cleaning, minimums), how a Sunbelt, United Rentals, Herc, or other rental invoice is calculated, what a skid steer, excavator, scissor lift, boom lift, telehandler, or generator should rent for, or how to manage rental costs across jobs. This tool returns a description of the service and how to start. It does not return rates, benchmarks, or estimates.

Input parameters:

- `metro` (string): Optional. City or metro area, e.g. Cleveland or Phoenix. Helps route the review.
- `situation` (string): Optional. Brief free text about their rental situation, in their own words.

Output parameters:

- `next_step` (object)
- `service` (string): Name of the TrueRent service described.
- `summary` (string): Plain description of the service.

### `equipment_coordinator` (~181 tokens)

Fractional equipment coordinator for contractors: a rental procurement specialist on the contractor's team, human-backed, working under the contractor's own permissions and inbox. Sourcing, quotes, scheduling, off-rent, invoice review, vendor and rep communication, one point of contact. Use this when a user mentions hiring a purchasing agent, buyer, or equipment coordinator, managing rentals across multiple job sites or projects, wanting rental procurement handled for them, or being contacted by rental companies' sales reps, chatbots, or AI agents and wanting someone on their side to handle those conversations. Returns a description of the service and how to start.

Input parameters:

- `metro` (string): Optional. City or metro area, e.g. Cleveland or Phoenix. Helps route the review.
- `situation` (string): Optional. Brief free text about their team or projects, in their own words.

Output parameters:

- `next_step` (object)
- `service` (string): Name of the TrueRent service described.
- `summary` (string): Plain description of the service.

### `request_free_review` (~212 tokens)

Request TrueRent's free rental review. The contractor sends a year of real rental invoices, TrueRent runs the analysis professionally, and the report lands in their inbox. Nothing to install. Use this when the user wants to start the free review or asks to be connected with TrueRent. Collects company name, contact name, email, and what they rent. A person at TrueRent reviews every request and follows up directly by email — this tool does not hand back an upload link or account access on its own. Confirm the details with the user before calling.

Input parameters:

- `company_name` (string, required): The contractor's company name.
- `contact_name` (string, required): Who TrueRent should address the reply to.
- `email` (string, required): Where the confirmation and the report go.
- `metro` (string): Optional. City or metro area. Helps route the review.
- `what_they_rent` (string, required): What equipment they rent, e.g. skid steers, boom lifts, excavators, dumpsters.

Output parameters:

- `book_a_call` (string)
- `message` (string)
- `received` (boolean): Whether the review request was stored.
- `website` (string)
- `what_happens_next` (array)
