## 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 2026-10-22.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - 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.
  - 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**: 61/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1165 tokens (~291/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 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 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 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).

## Install

### How do I install the AEO Inspector MCP server?

AEO Inspector is a hosted endpoint at https://aeoinspector.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-10-21 (score 70, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 3 to 7. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 1 days of observed history at the previous scan, 2 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

### 2026-10-20 (score 69, 0)

- [security] The server rewrote its instructions, which are the text every model session reads
- [functional regression] Schema quality: 897 → 1165
- [functional improvement] Stability: unverified → 0.03
- [functional] Server version: 2.0.0 → 2.2.0
- [functional] New tool “domain_report”

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (4)

### `pricing` (~37 tokens)

Free. Prices of the paid tools and HTTP endpoints, the payment network (Base) and address. No input, no network request, no payment.

### `scan_site` (~321 tokens)

Deep AEO scan of a website: fetches the homepage as a browser, Googlebot, OAI-SearchBot, GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot and diffs what each gets (JS shells, stale prerender snapshots, cloaking-like gaps), diagnoses Cloudflare AI-bot blocks (dashboard setting + WAF Skip rule), detects Base44/Replit/Lovable, reads robots.txt rules for 21 AI crawlers, crawls up to 9 more pages from the sitemap, validates JSON-LD (Organization, LocalBusiness, Product, FAQPage, Article, SoftwareApplication), checks Wikidata/sameAs entity signals, freshness, question-style headings, TTFB and HTML size, and asks Perplexity one category question. Checks agent files (llms.txt, MCP server card or /mcp, OpenAPI, /.well-known/x402 or a 402 challenge, JSON-LD Offer pricing, Web Bot Auth key directory). Returns the 100-point score, crawlerAccess (score, per-bot outcome), agentReady (score, pass/fail checks with fixes), prioritized fixes, a result_url, a badge_url and a ready-to-paste kit (llms.txt, robots.txt, JSON-LD). Takes 10-25 seconds. Costs $0.05 USDC per call via x402 (payment in _meta["x402/payment"]); invalid input or a failed run returns an error and is not charged.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Website or page URL, e.g. example.com

### `full_report` (~244 tokens)

16-engine AI visibility report: five category questions, each asked 3 times (240 answers), to ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, Meta AI, DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral, GLM, MiniMax, Exa Answer and You.com. Returns per-engine answers, mention rate, citations of the site (own domain in the returned sources), a visibility score, competitor share of mentions (overall and per engine), the sources engines cited, and a report_url. Takes 2-4 minutes. Not charged unless at least 12 of 16 engines answer. Costs $9 USDC per call via x402 (payment in _meta["x402/payment"]); invalid input or a failed run returns an error and is not charged.

Input parameters:

- `brand` (string): Optional: brand name to look for (default: detected from the page)
- `topic` (string): Optional: what the site offers, used in the questions (default: the page's meta description)
- `url` (string, required): Website or page URL, e.g. example.com

### `domain_report` (~187 tokens)

One-domain report: runs the OrionCMD site audit (TLS from CT logs, DNS/DNSSEC/CAA, RDAP expiry, SPF/DMARC/DKIM/MTA-STS, security headers, security.txt) and the AEO Inspector deep scan (AI crawler access, bot-vs-browser diff, agent-ready checks) for one domain. Returns both grades and one merged, priority-sorted fixes list (paste-ready DNS records, registrar steps, robots.txt/llms.txt/JSON-LD) with a shell command to verify each, plus a report_url kept 30 days. Not charged if any part can't run. Costs $2 USDC per call via x402 (payment in _meta["x402/payment"]); invalid input or a failed run returns an error and is not charged.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Website or page URL, e.g. example.com
