## 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 2026-11-05.

- **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. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation.
  - 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**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1218 tokens (~174/item across 7 items; 7 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 80/100
  - Stability observed for 24 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 98/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 93% 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 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 8 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).

## MCP tools (7)

### `search_programs` (~203 tokens)

Search affiliate program terms

Look up affiliate, referral and partner program terms. Use when someone asks which companies or tools have an affiliate program, which pay recurring commission, which have the longest cookie window or lowest payout minimum, or wants to compare affiliate programs in a category such as hosting, email or CRM. Returns commission, recurring or one-time, cookie window, minimum payout, payout method and network, each with the vendor page it was read from and the date it was read.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): A category, e.g. "hosting" or "email".
- `limit` (integer)
- `min_cookie_days` (integer): Only programs whose cookie window is at least this many days (or never expires).
- `query` (string): Words in the program or category name, e.g. "supabase" or "email". Leave out to search everything.
- `recurring` (boolean): true: only programs that pay on renewals. false: only one-time.

### `get_program` (~141 tokens)

Get one program's terms

Get one tool's affiliate, referral or partner program terms. Use when someone asks about a specific program: "what does beehiiv's affiliate program pay", "does Hunter pay recurring commission", "how long is Hostinger's affiliate cookie", "what is Zyte's minimum payout". `status` is "listed" (commission, recurring or one-time, cookie window, minimum payout, payout method, network and notes, with the vendor page each figure was read from and the date) or "absent" (not listed: offer to submit it with submit_program, if the person agrees).

Input parameters:

- `name` (string, required): The product or program name.

### `list_categories` (~27 tokens)

List categories

The categories in the directory, with how many programs each holds and the page that lists them.

### `submit_program` (~193 tokens)

Submit a program to the directory

Submit an affiliate, referral or partner program's page to be checked and added to the directory, free. Use only when the person asks for it or agrees, typically after get_program says a program is absent. Send the URL of the vendor's own program page; a person reads the terms off that page, and anything sent as figures is only checked against it, never published. Sending the same URL again returns what happened to it. An email address, only if the person gives one, is used to tell them the outcome.

Input parameters:

- `email` (string): The person's email, only if they want to hear the outcome. Ask first.
- `name` (string): The product name.
- `notes` (string): Anything already known about the terms. Checked against the page, never published.
- `url` (string, required): The vendor's own affiliate program page, e.g. https://example.com/affiliates.

### `featured_availability` (~143 tokens)

See featured spots by category

Featured placements on affiliateprogramterms.com: a company's affiliate program shown at the top of its category page and under its category on the home page, labelled "Featured", 7d: 7 days for $27, 30d: 30 days for $72, 5 per category, never renewing. Returns, per category, how many spots are open and when the next opens. Use when someone wants to promote their affiliate program to people comparing programs, or asks what featuring costs. Listing itself is free and never sold; featuring changes no figure and no order.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): A category, e.g. "seo" or "hosting".

### `featured_prepare_card` (~197 tokens)

Prepare a featured card

Prepare a featured placement for a company's own affiliate program. Give the program's page; returns whether the program is listed (and in which category: featuring is only in that one), the likeliest category from the company's website if it is not listed (pass category to choose another), a draft card from the company's website (name up to 32 characters, one line up to 90, no figures and no web addresses), and a link where the person checks it and pays. Nothing is booked or charged until they pay there. Never pay, and never enter payment details: pass the link to the person.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): A category, e.g. "seo" or "hosting".
- `plan` (string): 7d: 7 days for $27, 30d: 30 days for $72.
- `program_url` (string, required): The company's own affiliate, referral or partner program page.

### `featured_check_booking` (~73 tokens)

Check a featured booking

Check a featured booking by the id given after payment (FT- followed by 6 letters and digits): whether it is scheduled, active, expired or removed, its category, and when it starts and ends.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): The booking id, e.g. FT-7K2Q9X.
