## 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 2026-11-06.

- **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. 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.
  - 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**: 76/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1079 tokens (~179/item across 6 items; 5 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 60/100
  - Stability observed for 18 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 94/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 82% 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 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 73/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.
  - Supports UI / widget rendering.

## Changelog

## MCP tools (5)

### `list_items` (~104 tokens)

What can be printed

The items a design can go on: key, name, the blank it is printed on, price per piece, colors, sizes, and the print areas with their sizes in inches. Call this before quoting or when the customer asks what is available. Prices are per piece in US dollars; the first print area is in the price and each further area adds a per-piece charge shown here. Designing is free; nothing is charged until the customer orders on aipromodesign.com.

### `design_item` (~316 tokens)

Design artwork for an item

Make a print-ready design from a short description, for one item in one color. Returns a watermarked preview of the design on the item, a design_id for revise_design and open_in_studio, and how many free designs are left. Describe the ARTWORK only ("a snarling wolf head, two colors"), not the garment: the garment is chosen with `item` and `color`. Each call makes one design and spends one from the allowance (10 as a visitor, then 25 a day on an aipromodesign.com account). Pass back the `visitor` value from the previous answer so the allowance follows the customer.

Input parameters:

- `brief` (string, required): What the artwork shows, in the customer's words. The artwork alone - no shirt, no mug.
- `color` (string): The item's color by name (Navy, Black, White, Forest Green, Sport Gray, Red, Royal, Maroon...). Defaults to White.
- `item` (string): Item key or the word a customer would use (tee, hoodie, mug, tote, cap, polo, long sleeve, crewneck, performance tee, women's tee, youth hoodie, notebook, tumbler). Use list_items for the full set. D…
- `surface` (string): Which print area: front (default), back, left_sleeve, right_sleeve. The design is sized for it.
- `visitor` (string): The visitor value from an earlier answer in this conversation, if there was one.

### `revise_design` (~147 tokens)

Change a design

Redo an existing design with a change: a different color scheme, fewer details, bolder lines, a different pose, words added or removed. Works from the design, so the result stays recognizably the same piece. Spends one from the allowance like design_item. Returns a new design_id; the old one still exists.

Input parameters:

- `design_id` (string): The design_id from that design's earlier result. If that result is no longer in the conversation, leave this out to use the customer's most recent design.
- `instruction` (string, required): What to change, in a sentence.
- `visitor` (string): The visitor value from an earlier answer, if there was one.

### `quote_order` (~76 tokens)

Price an order

What an order would cost: per piece by size, the pieces, any volume discount, shipping, and the total before sales tax (tax is added at checkout where it applies). Nothing is charged. Use the sizes the customer named; a line is one item in one color with a count per size.

Input parameters:

- `lines` (array, required)

### `open_in_studio` (~123 tokens)

Continue on aipromodesign.com

A link that opens the aipromodesign.com designer with the design already on the item in that color and, when sizes are given, the order lines filled in. The customer finishes there: more edits with the designer's own tools, other print areas, names and numbers, sizes collected from a group, and checkout. Use it when the customer is ready to order or wants to keep working. Nothing is charged by opening it.

Input parameters:

- `lines` (array, required)
- `visitor` (string): The visitor value from an earlier answer, if there was one.

## Common questions

### What is the AI Promo Design MCP server?

AI Promo Design is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.aipromodesign/apparel-designer. Design custom t-shirts, hoodies, caps, mugs and totes, price an order, and link to order it. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://aipromodesign.com/api/mcp).

### Is the AI Promo Design MCP server safe to use?

AI Promo Design scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the AI Promo Design MCP server expose?

AI Promo Design exposes 5 tools: list_items, design_item, revise_design, quote_order, open_in_studio. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 766 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the AI Promo Design MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to AI Promo Design without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the AI Promo Design MCP server still maintained?

AI Promo Design is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 6 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the AI Promo Design MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 14 checks on AI Promo Design, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 10 more. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
