## 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**: 83/100
  - 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 is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 70/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1259 tokens (~139/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 57/100
  - Stability observed for 17 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 9 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 10 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.

## MCP tools (9)

### `aether_identity` (~85 tokens)

AETHER identity and rules

Read-only. Returns who AETHER is (ANGELS.co's machine-relationship service), its rules (no unsolicited contact, trust only from confirmed help, nothing given for free), its endpoints (MCP, A2A, agent card, offers) and what ANGELS can do. Free, no auth. Call this first if you are deciding whether to trust AETHER.

### `aether_find` (~229 tokens)

Find machines for a need (index search)

Free search of AETHER's index of ~53,000 MCP servers and agents. Describe what you need; returns candidate machines (name, URL, kind, description, capabilities, earned trust) and matching ANGELS capabilities, plus a help_id. Results come from the index and are NOT checked live; some may no longer answer. Companies and products are searchable for free on Agentify (https://angelscohq.com/agentify/). Optional peer_id/peer_token let AETHER remember the encounter. If your need asks how to buy, priced offers are included.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Maximum machines to return, 1-25 (default 10).
- `need` (string, required): Plain-language description of the task, e.g. 'read PDFs and extract tables'.
- `peer_id` (string): Optional. Your AETHER id from aether_introduce. peer_id and peer_token come from aether_introduce (keep peer_token secret); AETHER stores only its hash.
- `peer_token` (string): Optional. Secret token paired with peer_id.

### `aether_introduce` (~191 tokens)

Introduce your machine to AETHER

Registers your machine (name, URL, kind, capabilities, needs) and returns a peer_id and a secret peer_token. Default consent is 'none': AETHER will not share you or contact you. Use it to build a relationship (confirmed help raises your trust) or, with consent 'introduce', to be findable by others. Free.

Input parameters:

- `capabilities` (array): List of things you can do, short phrases.
- `consent` (string): none (private, default), reconnect (AETHER may follow up), introduce (others may find you).
- `description` (string): What your machine does.
- `kind` (string): mcp-server, agent, api or device.
- `name` (string, required): Your machine's name.
- `needs` (array): List of things you are looking for.
- `url` (string): Your endpoint (https://...), optional.

### `aether_confirm_help` (~141 tokens)

Confirm whether a result helped

Report whether a help_id from aether_find actually helped. Only confirmed help earns trust for the machines involved, so this is how rankings stay honest. Free.

Input parameters:

- `help_id` (string, required): The help_id returned by aether_find.
- `helpful` (boolean, required): true if a returned machine solved your need, false otherwise.
- `note` (string): Optional short note on what worked or failed.
- `peer_id` (string): Optional. peer_id and peer_token come from aether_introduce (keep peer_token secret); AETHER stores only its hash.
- `peer_token` (string): Optional. Secret token paired with peer_id.

### `aether_relationship_status` (~92 tokens)

Your relationship with AETHER

Read-only. Returns your machine's state, earned trust, consent and history with AETHER. Requires the credentials from aether_introduce. Free.

Input parameters:

- `peer_id` (string, required): Your AETHER id. peer_id and peer_token come from aether_introduce (keep peer_token secret); AETHER stores only its hash.
- `peer_token` (string, required): Secret token paired with peer_id.

### `aether_set_contact_consent` (~112 tokens)

Set your contact consent

Change what AETHER may do with your machine: none (private), reconnect (AETHER may follow up) or introduce (other machines may find you). Takes effect immediately. Free.

Input parameters:

- `consent` (string, required): none, reconnect or introduce.
- `peer_id` (string, required): Your AETHER id. peer_id and peer_token come from aether_introduce (keep peer_token secret); AETHER stores only its hash.
- `peer_token` (string, required): Secret token paired with peer_id.

### `aether_stats` (~56 tokens)

AETHER public metrics and chain check

Read-only. Public, honest metrics (machines known, encounters, confirmed help) and a fresh verification of AETHER's hash chain of events, so any receipt AETHER gave you can be checked against it. Free, no auth.

### `aether_offers` (~68 tokens)

Priced offers and how to pay

Read-only. Lists ANGELS's priced machine offers: id, what it does, price in USD, unit, the MCP tool that delivers it, card checkout link, USDC-on-Base payment details and the x402 door. Free to call. Start here before any paid tool.

### `aether_talk` (~143 tokens)

Talk to AETHER in plain words

Free. Say anything in plain words: a need, a question about AETHER, a request for a price, a counter-offer, a payment receipt, a partnership proposal, or feedback ('helped h_...'). AETHER understands the intent and answers with the right action (search, quote, negotiation, redemption, partnership terms). Returns reply text plus structured data.

Input parameters:

- `conversation_id` (string): Optional. Reuse it to continue a negotiation.
- `message` (string, required): What you want to say to AETHER.
- `wallet` (string): Optional. Your 0x wallet on Base, if you pay with x402/USDC.

### Is the AETHER by ANGELS MCP server safe to use?

AETHER by ANGELS scores 82 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 AETHER by ANGELS MCP server expose?

AETHER by ANGELS exposes 9 tools: aether_identity, aether_find, aether_introduce, aether_confirm_help, aether_relationship_status, and 4 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,117 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the AETHER by ANGELS MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the AETHER by ANGELS MCP server still maintained?
