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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security80
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability80
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 193 tokens (~96/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
fetch ~83
Read a public webpage by URL. Uses indexed Apple documentation and video transcripts first, then official document JSON or live webpage extraction. Responses identify their original source and retrieval method. External pages are cached separately and never automatically added to Apple search.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | string | yes | Public HTTP(S) page URL. Apple sources use the index or official JSON; other readable pages use live extraction. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
search ~84
Search official Apple developer documentation and WWDC video transcripts using hybrid retrieval (keyword + semantic), followed by Jev relevance ranking of the merged candidates. Returns ranked source excerpts; use fetch for complete page content.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | English technical query for Apple's official developer documentation and WWDC transcripts. |
| result_count | integer | – | Number of results to return (1-10) |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

How do I install the com.apple-rag/mcp-server server?
com.apple-rag/mcp-server is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.apple-rag.com/, 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.
