## 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 2026-09-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 1 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - 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**: 82/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 204 tokens (~204/item across 1 items; 1 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **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 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 1 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (1)

### `speed_read` (~204 tokens)

Render a Speed Reader for the provided text. The user can speed-read articles, documents, or any wall of text via Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) with density-aware pacing.

WHEN TO CALL: Whenever the user wants to "speedread", "speed read this", "read fast", or asks to consume long text quickly. Pass the full text via the text argument.

RESPONSE: This tool returns a click-out URL to the Speed Reader web app at archerionlabs.com/speedread. The URL carries a bind token and stays openable for 24 hours. On the free tier the reading session itself expires 1 hour after it is created; a signed-in paid account can still open it for the whole window. Always present the URL to the user as a clickable link.

Speed Reader by Archerion.

Input parameters:

- `text` (string, required): The text to speed-read.
- `title` (string): Optional short title or source hint shown in the reader header.
