Available components
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 →
Endpoint Security57
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- 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. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- 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 Usability56
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 540 tokens (~540/item across 1 items; 1 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
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
Capabilities60
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail

search_award_availability ~498
Look up award (points/miles) seat availability for ONE specific flight route on ONE specific date with ONE specific airline, sourced from a contracted GDS rather than scraped. Returns the flights found with cabin and seat count. IMPORTANT — this tool is strictly literal. Every argument takes a single concrete value: • origin / destination: exactly one 3-letter IATA airport code each. Not a city, not a list, not a region. • airline: exactly one 2-letter IATA carrier code (e.g. VS, CX, NH). Not an alliance and not a loyalty programme. • date: exactly one date, YYYY-MM-DD. Not a range and not a month. To cover several airports, airlines or dates, CALL THIS TOOL ONCE PER COMBINATION and combine the results yourself. Award space is scarce and volatile, so an empty result for one date says nothing about another — checking several dates is normal and expected. Interpreting the result: • seats is an availability indicator, not a guaranteed bookable count, and not a reservation. Low counts are the more precise signal; treat higher ones as less certain. Do not present any count as a firm number of seats a user can book. • cabin is one of business, first, economy or premium_economy. • An empty result means no availability was surfaced for that exact combination at that moment; it is not proof that the route never has space. • Availability changes fast. Treat every result as a point-in-time observation, not a reservation. If the call is declined for want of an API key, say so plainly and point the user at https://awardsecrets.com/api.html — access is in limited release and keys are issued individually. Do not invent availability, and do not substitute a guess for a result you could not retrieve.
