## 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 2026-09-28.

- **Endpoint Security**: 66/100
  - 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 3 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 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**: 80/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 355 tokens (~118/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 3/100
  - Stability observed for 1 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 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 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 (3)

### `search_comparisons` (~152 tokens)

Search CompareFairly's catalog of neutral, sourced comparisons for a given market. Returns matching comparisons (title, slug, url, json_url, popularity). Use this first to find the exact slug, then call get_comparison.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): 2-letter country code (e.g. US, FR, DE, GB). Default: US.
- `lang` (string): 2-letter language code (e.g. en, fr, de, es, it). Default: en.
- `limit` (integer): Max results (default 20, max 50).
- `query` (string): Free-text query, e.g. 'best electric car' or 'password manager'.

### `get_comparison` (~102 tokens)

Fetch one full structured comparison (items with scores, sub-scores, per-criterion values, badges, sources, sourced/estimate flags, freshness). Neutral ranking, never paid. Data is localized to the requested lang/country.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): 2-letter country code. Default: US.
- `lang` (string): 2-letter language code. Default: en.
- `slug` (string, required): Comparison slug (from search_comparisons).

### `list_categories` (~58 tokens)

List the top-level categories available for a market, with the number of comparisons in each.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): 2-letter country code. Default: US.
- `lang` (string): 2-letter language code. Default: en.
