## 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 2026-10-23.

- **Endpoint Security**: 46/100
  - 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 enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - 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**: 60/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 642 tokens (~214/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - 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**: 92/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 75% 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)

### `buscar_promocoes` (~248 tokens)

Search AliExpress deals

Lists AliExpress products with a real price drop, detected by our price history in the last 7 days (the seller's 'was' price does not count). Each product includes discount.certainty: 'verified' means the drop is proven by the time-weighted median of our readings and MAY be presented as savings; 'none' means there is no discount that can be claimed. The seller's 'was' price on the listing does not support any discount here. Quoting the percentage without the certainty next to it misinforms the reader.

Input parameters:

- `apenas_verificados` (boolean): Kept for compatibility: since 2026-10-14 this tool only returns products whose drop our price history proves.
- `busca` (string): Text to look for in the title, only among the top drops read (up to 100); this is not a search of the whole catalog.
- `categoria` (string): Category slug. Omit to search all categories.
- `desconto_minimo` (integer): Minimum real drop, in percent, against the typical price we measured.
- `limite` (integer)
- `preco_maximo` (number): Maximum price in US dollars.

### `historico_de_preco` (~92 tokens)

Price history for a product

Observed price series for an AliExpress product. Accepts the itemId or the product URL. Also returns the number of readings and days of tracking: with too little tracking there is no basis to claim a drop, and the response says so explicitly.

Input parameters:

- `produto` (string, required): Numeric AliExpress product_id, or the product URL (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/<product_id>.html).

### `quedas_de_preco` (~155 tokens)

Detected price drops

Products whose price dropped at least 15% and $3 below the TYPICAL price of the last 14 days (median weighted by how long each price lasted — a flash sale only counts for the hours it ran), or that hit their lowest recorded price. Requires 3 days of tracking. Each product includes discount.certainty: 'verified' means the drop is proven by the time-weighted median of our readings and MAY be presented as savings; 'none' means there is no discount that can be claimed. The seller's 'was' price on the listing does not support any discount here. Quoting the percentage without the certainty next to it misinforms the reader.

Input parameters:

- `limite` (integer)
