## 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 2026-08-03.

- **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 check failed: the endpoint is reachable over plaintext HTTP.
  - 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**: 71/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 410 tokens (~136/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**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 93/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 79% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Capabilities**: 20/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2024-11-05; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (3)

### `predict_recompete` (~201 tokens)

Predict WHO will win an expiring federal contract recompete. Pass a contract identifier (USAspending generated_internal_id / award gid) OR a NAICS+incumbent pair. Returns the incumbent with an adjusted incumbent-advantage probability plus top likely competitors ranked by recent award velocity in the NAICS/agency lane, the BASE RATES used, sample size, and an honest confidence band. Probabilistic estimate from PUBLIC USAspending data — not insider info.

Input parameters:

- `agency` (string): Awarding agency name (optional, sharpens the lane).
- `gid` (string): USAspending generated_internal_id (award gid). Best input.
- `incumbent` (string): Incumbent contractor name (required if no gid).
- `naics` (string): 6-digit NAICS, used to build the competitor field (required if no gid).
- `topN` (number): Number of competitors to return (default 5).

### `expiring_recompetes` (~133 tokens)

List federal contracts EXPIRING in a horizon window (period-of-performance end), with a winner prediction for each. Filter by NAICS and agency. This is the recompete pipeline feed.

Input parameters:

- `agency` (string)
- `limit` (number): Max contracts (default 20).
- `maxDays` (number): Window ceiling in days (default 180).
- `minAmount` (number): Minimum award $ (default 1,000,000).
- `minDays` (number): Window floor in days (default 90).
- `naics` (string): 6-digit NAICS.

### `lane_competitors` (~76 tokens)

Return the firms with the most recent award velocity in a NAICS (and optional agency) lane — i.e. the likely bidders on any recompete in that lane, ranked by recent wins and dollars.

Input parameters:

- `agency` (string)
- `limit` (number): Default 15.
- `naics` (string, required)
