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 → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security46
- 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 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. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS check failed: the endpoint is reachable over plaintext HTTP. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- 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 Usability72
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 278 tokens (~92/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage86
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 57% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities20
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2024-11-05; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
How do I install the Safe-Check (recall + counterfeit) MCP server?
Safe-Check (recall + counterfeit) is a hosted endpoint at https://safecheck.dropwatchhq.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 93 to 97. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 28 days of observed history at the previous scan, 29 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
counterfeit_risk ~141
Assess counterfeit RISK for a collectible listing (a risk SIGNAL, never proof of fake). Combines marketplace base-risk + a price-vs-retail-median check when the item is a known collectible niche. Returns a risk level (low/med/high), a score, the signals, and authenticity advice.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| marketplace | string | – | Optional: where it's listed, e.g. 'aliexpress', 'ebay', 'etsy'. |
| price | number | – | Optional: the listed price to compare against the retail median. |
| query | string | yes | Product or brand, e.g. 'Funko Batman' or 'LEGO 10307'. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
recall_lookup ~86
Look up active US product recalls for a product or brand against live government feeds (CPSC/FDA/NHTSA-style aggregate). Returns matching recalls with the official agency source link and last-updated date. Use to check if something is recalled before buying/using it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Product name or brand, e.g. 'Peloton bike' or 'stroller'. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
safe_check ~51
Run both a recall lookup and a counterfeit-risk check in one call. Best general-purpose product-safety screen.
