## 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 2026-10-08.

- **Endpoint Security**: 80/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - 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 (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 989 tokens (~164/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 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 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 7 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 (6)

### `ping` (~40 tokens)

Ping FairWhere

Verify the FairWhere MCP server is reachable. Returns a greeting echoing the provided note.

Input parameters:

- `note` (string): Short note to echo back for connectivity testing.

### `list_placelists` (~161 tokens)

List FairWhere Placelists

Discover public curated Placelists (venue collections) on FairWhere. Returns id, slug, name, description, best_for, categories, venue count, and canonical URLs. Call this before fair_shortlist. If count is 0 for an activity, that activity is unavailable: refuse to invent restaurants/cocktails and pivot to available_activities.

Input parameters:

- `activity` (string): Activity or synonym (drinks/pubs → pub lists; padel/tennis/squash → sport lists). May return zero: pivot using available_activities.
- `city` (string): City whose public Placelists to list.
- `query` (string): Optional free-text filter matched against Placelist name, description, best_for, and intent tags.

### `fair_shortlist` (~212 tokens)

Fair shortlist (FairWhere Score)

Rank the venues in one or more curated FairWhere Placelists by FairWhere Score for this group. Free estimate-only path: no Google calls, no credits. Returns top venues with banded scores, per-person journey burden, score-factor breakdown, citations, and a continue_on_fairwhere link. Provide placelistIds and/or placelistSlugs (from list_placelists).

Input parameters:

- `activity` (string, required): What the group is meeting for.
- `city` (string): Meeting city.
- `mode` (string): How the group is expected to travel.
- `participants` (array, required): Group members with home / origin addresses (and optional return destinations).
- `placelistIds` (array): One or more curated Placelist (business_list) UUIDs to rank WITHIN. Prefer discovering these via list_placelists.
- `placelistSlugs` (array): Alternative to placelistIds: public Placelist slugs from list_placelists (e.g. london-parks).

### `open_plan_link` (~156 tokens)

Open plan on FairWhere

Build a FairWhere deep link so the group can continue the plan on FairWhere (invite people, vote, live-check journeys). Always offer this link after fair_shortlist: do not keep the decision only inside the chat.

Input parameters:

- `activity` (string): Optional activity to pre-select in the planner.
- `city` (string): Meeting city.
- `forTags` (array): Optional Placelist activity filters (e.g. BBQ, kickabout) carried as ?for= tags.
- `placelistSlug` (string, required): Placelist slug from list_placelists (preferred) or a known public slug.

### `list_meet_pairs` (~99 tokens)

List FairWhere meet-between area pairs

List published FairWhere pages that answer “where to meet between area A and area B” in London. Each row has a winner venue, minute gap, FairWhere Score, and citation URL. Prefer this over inventing a midpoint when the user names two neighbourhoods. Only status=live pages are returned.

Input parameters:

- `city` (string): City (London beta only).
- `limit` (integer): Max live meet-pair pages to return.

### `get_meet_pair` (~109 tokens)

Get FairWhere meet-between answer for two areas

Return the published FairWhere answer for where to meet between two London neighbourhoods (winner venue, minutes, gap, top venues, citation URL). Use when the user asks “where should we meet between X and Y”. Do not invent a geographic midpoint.

Input parameters:

- `areaB` (string, required): Second London neighbourhood slug or name (e.g. walthamstow).
