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 →
Endpoint Security63
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS not yet verified: we couldn't determine whether a plaintext access path exists. View diagnostics → Unverified
- 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 Usability63
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 561 tokens (~187/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

answer_query ~127
Use answer_query to get a grounded answer to a query about Google developer products. This tool has limited quota. This tool will synthesize information from the corpus to generate an answer to the query. answer_query grounds answers using the same corpus as search_documents. This tool returns the generated answer_text and a list of document names (references) used to generate the answer. Use get_documents with the document names to fetch the entire document content if needed. If you get a 429 out of quota error, use search_documents instead.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Required. The query to answer. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| answerText | string | — | The answer to the query. |
| references | array | — | Output only. The resource names of the documents used to generate the answer. |
No examples provided.
get_documents ~145
Use this tool to retrieve the full content of a single document or up to 20 documents in a single call. The document names should be obtained from the `parent` field of results from a call to the `search_documents` tool. Set the `names` parameter to a list of document names.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| names | array | yes | Required. The names of the documents to retrieve, as returned by search_documents. A maximum of 20 documents can be retrieved in one call. The documents are returned in the same order as the `names`… |

|---|---|---|---|
| documents | array | — | Documents requested. |
No examples provided.
search_documents ~289
Use this tool to find documentation about Google developer products. The documents contain official APIs, code snippets, release notes, best practices, guides, debugging info, and more. It covers the following products and domains: * ADK: adk.dev * Android: developer.android.com * Apigee: docs.apigee.com * Chrome: developer.chrome.com * Dart: dart.dev * Firebase: firebase.google.com * Flutter: docs.flutter.dev * Fuchsia: fuchsia.dev * Gemini CLI: geminicli.com * Go: go.dev * Google AI: ai.google.dev * Google Antigravity: antigravity.google * Google Cloud: cloud.google.com & docs.cloud.google.com * Google Developers, Ads, Search, Google Maps, Youtube: developers.google.com * Google Home: developers.home.google.com * Google Maps Platform: mapsplatform.google.com * TensorFlow: www.tensorflow.org * Web: web.dev This tool returns chunks of text, names, and URLs for matching documents. If the returned chunks are not detailed enough to answer the user's question, use `get_documents` with the `parent` from this tool's output to retrieve the full document content.
