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 Security57
- 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 1 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 is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- 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 Usability70
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 362 tokens (~362/item across 1 items; 1 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 Management17
- Stability observed for 5 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
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 2 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the Handsontable Docs MCP Server server?
Handsontable Docs MCP Server is a hosted endpoint at https://docs-assistant.handsontable.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.

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 13 to 17. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 4 days of observed history at the previous scan, 5 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 →
search_docs Search Handsontable/HyperFormula docs ~243
Semantic (meaning-based) search over the Handsontable + HyperFormula documentation knowledge base — docs guides, code recipes, blog posts, release notes and GitHub issues. Returns ranked page-level snippets with title, content, relevance score, url and provenance (framework, kind, htVersion/hfVersion). `url` is null when no public page exists (recipes, releases, issues) — never fabricate a link. Scores are rank-only. Guides repeat once per framework (javascript/react/angular/vue) — dedupe on url/title when you need distinct documents. Pass ht_version/hf_version (your installed releases) to get an explicit coverage note when the KB documents a different version.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| hf_version | string | – | Your installed HyperFormula version (e.g. "3.4.0") — same coverage-note semantics. |
| ht_version | string | – | Your installed Handsontable version (e.g. "18.1.0") — adds an explicit coverage note when the KB documents a different minor. |
| limit | integer | – | Max results (default 8, max 20). |
| query | string | yes | Search terms or a natural-language question. |
