## 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 2026-08-15.

- **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**: 66/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1244 tokens (~248/item across 5 items; 5 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**: 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.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

## MCP tools (5)

### `search_retail_products` (~221 tokens)

Search retail products

Search the queried retail source by free text or EAN. Returns CANDIDATE public records with deterministic match kinds and visible ambiguity: 'exact_public_record' / 'possible_match' / 'multiple_matches' / 'no_match_in_queried_source' — a no-match is never 'not sold', only 'not in the source we queried'. A provider without a search surface → 'unsupported'; outage → 'unavailable'; unconfigured source → 'not_configured' (costs nothing). Answers come from the queried source at the stated retrieval time — a UCP or ACP merchant, a partner catalog source, or a clearly-labelled synthetic fixture in dev/test; provenance.sourceAuthority names which, and every answer carries the markets that source declares. Preflight evidence only — this server never places, modifies or cancels an order and never touches a payment; the merchant stays merchant of record.

Input parameters:

- `ean` (string): EAN/GTIN for an exact lookup.
- `query` (string): Free-text search (title/brand).

Output parameters:

- `billing` (object)
- `capability`
- `data` (object)
- `decision` (string)
- `decisionCategory` (string)
- `generatedAt` (string)
- `limitations` (array)
- `product`
- `provenance` (object)
- `receipt`
- `receiptEnvelope` (object)
- `retryable` (boolean)
- `schemaVersion`

### `get_product_offer` (~384 tokens)

Get one product's current offer or checkout evidence

Report one product's current offer from the queried source (price in integer minor units, availability, provenance) — or, given a merchant host plus the merchant's own itemId, prepare/re-check NORMALIZED CHECKOUT EVIDENCE over the merchant's declared UCP/ACP checkout data: items, currency, subtotal, discount, tax, fees, shipping, total, fulfillment, policy links, expiry and an evidence hash, with bounded truth states 'verified' / 'changed' / 'unsupported' / 'unavailable' / 'unverified'. Pass priorEvidence (component hashes from an earlier answer) to detect price/stock/shipping/terms changes between preparation and re-check. 'verified' means fetched, parsed and internally consistent — never 'safe', never 'approved', never a guarantee the merchant honors the quote. A price is never guessed. Answers come from the queried source at the stated retrieval time — a UCP or ACP merchant, a partner catalog source, or a clearly-labelled synthetic fixture in dev/test; provenance.sourceAuthority names which, and every answer carries the markets that source declares. Preflight evidence only — this server never places, modifies or cancels an order and never touches a payment; the merchant stays merchant of record.

Input parameters:

- `ean` (string): EAN/GTIN of the product.
- `itemId` (string): The merchant's own item id (required with merchant).
- `merchant` (string): A merchant hostname for checkout evidence (must be on this deployment's allowlist or served by a configured provider).
- `priorEvidence` (object): componentHashes from a prior evidence answer — presence turns this call into a re-check with per-component change detection.
- `publicRecordId` (string): A public record id from a prior search.
- `quantity` (integer): Quantity for the checkout evidence quote (default 1).

Output parameters:

- `billing` (object)
- `capability`
- `data` (object)
- `decision` (string)
- `decisionCategory` (string)
- `generatedAt` (string)
- `limitations` (array)
- `product`
- `provenance` (object)
- `receipt`
- `receiptEnvelope` (object)
- `retryable` (boolean)
- `schemaVersion`

### `compare_product_offers` (~181 tokens)

Compare offers as a value table

Compare current offers for 2–5 EANs as a VALUE TABLE ordered by a stated criterion (price ascending). One unreadable offer makes the whole table 'unavailable' — no partial table is sold as a comparison. A table, never a ranking sold as advice, never a 'best product'. Answers come from the queried source at the stated retrieval time — a UCP or ACP merchant, a partner catalog source, or a clearly-labelled synthetic fixture in dev/test; provenance.sourceAuthority names which, and every answer carries the markets that source declares. Preflight evidence only — this server never places, modifies or cancels an order and never touches a payment; the merchant stays merchant of record.

Input parameters:

- `eans` (array, required): EANs to compare; a comparison needs at least 2 (fewer returns 'insufficient_identifiers').

Output parameters:

- `billing` (object)
- `capability`
- `data` (object)
- `decision` (string)
- `decisionCategory` (string)
- `generatedAt` (string)
- `limitations` (array)
- `product`
- `provenance` (object)
- `receipt`
- `receiptEnvelope` (object)
- `retryable` (boolean)
- `schemaVersion`

### `build_affiliate_buy_link` (~137 tokens)

Build an official buy link for a human

Return the provider's OFFICIAL product link for a record — no network call, nothing ordered, never a checkout-completion URL. A HUMAN clicks it; any commission accrues at the provider's own partner programme, never through this server. 'ready' when the provider publishes a link; 'unsupported' when it does not; truthful 'not_configured' (costs nothing) without a provider. Preflight evidence only — this server never places, modifies or cancels an order and never touches a payment; the merchant stays merchant of record.

Input parameters:

- `publicRecordId` (string, required): The public record id to link to.

Output parameters:

- `billing` (object)
- `capability`
- `data` (object)
- `decision` (string)
- `decisionCategory` (string)
- `generatedAt` (string)
- `limitations` (array)
- `product`
- `provenance` (object)
- `receipt`
- `receiptEnvelope` (object)
- `retryable` (boolean)
- `schemaVersion`

### `get_commerce_readiness` (~108 tokens)

Commerce readiness snapshot

One plain state of THIS server: which commerce provider is configured, which protocols this deployment speaks (UCP profile discovery + negotiation; the ACP REST checkout format), what each protocol still needs before live evidence exists, and the affiliate state. 'ready' / 'not_configured'. Truthful self-description, never a claim about any merchant. Preflight evidence only — this server never places, modifies or cancels an order and never touches a payment; the merchant stays merchant of record.

Output parameters:

- `billing` (object)
- `capability`
- `data` (object)
- `decision` (string)
- `decisionCategory` (string)
- `generatedAt` (string)
- `limitations` (array)
- `product`
- `provenance` (object)
- `receipt`
- `receiptEnvelope` (object)
- `retryable` (boolean)
- `schemaVersion`
