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 Security80
- 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 is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- 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 (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1054 tokens (~175/item across 6 items; 6 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 Management10
- Stability observed for 3 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 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass
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 3 to 7. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 1 days of observed history at the previous scan, 2 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

Diagnostic detail from the automated scan of this channel: what the scanner observed at each step, so you can see exactly where a check passed or failed. It is informational only and never changes the trust score.

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 →
create_booking_handoff Create a checkout link for the parent ~115
Create a prefilled checkout link for 1-6 bookable sessions and share it with the parent. This is a shopping-list prefill, NOT a reservation: no spots are held, and the parent signs in, names their campers, signs waivers, and pays on kiddinglab.com. Never include child names or other personal information. The link expires in 24 hours.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| items | array | yes | 1-6 sessions to prefill into the parent checkout. No PII — session ids and counts only. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
find_camp_by_name Find a camp by name ~100
Look up camps by camp or organization name when the parent already knows (roughly) what the camp is called. Tolerates misspellings. Returns matching camps ranked by similarity — use get_camp_details on a result for sessions, prices, and availability. For discovery by area, use search_camps instead.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | string | yes | Camp or organization name (or part of one), e.g. "Steve and Kate's". |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_booking_policies Get booking, refund & payment policies ~70
Get the refund policy, payment schedule, waiver requirement, and platform payment facts for one session. Parents review, sign, and pay on kiddinglab.com — assistants only prepare the choice.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| sess_id | integer | yes | The session id (sess_id from search_camps or get_camp_details). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_camp_details Get camp details ~107
Get the full profile of one camp: description, organizer, parent rating, and its sessions with dates, prices (US dollars), registration_status, and bookability. Sessions from the last 12 months are included — check session_status (ended/in_progress/upcoming) before recommending. data_freshness says how recently the listing was verified. Use the camp_id returned by search_camps.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| camp_id | integer | yes | The kiddinglab camp_id (from search_camps results). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_sessions_and_availability Check live availability & pricing for sessions ~86
Check live bookability, pricing (US dollars), remaining spots, and refund policy for up to 20 sessions at once. Sessions marked listing_only are booked on the camp's own website (registration_url) rather than on kiddinglab.com.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| sess_ids | array | yes | 1-20 session ids (sess_id values from search_camps or get_camp_details). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_camps Search kids' camps (DC/MD/VA area) ~386
Search kids' camp sessions in the Washington DC / Maryland / Virginia area by location, dates, ages, categories, and price. Location is required: pass a 5-digit ZIP code (or lat+lon, or city+state). With start_date/end_date, results are individual sessions (10 per page); without dates, results are one representative upcoming session per camp location (result_grain says which). Each result includes prices in US dollars, registration_status, data_freshness (how recently the listing was verified), and a canonical kiddinglab.com URL.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ages | array | – | Children's ages to match, e.g. [7, 9]. |
| categories | array | – | Filter by category names. Unknown categories are ignored. |
| city | string | – | City name as an alternative location (use with state), e.g. "Arlington". |
| end_date | string | – | Latest session end date (YYYY-MM-DD). |
| future_only | boolean | – | Only sessions that have not yet ended (default true). Set false to also include recently ended past-season programs — useful for "did they run this last year" questions. |
| lat | number | – | Latitude (use with lon instead of zip). |
| lon | number | – | Longitude (use with lat instead of zip). |
| max_price_usd | number | – | Maximum session price in US dollars. |
| page | integer | – | Result page (10 results per page, max page 100). |
| radius_miles | number | – | Search radius in miles (default 15, max 50). |
| start_date | string | – | Earliest session start date (YYYY-MM-DD). |
| state | string | – | Two-letter state code (use with city), e.g. "VA". |
| zip | string | – | 5-digit US ZIP code to search around. Provide zip OR lat+lon. |
