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 46 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 Usability83
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 7677 tokens (~144/item across 53 items; 46 tools + 7 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 Management60
- Stability observed for 18 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage99
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 98% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
- Structured output schemas are declared (24% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety75
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- 0 of 3 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "find_transfer_frameworks" implies "transfer" and declares readOnlyHint instead, contradicting what its own name says it does. See how to fix → Fail
- An AI judge read all 48 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
- Supports UI / widget rendering.Pass
How do I install the com.ksaworks/goldseam MCP server?
com.ksaworks/goldseam is a hosted endpoint at https://goldseam.ksaworks.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.

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.
- 27 Sept 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 57 to 60. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 17 days of observed history at the previous scan, 18 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

One checklist: its requirement groups (every header and full item count), each group's items with published credit strings, alternatives, and — where an item resolved to a course — that course's own code, title, and published credits, attributed to the course. Items come in pages across the groups; the answer states items_total and next_item_offset. Every row names the captured page it came from.

get_courseshelf_summary CourseShelf Holdings Summary ~94
What does CourseShelf hold? From the records published with the build, read as published and never computed: per catalog area, how many institutions have loaded content and how many records were loaded; every table's row count; organizations by sector; the census of the whole index with its verdicts; and per-state counts and per-school verdicts where the build publishes them. Anything not published for this build is said so.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_dictionary_summary Get Dictionary Summary ~119
What does the KSA Dictionary hold? The words and meanings it places, the governed terms, the O*NET content-model elements, the link words and the CIP-SOC crosswalk, each with its own version and build date where the layer publishes one, and an honest not held where it does not. Read as published at boot, never computed at request time, and never a word lookup: for one word use resolve_term. The words it holds are those it places; it is not all of WordNet, and the answer says so.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.

my_selfie_ksa_view My Selfie (KSA View) ~189
The person's Selfie from their evidence package: the seven dimensions (skills, knowledge, abilities and more) as the evidence shows them, each item citing the file, the occupation O*NET describes, or the life experience it came from, plus what could not be placed. It mirrors, for the person to confirm, refine or reject; it is never a grade or a credit decision. The person's placements and dismissals in the package's selfie.learner_decisions are honored.

resolve_term Resolve Term ~144
Where does a word place in the KSA model? The KSA Dictionary is the shared vocabulary that defines the terms a learner uses to assert what they know, do, and are — and the terms a learning offering uses to express what it comprises — so both sides resolve to the same identifiers, never spelling matches. Answers from three linked layers (governed lexicon, O*NET content model, WordNet-derived index), each placement attributed to its layer with provenance; the WordNet placement carries the word's definition (gloss) and synonyms.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |

Which certification is this prose name? Start here for any plain question — a trade, field, job, skill, or company in everyday words.

suggest_credit_for_my_learning Suggest Credit For My Learning ~294
Where is a person in the program they are aiming for, and what may their learning meet? Name the program with `checklist_id` (find it with find_programs at that school) and the answer is that program's checklist line by line: the lines their claims may meet, each with the claim, how well it is corroborated and every link cited; the lines a transfer answer in their package already covers; and the lines still needed. Learning no line matches stands as block credit. Without a program, no course is suggested and the claims stand as block credit. Each suggestion is a case to put to the school's prior learning review, never a promise: say may, never will. Nothing is stored: the answer returns the package with the suggestions for the agent to keep.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| aspiration | string | – | Optional: what the person is aiming for |
| checklist_id | string | – | The program the person is aiming for, from find_programs or find_checklists at that school. Its lines are the only courses considered; without it no course is suggested. |

will_my_credits_transfer Will My Credits Transfer ~281
Will my prior credits apply as credit at my target school? For each thing a person holds (an AP, CLEP or IB exam and its score, or a course taken at a school) the target school's own published transfer rules (CourseAtlas) and CollegeBoard's reported AP policy, in three states: covered (a rule carries it to a course at the target), missing (the target's own rule needs a higher score), unknown (no rule held; never a guess). Each covered item names the course it lands as, every rule with its minimum score and dates, how many rules agree, and the target's programs whose checklists require that course. A case to argue, not a verdict; recognition is the school's act.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| checklist_id | string | – | Optional: the target program's checklist id; the answer then names the lines each covered item addresses |
| held | array | yes | 1 to 20 things held: an exam { program: AP|CLEP|IB, exam: its code (e.g. AP 3700) or title (e.g. United States History), score }, or a course { unitid or school, code as printed (e.g. HIS 110) } |
