## 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 2026-11-05.

- **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**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 824 tokens (~206/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 7/100
  - Stability observed for 2 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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

### How do I install the Life Scientific product catalogue MCP server?

Life Scientific product catalogue is a hosted endpoint at https://lifescientific.com/api/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.

## MCP tools (4)

### `search_products` (~324 tokens)

Search products

Search the Life Scientific crop-protection catalogue. Filter by free-text query (brand name, tagline, active ingredients, crops and pests), product type, crop, pest/disease/weed target, and/or market/region. Use this for problem-first questions like "what controls septoria in wheat in Ireland?". Returns a compact list of matching products. Pest/disease targets are not yet recorded for every market: if a target search in a market finds nothing, search that market by crop and type instead, and tell the user to confirm the target on the label (get_product_documents). Never conclude that no product controls it.

Input parameters:

- `crop` (string): Crop name to match against approved uses (e.g. "wheat", "potatoes").
- `limit` (integer): Max results (default 25).
- `locale` (string): Language for localised prose (taglines, descriptions). Defaults to "en". Regulatory facts are never translated.
- `query` (string): Free-text search over name, tagline, active ingredients, crops and pests/diseases/weeds. Every word must match, in any order (e.g. "septoria wheat"). Best for pests and diseases.
- `region` (string): ISO alpha-2 market code to restrict to (e.g. "gb", "ie", "fr").
- `target` (string): Pest, disease or weed on an approved use in that market (e.g. "septoria", "black-grass"). Singular or plural.
- `type` (string): Restrict to one product type.

### `get_product` (~111 tokens)

Get product detail

Get the full detail for one product by its slug: active ingredients with resistance-group codes (FRAC/HRAC/IRAC), formulation, key uses, and per-market registrations with approved crop/target uses, PHI, pack sizes and safety summary.

Input parameters:

- `locale` (string): Language for localised prose (taglines, descriptions). Defaults to "en". Regulatory facts are never translated.
- `slug` (string, required): Product slug (from search_products), e.g. "spinosad-50".

### `check_authorization` (~116 tokens)

Check market authorisation

Check whether a product is authorised in a specific market/region and, if so, return its registration status, number, pack sizes and approved uses. Use this to answer "can I use product X in country Y?".

Input parameters:

- `locale` (string): Language for localised prose (taglines, descriptions). Defaults to "en". Regulatory facts are never translated.
- `region` (string, required): ISO alpha-2 market code, e.g. "gb", "ie", "fr".
- `slug` (string, required): Product slug.

### `get_product_documents` (~101 tokens)

Get product documents (label / SDS)

Get the current regulatory documents for a product — the official product label and safety data sheet (SDS) per registered market, with download URLs and versions. Labels are market-specific: always use the document for the market where the product will be applied.

Input parameters:

- `region` (string): Optional ISO alpha-2 market code (e.g. "gb", "ie") to fetch one market only.
- `slug` (string, required): Product slug (from search_products).
