## 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 2026-10-18.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation check failed: no authorisation is required to call this server, and it exposes a tool marked destructive (update_account).
  - 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**: 74/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 2422 tokens (~134/item across 18 items; 18 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 37/100
  - Stability observed for 11 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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - All 2 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 19 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).

### `update_account` (~146 tokens)

Change the agent account's name, organization, email, default ship_to or callback_url; omitted fields stay.
    A new email or callback_url is emailed to the previous account email. Agent accounts only.

Input parameters:

- `callback_url`: Public https URL for signed part, quote, and order webhooks; empty string removes it
- `email`: Email for the account notice, receipts, and order problems
- `name`: Name of the agent or app placing orders
- `organization`: Company or person operating the agent
- `ship_to`: US shipping address: {name, line1, line2?, city, state, postal_code, country: 'US', phone?}

### `upload_part` (~271 tokens)

Upload a CAD file (STL, 3MF, OBJ, STEP) from an https URL or base64 content (filename required for base64).
    MCP requests are limited to 4 MB, so base64 works for files up to about 3 MB; use a URL or get_upload_url for larger files.
    no_controlled_data must be true: confirms the file has no CUI/ITAR/export-controlled data.
    Returns a part with status 'pending'; poll get_part until 'ready' (usually seconds), or pass wait_seconds.

Input parameters:

- `content_base64`: The file's bytes, base64-encoded (up to about 3 MB)
- `filename`: File name with extension (.stl, .3mf, .obj, .step); required with content_base64
- `idempotency_key`: Same key on a retry returns the first result instead of creating another
- `no_controlled_data` (boolean, required): Must be true: confirms the file contains no CUI, ITAR, or export-controlled data
- `url`: Public https URL of the CAD file; we fetch it server-side
- `wait_seconds` (integer): Seconds (0-30) to wait server-side for the analysis to finish before answering; 0 answers at once

### `get_upload_url` (~86 tokens)

Get a one-time URL to HTTP PUT a large file directly (no auth header needed). Returns the part on upload.

Input parameters:

- `part_id` (string, required): Part id (prt_...) returned by upload_part or get_upload_url
- `wait_seconds` (integer): Seconds (0-30) to wait server-side for the analysis to finish before answering; 0 answers at once

### `create_quote` (~245 tokens)

Create a quote. items: [{part_id, quantity, config: {units, process, material, color, finishes, finish_color, services, infill, layer_height}}].

- `tiers`: One entry per speed: price, ship-by and arrive-by dates, eligibility
- `totals`: Totals for the chosen speed, including total_before_tax

### `create_checkout_link` (~83 tokens)

Option A: get a Stripe Checkout URL for a human to pay by card (tax added at checkout).
    Each new link stops earlier links for the same quote from working.

Input parameters:

- `idempotency_key`: Same key on a retry returns the first result instead of creating another
- `quote_id` (string, required): Quote id (qt_...) returned by create_quote

### `pay_with_crypto` (~196 tokens)

Option B: pay autonomously in USDC via x402 (agent accounts only).
    Call without payment_signature to get the payment requirements (amount, asset, pay_to, network); nothing is charged.
    Then sign an x402 'exact' payment and call again with payment_signature (the base64 PAYMENT-SIGNATURE value).
    If account credit covers the whole total, you get status 'credit_confirmation_required' and a credit_confirmation
    token instead; call again with confirm_credit to place the order.

Input parameters:

- `confirm_credit`: The credit_confirmation token from the previous call, to place an order fully paid by account credit
- `payment_signature`: Base64 x402 PAYMENT-SIGNATURE for the requirements from the first call; omit to get the requirements
- `quote_id` (string, required): Quote id (qt_...) returned by create_quote
- `use_credit` (boolean): Apply account credit before charging USDC

### `get_order` (~41 tokens)

Order status, ship-by and arrive-by dates, tracking.

Input parameters:

- `order_id` (string, required): Order id (ord_...) from list_orders or the paid quote

### `list_orders` (~44 tokens)

Orders for this account, newest first. Filter by quote_id to check whether a checkout link was paid.

Input parameters:

- `quote_id`: Only orders for this quote id (qt_...)

Output parameters:

- `result` (array)

### `set_refund_preference` (~85 tokens)

For USDC orders: receive refunds as 'usdc' (sent to the paying wallet) or 'credit' (account credit).

Input parameters:

- `method` (string, required): 'usdc' sends refunds to the paying wallet; 'credit' adds them to account credit
- `order_id` (string, required): Order id (ord_...) from list_orders or the paid quote

### `request_order_cancellation` (~103 tokens)

Ask the shop to cancel an order that hasn't shipped. A person reviews it; production may already have started.
    Asking again within 24 hours adds the reason without notifying the shop twice. The order.status_changed webhook
    and get_order show the outcome.

Input parameters:

- `order_id` (string, required): Order id (ord_...) from list_orders or the paid quote
- `reason` (string, required): Why the order should be canceled, for the person who reviews it
