## 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 2026-10-23.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 4 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - 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**: 65/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 452 tokens (~113/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 33/100
  - Stability observed for 10 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 88/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 64% 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 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (4)

### `search_memes` (~279 tokens)

Search memes

Search memecub: Chinese 表情包 / 斗图 and English reaction memes and meme templates collected from the web (commercial_use=false), plus openly licensed emoji, art and photos (commercial_use=true). Search for the reaction you want in 1-3 words; Chinese queries find Chinese 表情包, English queries find English memes. Every result says whether it is cleared for commercial use and has a Markdown snippet that already includes any required credit line. Authenticated callers also get their private library.

Input parameters:

- `commercial_only` (boolean): Only images cleared for commercial use. Web-collected memes have commercial_use=false.
- `include_profanity` (boolean): Also return memes whose captions contain swearing (common in 斗图). Off by default.
- `kind` (string): meme = meme or 表情包 image, gif = animated meme, upload = the caller's own uploads
- `limit` (integer)
- `min_size` (integer): Skip images smaller than this many pixels on either side; 150 suits articles
- `no_credit` (boolean): Only commercially usable images that need no attribution
- `private_only` (boolean): Only the caller's private library
- `query` (string, required): Reaction or concept, e.g. 'facepalm', 'mind blown', '无语', '摸鱼'

### `get_meme` (~35 tokens)

Get meme details

Full details for one image by id: license, source, author, credit line, tags.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)

### `match_article` (~124 tokens)

Place memes into an article

Reads an article and returns where reaction images fit best, with a chosen image and alternatives for each spot, plus the article with images inserted as Markdown. Requires an API key and costs 10 credits. If you can read the article yourself, calling search_memes per spot (1 credit each) is cheaper.

Input parameters:

- `commercial_only` (boolean): Only images cleared for commercial use
- `count` (integer)
- `include_profanity` (boolean)
- `no_credit` (boolean): Only commercially usable images that need no attribution
- `text` (string, required)

### `list_categories` (~14 tokens)

List categories

Library categories with image counts.
