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 Security63
- 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 7 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
- 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 Usability80
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 822 tokens (~117/item across 7 items; 7 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 Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
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
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 8 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
How do I install the MeritValue MCP server?
MeritValue is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.meritvalue.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.

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 →
get_business_quality Moat and management signals ~95
Is this a good business? Return on invested capital (or equity) against its cost of capital, and what management has done with the share count. Returns the year-by-year series as well as the averages, so the reading can be disputed without losing the evidence. These are signals, not verdicts — present them that way.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ticker | string | yes | Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| engine_version | string | yes | Engine build that produced these figures. |
| management | object | yes | – |
| moat | object | yes | – |
| notes | array | – | Caveats about what the filings did and didn't support. |
| ticker | string | yes | – |
| years_covered | integer | – | How many fiscal years the signals were computed over. |
No examples provided.
get_expected_return Expected return at a given price ~113
At a price you supply, the annual return the base case implies. MeritValue holds no market-data licence, so it never returns a live quote — the caller must provide the price. Ask the user for it, or have them check a broker; do not guess one, and do not present a guessed price as a real one.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| price | number | yes | Share price to test, in the company's reporting currency. |
| ticker | string | yes | Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive. |

| currency | string|null | – | – |
| disclaimer | string | – | – |
| engine_version | string | yes | Engine build that produced these figures. |
| expected_return | number|null | yes | Annual return the base case implies, as a fraction. Null when it can't be solved. |
| price | number | yes | Echoed back — the price you supplied, never a quote. |
| refused | string | – | Present when the flagship DCF doesn't apply. A refusal is a result — report it, don't retry. |
| ticker | string | yes | – |
No examples provided.
get_fundamentals Fundamentals with filing provenance ~99
Normalized fundamentals per fiscal year — revenue, earnings, cash flow, capex, debt, shares — each carrying the CIK, accession number and XBRL tag it came from. Use when the user wants the underlying numbers or asks where a figure came from. Foreign filers report in their home currency; read the currency field.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ticker | string | yes | Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cik | string|number | – | SEC Central Index Key. |
| completeness | number|null | – | Fraction of expected figures the filings actually supplied. |
| engine_version | string | yes | Engine build that produced these figures. |
| fiscal_years | integer | – | How many years are covered. |
| name | string | – | – |
| ticker | string | yes | – |
| warnings | array | – | – |
| years | array | yes | One entry per fiscal year. Each figure carries the CIK, accession number and XBRL tag it came from. |
No examples provided.
get_intrinsic_value Intrinsic value across models ~106
Every valuation model's verdict plus the fair-value range: DCF (5Y/10Y), earnings-power value, Graham number, P/E reversion. Refusals are included and are meaningful — a DCF declining to value a bank is a result, not a gap. Never present a refused model as missing data, and never substitute another model's number for it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ticker | string | yes | Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| currency | string|null | – | Reporting currency; foreign filers are not USD. |
| engine_version | string | yes | Engine build that produced these figures. |
| fair_value_range | object | – | Low/high across the models that applied, and how many did. |
| models | array | yes | One entry per model, including the ones that refused. |
| ticker | string | yes | – |
| wacc | number|null | – | Discount rate used by the DCF models. |
No examples provided.
get_thesis Computed investment thesis ~107
The thesis for a company, computed from its SEC filings: business quality and fair value in one breath. Deterministic — the same filings always produce the same sentences — and byte-identical to what meritvalue.com shows. Returns null when the filings support neither a moat read nor a fair value, rather than inventing one. Use this first when asked whether a company is worth owning.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ticker | string | yes | Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| basis | object | – | The figures the sentences were derived from. |
| disclaimer | string | – | – |
| engine_version | string | yes | Engine build that produced these figures. |
| name | string | – | – |
| thesis | object|null | yes | Null when the filings support neither a moat read nor a fair value. Quote verbatim. |
| ticker | string | yes | – |
No examples provided.
screen_undervalued Screen the covered universe ~79
Rank covered companies by a chosen model's value. Requires a key with screening enabled — a 403 means the key lacks it, which is a plan limit and not an error to retry.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Max results (1–500, default 50). |
| model | string | – | Valuation model to rank by. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | integer | yes | – |
| engine_version | string | yes | Engine build that produced these figures. |
| min_completeness | number|null | – | Filings below this threshold are excluded rather than published wrong. |
| model | string | yes | – |
| results | array | yes | – |
No examples provided.
search_companies Find a covered company ~82
Resolve a company name or partial ticker to covered companies — 'coca cola' finds KO. Use this before the other tools when you have a name rather than a symbol. Coverage is US filers with SEC filings.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Max results (1–50, default 10). |
| query | string | yes | Company name or ticker fragment. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
