## 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 2026-08-03.

- **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 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.
  - 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**: 76/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - 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.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 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.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-08-03 (score 67, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 7 to 10. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 2 days of observed history at the previous scan, 3 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

### 2026-08-01 (score 66, +1)

## MCP tools (7)

### `get_thesis` (~107 tokens)

Computed investment thesis

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.

Input parameters:

- `ticker` (string, required): Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive.

Output parameters:

- `basis` (object): The figures the sentences were derived from.
- `disclaimer` (string)
- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `name` (string)
- `thesis` (object|null): Null when the filings support neither a moat read nor a fair value. Quote verbatim.
- `ticker` (string)

### `get_business_quality` (~95 tokens)

Moat and management signals

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.

Input parameters:

- `ticker` (string, required): Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive.

Output parameters:

- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `management` (object)
- `moat` (object)
- `notes` (array): Caveats about what the filings did and didn't support.
- `ticker` (string)
- `years_covered` (integer): How many fiscal years the signals were computed over.

### `get_intrinsic_value` (~106 tokens)

Intrinsic value across models

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.

Input parameters:

- `ticker` (string, required): Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive.

Output parameters:

- `currency` (string|null): Reporting currency; foreign filers are not USD.
- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `fair_value_range` (object): Low/high across the models that applied, and how many did.
- `models` (array): One entry per model, including the ones that refused.
- `ticker` (string)
- `wacc` (number|null): Discount rate used by the DCF models.

### `get_expected_return` (~113 tokens)

Expected return at a given price

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.

Input parameters:

- `price` (number, required): Share price to test, in the company's reporting currency.
- `ticker` (string, required): Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive.

Output parameters:

- `assumptions` (object)
- `currency` (string|null)
- `disclaimer` (string)
- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `expected_return` (number|null): Annual return the base case implies, as a fraction. Null when it can't be solved.
- `price` (number): 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)

### `get_fundamentals` (~99 tokens)

Fundamentals with filing provenance

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.

Input parameters:

- `ticker` (string, required): Ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL. Case-insensitive.

Output parameters:

- `cik` (string|number): SEC Central Index Key.
- `completeness` (number|null): Fraction of expected figures the filings actually supplied.
- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `fiscal_years` (integer): How many years are covered.
- `name` (string)
- `ticker` (string)
- `warnings` (array)
- `years` (array): One entry per fiscal year. Each figure carries the CIK, accession number and XBRL tag it came from.

### `search_companies` (~82 tokens)

Find a covered company

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.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Max results (1–50, default 10).
- `query` (string, required): Company name or ticker fragment.

Output parameters:

- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `query` (string)
- `results` (array)

### `screen_undervalued` (~79 tokens)

Screen the covered universe

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.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Max results (1–500, default 50).
- `model` (string): Valuation model to rank by.

Output parameters:

- `count` (integer)
- `engine_version` (string): Engine build that produced these figures.
- `min_completeness` (number|null): Filings below this threshold are excluded rather than published wrong.
- `model` (string)
- `results` (array)
