## 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 2026-08-20.

- **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 6 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**: 73/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 382 tokens (~63/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - 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.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 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.

### 2026-08-20 (score 64, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 3 to 7. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 1 days of observed history at the previous scan, 2 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

### 2026-08-19 (score 63, 0)

- [functional improvement] Stability: unverified → 0.03

### 2026-08-18 (score 63)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (6)

### `scan_trust` (~65 tokens)

Run Obelisk's public trust scan on an https URL — TLS and security-header posture, scored as an Obelisk Rating. Read-only, SSRF-guarded.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): The https URL to scan, e.g. https://example.com

### `verify_token` (~68 tokens)

Verify that a JSON Web Token was minted by this Obelisk Gate (ES256, correct issuer) and report its type, subject, assurance, and principal. Never returns secrets.

Input parameters:

- `token` (string, required): A compact-serialized JWT issued by Obelisk (id_token or access token).

### `get_org_rating` (~52 tokens)

Read the public Obelisk Rating (0-100 score, trust band, and trend) for a registered organization by its slug.

Input parameters:

- `org` (string, required): The organization slug, e.g. acme.

### `transparency_head` (~51 tokens)

Read the current signed transparency head of Obelisk's tamper-evident receipt ledger — pin it and compare later to prove history only extends. Same data as /.well-known/obelisk-transparency.json.

### `gate_status` (~36 tokens)

Read the Gate's public liveness facts: issuer, served code revision, OIDC availability, and supported protocols. No posture internals.

### `explain_rating` (~77 tokens)

Deterministically explain what an Obelisk Rating number means: its trust band, how the public scan scores, and what typically moves a score. Pure function of the number — no data is read.

Input parameters:

- `rating` (number, required): A 0-100 Obelisk Rating, e.g. from scan_trust or get_org_rating.
