## 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 3 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**: 58/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 741 tokens (~247/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 71/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 0% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); 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.

### 2026-08-03 (score 63, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 23 to 27. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 7 days of observed history at the previous scan, 8 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

### 2026-08-01 (score 62, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 17 to 20. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 5 days of observed history at the previous scan, 6 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

### 2026-07-31 (score 61, +2)

## MCP tools (3)

### `get_climate_data` (~347 tokens)

Get climate observations from NOAA Climate Data Online.

    Returns historical weather measurements such as temperature, precipitation,
    and snowfall. You must provide either a station_id or a FIPS code to
    identify the location, and a date range.

    Args:
        station_id: NOAA station identifier (e.g. 'GHCND:USW00094728' for Central Park).
        fips: FIPS code for county or state (e.g. '36' for New York state, '36061' for Manhattan).
        dataset: Dataset ID. Common values: 'GHCND' (daily summaries), 'GSOM' (monthly),
                 'GSOY' (annual), 'NORMAL_DLY' (daily normals). Default is 'GHCND'.
        start_date: Start date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Required for most datasets.
        end_date: End date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Required for most datasets.
        data_types: Comma-separated data type IDs to filter. Common types:
                    TMAX (max temp), TMIN (min temp), TAVG (avg temp),
                    PRCP (precipitation), SNOW (snowfall), SNWD (snow depth),
                    AWND (avg wind speed). If omitted, all available types are returned.
        limit: Maximum number of records to return (default 100, max 1000).

Input parameters:

- `data_types` (string)
- `dataset` (string)
- `end_date` (string)
- `fips` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `start_date` (string)
- `station_id` (string)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `find_stations` (~168 tokens)

Find NOAA weather stations in an area.

    Returns a list of weather stations with their IDs, names, coordinates,
    and active date ranges. Use the station IDs with get_climate_data.

    Args:
        state: Two-letter US state abbreviation (e.g. 'CA', 'NY').
        county_fips: Five-digit county FIPS code (e.g. '36061' for Manhattan).
        dataset: Dataset ID to filter stations that have data in this dataset.
                 Default is 'GHCND' (daily summaries).
        limit: Maximum number of stations to return (default 25, max 1000).

Input parameters:

- `county_fips` (string)
- `dataset` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `state` (string)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `get_climate_normals` (~226 tokens)

Get 30-year climate normal values for a NOAA weather station.

    Climate normals are averages computed over the most recent 30-year period
    (currently 1991-2020). They represent typical conditions for a location
    and are useful for comparing current conditions to historical baselines.

    Args:
        station_id: NOAA station identifier (e.g. 'GHCND:USW00094728').
                    Use find_stations to look up station IDs.
        data_types: Comma-separated normal data type IDs to filter. Common types:
                    DLY-TMAX-NORMAL (avg daily max temp), DLY-TMIN-NORMAL (avg daily min temp),
                    DLY-TAVG-NORMAL (avg daily temp), DLY-PRCP-PCTALL-GE001HI (precip probability),
                    MTD-PRCP-NORMAL (monthly precip), ANN-TMAX-NORMAL (annual max temp).
                    If omitted, all available normals are returned.

Input parameters:

- `data_types` (string)
- `station_id` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)
