## 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 2026-10-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 77/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 61/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1049 tokens (~149/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**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 82/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 45% 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 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 8 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (7)

### `list_languages` (~24 tokens)

Languages

The 60 languages Ordkort teaches and explains in, with their codes.

### `list_topics` (~33 tokens)

Topics

The built-in topics for word lists (greetings, food, the doctor, documents and public services…), with their ids.

### `ready_words` (~131 tokens)

Ready words for a topic

Words already in Ordkort's shared bank for a topic and level, with translations, forms and examples. Nouns and verbs have been checked against dictionaries. May be empty for a rare pair of languages; then write the words yourself.

Input parameters:

- `count` (integer)
- `level` (string)
- `native` (string, required): A language code from list_languages, such as "nb", "en", "uk"
- `target` (string, required): A language code from list_languages, such as "nb", "en", "uk"
- `topic` (string, required): A topic id from list_topics

### `find_pictures` (~156 tokens)

Find free pictures

Openly licensed pictures for a word: first the Wikimedia Commons picture of the Wikidata item the word names (found in the word's own language, so "hus" in nb finds a house), then Pixabay's photos and drawings, then Openverse's, sorted so those whose title or tags hold the word come first. Give the bare word without its article, and its language. Each has an image_url to put on a card and a credit to show with it. Look at the credit: it names the picture.

Input parameters:

- `language` (string): The language of the word (a code from list_languages); default "en"
- `query` (string, required): The word, without its article ("hus", not "et hus")

### `design_guide` (~40 tokens)

How to design a look

How a card is built, the fields and pictures a template can use, and the CSS variables and parts of the site. Read it before create_design.

### `create_deck` (~232 tokens)

Make a deck

Makes a deck of up to 500 cards and returns a link. When the person opens the link, Ordkort shows the deck and adds it to their cards if they agree. Pictures are given by an https address (for example from find_pictures), and so is the deck's cover (cover_url), a small picture shown instead of the emoji. The link works for a year.

Input parameters:

- `cards` (array, required)
- `cover_credit` (string): Whom to credit for the cover, with the licence
- `cover_url` (string): Optional: an https address of a small picture for the deck, shown instead of the emoji (a square crop of it, 64 px). For example the first result of find_pictures for the topic.
- `emoji` (string)
- `level` (string)
- `native` (string, required): A language code from list_languages, such as "nb", "en", "uk"
- `target` (string, required): A language code from list_languages, such as "nb", "en", "uk"
- `title` (string, required)

### `create_design` (~239 tokens)

Make a look for cards

Makes a look for Ordkort and returns a link that shows it and applies it if the person agrees. Read design_guide first. front_html and back_html are card templates with fields in double braces: {{term}}, {{translation}}, {{pronunciation}}, {{grammar}}, {{forms}}, {{example}}, {{example_translation}}, {{image}}, {{audio}}, {{deck}}; {{#example}}…{{/example}} shows its inside only when the card has an example. The card's picture: <img src="{{image}}"> or var(--card-image) in CSS. Pictures by https address (CSS url() or <img src>) are fetched once by Ordkort, at most 8. card_css styles the cards, site_css the whole site through CSS variables (--paper, --card, --ink, --blue, --font-serif…). Scripts and event handlers are removed. The answer may carry notes on what will not work as meant.

Input parameters:

- `back_html` (string)
- `card_css` (string)
- `front_html` (string)
- `name` (string, required)
- `site_css` (string)
