## 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 2026-11-05.

- **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 49 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**: 63/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 9227 tokens (~188/item across 49 items; 49 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - 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**: 99/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 98% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "palanor_executive_pay" implies "pay" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default.
  - An AI judge read all 50 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **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.

### 2026-11-05 (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.

### 2026-11-04 (score 63, 0)

Input parameters:

- `region` (string): Optional region filter.

### `palanor_get_embed_code` (~199 tokens)

Get the embed code for a live Palanor chart of one signal or Custom Index: an iframe that renders the series with its source line, license and a link back to its methodology page. Use it when a user wants to put a Palanor chart on a web page, blog post or dashboard. Only charts whose data may be redistributed embed (public-domain and openly licensed sources, Palanor-derived series, public Custom Indices); market prices never do, and the result says why when a chart cannot be embedded.

Input parameters:

- `index` (string): Custom Index slug, with or without the palanor_ prefix (e.g. consumer_health).
- `range` (string): Time window shown (default 5y).
- `signal` (string): Signal slug (e.g. rates.spread_2y10y). Pass this or `index`.
- `theme` (string): Colour theme; auto follows the reader's setting (default).

### `palanor_create_chart` (~293 tokens)

Render a Palanor Studio chart (PNG) of 1–4 public signals — the same brand-locked chart, verification and licence checks the Studio uses. Asynchronous: returns a job id; call palanor_get_chart until status is "done" (typically under a minute), then use the image URL. Numbers are never typed: omit `claim` for a default, or write one with tokens such as "{{a.last|1}}" (a = first signal, b = second…; also .first, .min, .max, .change, .as_of, .first_x, .last_x). A digit written into `claim` fails verification. Only redistributable signals chart; market prices (equities, ETFs, crypto, FX) do not. Allowance: Free 10 a month, Pro 25 a day, Enterprise 200 a day.

Input parameters:

- `claim` (string): The headline sentence, numbers as tokens only.
- `does_not_say` (string): Finishes "What it does not say: …".
- `formats` (array): single (default) and/or square.

- `to` (string): YYYY-MM-DD. Default latest.

### `palanor_get_chart` (~76 tokens)

Status of a chart started with palanor_create_chart; checking does not count against your monthly requests. When status is "done" it returns the PNG URL(s), the resolved headline, the licence attribution lines to print with it, and the values charted.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Job id from palanor_create_chart.

### `palanor_get_observations` (~261 tokens)

A signal's observations between two dates from the Palanor lattice, oldest first, up to 1,000 per call (page with `offset` while `pagination.has_more`). Use it for a series over a set window, e.g. the 2y10y Treasury spread since 2020; palanor_get_signal gives the latest value and its context. Every result carries the provenance block of the signal's source.

Input parameters:

- `agg` (string): How a period becomes one value (default last: the closing reading).
- `end` (string): Optional YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive.
- `freq` (string): Optional: one value per period, dated the period's last day. Omit for every observation.

- `vintage` (string): latest (default): values as revised today. first: each observation as first published (available only where licensed for redistribution).

### `palanor_get_foresight` (~205 tokens)

Palanor Foresight™ for one signal: the projected value at a horizon with a band that holds about two in three outcomes, and the projected path. The horizon depends on the series: 30 days for daily to monthly data, 1 year for quarterly, 3 years for annual. `method` is the disclosure printed under Palanor charts: the blend and the related signals it reads. A source's own published forecast is not projected again. Pro and Enterprise keys. Requires a Pro or Enterprise key.

Input parameters:

- `horizon` (string): Optional: days ("30"), a span ("30d", "12w", "6m", "1y") or a date (YYYY-MM-DD). Default: the full horizon.

### `palanor_search_signals` (~106 tokens)

Find signals in the Palanor lattice by meaning and keywords, e.g. "yield curve", "used car prices", "Canada unemployment". Returns only signals the API serves, each with its slug, latest value and source, so every slug works in palanor_get_signal and palanor_get_observations.

## Common questions

### What is the Palanor MCP server?

Palanor is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.palanor/mcp. Read the Palanor lattice: 50,000+ economic signals, Custom Indices, Currents and the Wire. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.palanor.com).

### Is the Palanor MCP server safe to use?

Palanor scores 64 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Palanor MCP server expose?

Palanor exposes 49 tools: palanor_list_signals, palanor_get_signal, palanor_list_indices, palanor_get_index, palanor_list_currents, and 44 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 9,091 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Palanor MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Palanor without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the Palanor MCP server still maintained?

Palanor is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
