Available components
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. How we score →
Endpoint Security74
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability78
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1612 tokens (~268/item across 6 items; 5 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

search_episodes_by_topic Search Episodes by Topic ~359
Semantic topic search across the podcast catalog. Unlike `search_episodes` (which does lexical/keyword matching), this tool understands meaning: a query for 'AI safety' will match episodes about 'AI alignment', 'AGI risk', or 'frontier model evaluation' even if they don't contain the exact phrase. Returns ranked episodes with the matched topic phrases so you can explain *why* each result is relevant before fetching the transcript. Best for conceptual or thematic queries — use `search_episodes` instead when the user is looking for a specific person, product, or verbatim phrase.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | integer | — | Zero-based episode offset for pagination. Use the `next_cursor` returned by a prior search/listing call to fetch the next page of results. |

| published_after | — | — | Inclusive lower publication-date bound. Accepts YYYY-MM-DD or ISO 8601 datetime. |
| published_before | — | — | Inclusive upper publication-date bound. Accepts YYYY-MM-DD or ISO 8601 datetime. |
| show_guid | string | — | Optional canonical show GUID (as returned by `search_episodes` or `get_latest_episodes` in the `show_guid` field) to restrict topic search to a single podcast. Leave empty to search across all shows. |
| topic | string | yes | Semantic topic to find episodes about. Free-form phrasing welcome — the server embeds this string and finds episodes whose extracted topic phrases are closest in meaning. Good examples: 'AI safety',… |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | integer | yes | Number of episodes returned on this page. |
| episodes | array | yes | Episodes ranked by best topic-phrase similarity to the query. |

| query | string | yes | The topic query that was embedded and searched. |
| total_count | integer | yes | Number of matching episodes, counted over the nearest-match candidate window rather than the whole catalog. When `total_count_is_approximate` is true, treat this as a lower bound — broad queries may… |
| total_count_is_approximate | boolean | — | True when the candidate window was exhausted, so `total_count` undercounts the true number of matches. When false, `total_count` is exact. Refine the query for tighter results if this is true and you… |
