## 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 2026-09-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - 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 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**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1537 tokens (~192/item across 8 items; 8 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 70/100
  - Stability observed for 21 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 92/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 76% 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 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 9 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## MCP tools (8)

### `search_catalog` (~249 tokens)

Search the Promotion Pros catalog

Find custom branded merchandise by keywords (e.g. "insulated tumbler", "trade show tote bag", "eco pen") with optional category, color, size and price filters. Returns product summaries with a from-price and the handle to pass to get_product or quote_price. Results are ranked by relevance unless sorted by price. Omit `query` to browse: with a `category` and no keywords this returns that category, which is how to answer an occasion or gifting ask. When nothing matches, facets.categories lists the categories worth browsing instead and `notes` says so.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): A category name from a previous result's facets, e.g. "Drinkware", "2026 Gift Guide".
- `color` (string)
- `page` (integer): Zero-based page.
- `page_size` (integer)
- `price_max` (number): Maximum from-price per unit, USD.
- `price_min` (number): Minimum from-price per unit, USD.
- `query` (string): Keywords, a product name, or a SKU. Omit to browse everything the other filters allow.
- `size` (string)
- `sort` (string)

### `lookup_catalog` (~48 tokens)

Look up several products

Full UCP product records for up to 6 products by id or handle, in one call. Use get_product for one.

Input parameters:

- `ids` (array, required): Product ids or handles (slugs).

### `get_product` (~76 tokens)

Get a product

The full UCP product record: description, images, categories, colors, sizes, decoration methods, price range, minimum quantity, lead time, and whether a free sample is offered. For a price at a specific quantity, call quote_price.

Input parameters:

- `product` (object, required): Identify the product by exactly one of slug, id or sku.

### `quote_price` (~192 tokens)

Quote a quantity

Price an order of a given quantity: per-unit price at that quantity, one-time setup, run charges, rush and tariff, the subtotal (before shipping and tax), whether the quantity is orderable, the next price break, and a deep_link that opens promotionpros.com on exactly this configuration with the same total. Optionally choose color, decoration method, number of imprint colors, per-size quantities and rush.

Input parameters:

- `color` (string): Product color name, from get_product_options.
- `imprint_colors` (integer): Number of ink colors in the logo on the primary location.
- `imprint_method` (string): Decoration method name, from get_imprint_options.
- `product` (object, required): Identify the product by exactly one of slug, id or sku.
- `quantity` (integer): Total pieces.
- `rush` (boolean)
- `sizes` (array): Per-size quantities for apparel; replaces quantity.

### `get_imprint_options` (~96 tokens)

Get decoration options

How a product can be decorated: each imprint method with its minimum and maximum quantity, setup charge and whether it is one-time or per additional location, whether the first imprint is included in the unit price, extra-color and extra-location run charges, imprint locations with their sizes and color limits, and guidance on when to use the method.

Input parameters:

- `product` (object, required): Identify the product by exactly one of slug, id or sku.

### `get_product_options` (~84 tokens)

Get colors, sizes and pricing tiers

The choices before a quote: colors (with hex), sizes with their quantity price ladders, whether sizes are priced differently, quantity step, stock by color and size when tracked, free shipping, lead time and rush availability, and the free-sample link when the product qualifies.

Input parameters:

- `product` (object, required): Identify the product by exactly one of slug, id or sku.

### `estimate_delivery` (~147 tokens)

Estimate delivery date

When an order placed today would arrive: the standard FedEx Ground date and, when the product offers it, the rush date — both in one call. Give the buyer's US state for a real shipping lane; dates are business days from today in Central time and include the free proof, production and transit. Rush skips the proof wait and starts the same business day when artwork arrives before noon Central.

Input parameters:

- `destination_state` (string): Where it ships to: a US state code ("IL") or full name ("Illinois"). Omit if unknown — a typical US transit is assumed. US only.
- `product` (object, required): Identify the product by exactly one of slug, id or sku.

### `create_instant_quote` (~378 tokens)

Issue a formal quote

Issue a real, numbered Promotion Pros quote for a configuration priced with quote_price, and email it to the buyer. Returns the quote number, the reconciled price breakdown, a PDF, a link to the quote page and a link that takes the buyer straight to payment. Requires the buyer's full name, work email and phone number — ask for them, and confirm the configuration and the quantity, before calling this. This writes: it creates an order record and sends mail, and calling it twice issues two quotes to the same person. The price is recomputed live by promotionpros.com, so it can differ slightly from quote_price's snapshot; the numbers returned here are the quoted ones. Shipping and tax are not in the quote until the buyer adds a delivery address on the quote page.

Input parameters:

- `color` (string): Product color name, from get_product_options.
- `company` (string)
- `destination_state` (string): Where it ships to, for the arrival estimate recorded on the quote: a US state code ("IL") or name. Omit if unknown.
- `email` (string, required): The buyer's work email. The quote is sent here, so confirm it before calling.
- `full_name` (string, required): The buyer's full name, as they gave it.
- `imprint_colors` (integer)
- `imprint_method` (string): Decoration method name, from get_imprint_options.
- `phone` (string, required): A phone number to reach the buyer on. Required by the quote desk.
- `product` (object, required): Identify the product by exactly one of slug, id or sku.
- `quantity` (integer): Total pieces. Below the method's minimum, the quote is issued at the minimum.
- `rush` (boolean)
- `sizes` (array): Per-size quantities for apparel; replaces quantity.
