## 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**: 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**: 44/100
  - 0% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 2952 tokens (~101/item across 29 items; 24 tools + 5 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 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.

### 2026-08-02 (score 62, +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.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (24)

### `login` (~84 tokens)

Log in

Claude Code plugin login only (auth_token flow). On the web/desktop connector, identity
comes from the connector's OAuth approval — do NOT ask the user to type their email/password
into the chat; direct them to the connector's 'Log in with Ripostiq' or ripostiq.com instead.

Input parameters:

- `email` (string, required)
- `password` (string, required)

### `whoami` (~29 tokens)

Who am I

Return the current logged-in user (via OAuth bearer or an auth_token).

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`

### `get_entitlements` (~32 tokens)

Get entitlements

List the logged-in account's entitlements across courses (OAuth bearer or auth_token).

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`

### `get_lesson` (~67 tokens)

Get lesson

Fetch a module's lesson content. Free module is open; paid modules require an
active entitlement. Returns {locked, teaser, checkout_url} when not entitled.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)
- `module` (string, required)
- `section`

### `list_courses` (~103 tokens)

List courses

List every available Ripostiq course (no login needed). Call this FIRST when a user wants
to browse or start learning. Each course has a free Module 1 anyone can start immediately via
begin_course(course) → teach_section. Returns the `course` id to pass to other tools.
For a logged-in learner this also includes courses THEY authored (marked `mine`, with their
\`visibility`) — offer those alongside the catalog.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`

### `begin_course` (~56 tokens)

Begin course

Start a course. Returns the tutor protocol, intake guidance, and the module map.
Call this first, run the intake, then call teach_section to teach Module 1.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)

### `roast` (~155 tokens)

Roast my work

Free 'Roast my work' — a single tough-but-fair stakeholder grilling of ANY artifact the
user pastes (PRD, architecture, code, pitch, resume, plan, essay…). No login or course
needed. `work` is the artifact (or a solid description); `kind` optionally hints the type
(prd/architecture/code/pitch/strategy/resume/design…) to pick the right persona; `focus` is
what they most want pushback on. Returns the roast protocol + a course recommendation. Great
as an entry point when someone wants honest, pointed feedback on real work.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `focus`
- `kind`
- `work` (string, required)

### `interview_prep` (~146 tokens)

Mock interview

Free 'Mock interview' — a realistic, calibrated interview for a role. `jd_or_skill` is the
job description (paste it) or the skill/role to interview against; `role` and `experience`
(e.g. 'senior backend engineer', '5 years') calibrate difficulty; `focus` narrows it (e.g.
'system design'). No login or course needed. Returns the interview protocol + a course
recommendation. Great when someone is prepping for an interview and wants a real grilling.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `experience`
- `focus`
- `jd_or_skill` (string, required)
- `role`

### `list_interviews` (~90 tokens)

List interview-prep topics

List the curated Interview-Prep topics (e.g. 'Agentic AI in Production'). Each is a
realistic, adaptive mock interview on a fixed topic — concept→scenario question pairs across
several areas — that ends in a candid scorecard. No login or course needed. Call this when
someone wants to prep for an interview on a topic the catalog covers, then start_interview.

### `start_interview` (~167 tokens)

Start interview prep

Begin a curated Interview-Prep session on a fixed topic. `interview` is the topic id from
list_interviews (e.g. 'agentic-ai-in-production'); `role`/`experience` calibrate difficulty.
LOGIN REQUIRED (free in the current beta, like a course): if the learner isn't logged in this
returns needs_login — ask them to log in with the connector, don't run the questions. Once
unlocked, returns the question bank + an adaptive protocol (one question at a time across ~4-5
areas, concept then scenario, hint when stuck, scorecard at the end). Save it with
save_interview.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `experience`
- `interview` (string, required)
- `role`

### `teach_section` (~88 tokens)

Teach section

Get one lesson section's content + the teaching protocol for it. Free module is
open; paid modules require an active entitlement (returns {locked, teaser} if not).
Teach it socratically, then call again with section_index+1 to advance.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)
- `module` (string, required)
- `section_index` (integer)

### `run_boss` (~155 tokens)

Run boss battle

Get the module's boss-battle simulation + how to run it (in-character, real stakes,
earned PASS). Gated like lessons. `difficulty` dials the intensity — 'friendly' (supportive
coach), 'standard' (default), or 'brutal' (relentless, skeptical, high bar) — and optional
\`persona_style` sets a flavor (e.g. 'skeptical CTO', 'hostile board member'). The rubric is
unchanged; only how hard the stakeholder presses. Offer the learner the choice first.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)
- `difficulty`
- `module` (string, required)
- `persona_style`

### `daily_drill` (~104 tokens)

Two-minute daily drill

The two-minute drill — today's spaced-recall question + the learner's day streak. Call it
to fetch today's question (deterministic per day, drawn from modules they've started); after
they answer and you reveal it, call again with done=true to log it and bump the streak. A
daily habit: one question, two minutes, keep the streak alive.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)
- `done` (boolean)

### `start_exam` (~138 tokens)

Start practice exam

Start the course's SCORED PRACTICE EXAM — a full, blueprint-aligned multiple-choice mock
that returns a scaled score against the real pass line, a per-domain breakdown, and rationale
for every question. Login + entitlement gated like the paid capstone (returns needs_login /
locked if not). Returns a drawn `form` of questions WITHOUT the answers (the key is held
server-side); proctor them one at a time, collect the learner's letters, then call
submit_exam(course, answers) to score. Never reveal or answer the questions yourself.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)

### `submit_exam` (~123 tokens)

Submit exam answers and score the attempt

Score a practice exam started with start_exam. `answers` maps each question id to the
learner's chosen letter, e.g. {"q001": "A", "q002": "C"}; unanswered questions score as
incorrect. Returns the scaled score, PASS/FAIL vs the pass line, a per-domain breakdown, and
the per-question rationale for review. Deliver it as an honest scorecard and point them to the
weak domains' modules.

Input parameters:

- `answers` (object, required)
- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)

### `get_outline` (~56 tokens)

Get course outline

Full course outline — every module + its section titles — so the learner can pick ANY
module/section to start, in any order. Marks locked modules and their progress.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)

### `mark_progress` (~111 tokens)

Update saved progress

Record the learner's progress server-side (shows on their account + syncs across
devices). Call when a section is genuinely completed (section_id), or after a boss battle
(boss='passed'/'failed', boss_attempt=true), or on a lab status change (lab=...).

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `boss`
- `boss_attempt` (boolean)
- `course` (string, required)
- `lab`
- `module` (string, required)
- `section_id`

### `get_recap` (~54 tokens)

Get recap

Resume briefing for a returning learner — what they've covered, mastery levels,
strong/weak topics, and recall questions to reactivate memory. Call at session start.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)

### `get_progress` (~72 tokens)

Get progress

Return the learner's progress for a course — the raw doc plus a display-ready summary
(per-module sections done/total, boss status, overall percent, current position), and
wind_down coverage (which modules have their cheatsheet + session summary saved).

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)

### `recall_questions` (~43 tokens)

Recall questions

Return spaced-recall questions drawn from the account's completed modules.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token` (string, required)
- `count` (integer)
- `course` (string, required)

### `list_artifacts` (~66 tokens)

List library

List the learner's saved Library artifacts (titles + metadata, newest first). Use at
session start (with get_recap) to reference prior work and continue seamlessly.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)
- `module`
- `type`

### `get_artifact` (~67 tokens)

Get artifact

Fetch a saved Library artifact's full content (by id, or by key+course). Use to pull a
prior deliverable forward and build on it in a new chat.

Input parameters:

- `artifact_id`
- `auth_token`
- `course`
- `key`

### `submit_artifact` (~97 tokens)

Submit lab deliverable

Submit a lab deliverable. Stores it in the learner's Library (type='deliverable') and
returns the module rubric so it can be reviewed against the bar. Call get_review next.
For general note-taking use save_artifact instead.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `content_text`
- `course` (string, required)
- `module` (string, required)
- `repo_ref`
- `type` (string, required)

### `get_certificate` (~85 tokens)

Get certificate

Ripostiq certificate status. Pass `module` for that module's certificate (earned when
its boss battle is passed); omit it for the course certificate (earned when EVERY module's
boss is passed). Both are viewable at /certificate and publicly verifiable at /verify/<code>.

Input parameters:

- `auth_token`
- `course` (string, required)
- `module`
