## 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**: 80/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation.
  - 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**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1263 tokens (~126/item across 10 items; 10 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 37/100
  - Stability observed for 11 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 94/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 83% 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.
  - All 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 11 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.

Can we deliver to a UK postcode, how, and on which dates. Pass the model to get dates that allow for the item's stock. Returns own_team (London and the South East), palletline_kerbside (rest of mainland Great Britain, with charge) or not_available, with available dates.

### `send_enquiry` (~164 tokens)

Send an enquiry

Send an enquiry to the Ruislip Appliances sales team on the customer's behalf: reserve an appliance, ask for a delivery slot, a price or stock question, installation or a special order. Only use with the customer's agreement and their real contact details. Needs a name and a phone number or email. The team replies during opening hours.

### `basket_link` (~181 tokens)

Make a basket link

Make a link to our website's basket with these appliances already in it: new items by model number, and/or specific graded units by graded_id (at their graded price). The customer opens it, enters their address, chooses a delivery date and pays on our site. Nothing is ordered or paid until the customer does that. For graded units you must first show the customer the grade and condition notes and offer the photos (get_graded_photos), then set condition_shown_to_customer.

Input parameters:

- `condition_shown_to_customer` (boolean): Required true when graded_ids is used: the customer has seen each graded unit's grade and condition notes and been offered the photos

### `create_basket` (~178 tokens)

Create a ready-to-pay basket

Create a shared basket with the items AND the customer's contact and delivery details (and delivery date), and get a link. The customer opens it on any device, lands on our checkout with everything filled in, reviews it and pays. Use check_delivery first for valid dates. For graded units the same rule as basket_link applies: show grade, condition notes and photos first, then set condition_shown_to_customer. Only use the customer's real details, with their agreement.

Input parameters:

- `comment` (string): Delivery instructions, e.g. access or parking
- `condition_shown_to_customer` (boolean): Required true when graded_ids is used
- `customer` (object)

- `models` (array): Model numbers of NEW items

### `get_graded_photos` (~79 tokens)

Graded unit photos

Photos of one graded unit's cosmetic condition (marks, dents, scratches), returned as images you can look at and show the customer, with the grade and condition notes. Use before putting a graded unit in a basket.

Input parameters:

- `graded_id` (integer, required): graded_id from get_product graded_options
- `max_photos` (integer)

## Common questions

### What is the Ruislip Appliances MCP server?

Ruislip Appliances is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.ruislipappliances/shop. UK appliance shop: live prices, stock and graded deals, delivery dates, enquiries, baskets. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://www.ruislipappliances.com/mcp).

### Is the Ruislip Appliances MCP server safe to use?

Ruislip Appliances scores 77 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 Ruislip Appliances MCP server expose?

Ruislip Appliances exposes 10 tools: search_products, get_product, list_departments, list_brands, check_delivery, and 5 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,147 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Ruislip Appliances MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the Ruislip Appliances MCP server still maintained?

Ruislip Appliances 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.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Ruislip Appliances MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 13 checks on Ruislip Appliances, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 9 more. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
