## 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 2026-11-04.

- **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. 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.
  - 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**: 75/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 554 tokens (~138/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **Tool Coverage**: 93/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 78% 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 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 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.

## MCP tools (4)

### `find_photo_requirements` (~107 tokens)

Find a passport or visa photo document

Search SafeResize's verified list of 110 passport and visa photo documents (60 countries and regions) by country, document or form name, e.g. "US visa", "DS-160", "Schengen", "India OCI", "Dubai". Returns matching documents with their document_id.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Maximum results (default 8)
- `query` (string, required): Country, document or form, e.g. "UK passport" or "DS-160"

### `get_photo_requirements` (~109 tokens)

Get the official photo rules for a document

Official photo rules for one document: printed size, pixel rule, file size in KB, file type, background, head size, other rules, whether a self-made photo is accepted, the official source URL and the date SafeResize checked it, plus a link to make the photo free at saferesize.com.

Input parameters:

- `document_id` (string, required): From find_photo_requirements, e.g. "us-visa", "uk-passport", "schengen-visa", "in-oci"

### `interpret_upload_rules` (~111 tokens)

Read a website's upload rules

Turn the upload rules a website shows (e.g. "JPG only, 10 KB to 50 KB, 200 x 230 pixels" or "PDF not more than 1 MB") into exact numbers: KB limits, a byte range that passes whether the site counts 1 KB as 1,000 or 1,024 bytes, pixels, file type, and the SafeResize tool that fixes the file.

Input parameters:

- `text` (string, required): The rules exactly as the website writes them

### `check_file_numbers` (~105 tokens)

Check file numbers against upload rules

Check a file's size in bytes, pixels and type against a website's upload rules, without sending the file. Use when you already know the numbers (e.g. from the file's properties).

Input parameters:

- `file_size_bytes` (integer): Exact size in bytes
- `format` (string): jpg, png, webp or pdf
- `height` (integer)
- `rules_text` (string, required): The website's rules as written
- `width` (integer)
