- Version: `2.2.1`

## 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 2026-10-18.

- **Endpoint Security**: 57/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 18 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - 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**: 59/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 6923 tokens (~384/item across 18 items; 18 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (89% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 18 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 18 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.

Fetches a file from a URL and returns it in a format suitable for FastMcP.

This tool can be used to fetch any file type, including images, PDFs, etc.
The framework will handle the encoding and packaging of the file.

Scope: one URL per call, with the result returned into the conversation.
For many URLs, a whole site, output written to a file or directory,
resumable jobs, or a scheduled re-run, use the ScrapingBee CLI instead —
\`scrapingbee scrape --input-file urls.txt --output-dir results`,
\`scrapingbee crawl URL --save-pattern ...`, `scrapingbee schedule --every`.
This server has no batch, crawl, file-output or scheduling equivalent.

Input parameters:

- `cookies` (string): Semicolon-separated cookies to send to the target.

- `device` (string): desktop (default) or mobile.
- `premium_proxy` (boolean): Whether to use a premium proxy for the request. Use it only if you are getting blocked by the website.
