## 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. 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**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 605 tokens (~201/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 80/100
  - Stability observed for 24 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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 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 (3)

### `find_person` (~236 tokens)

Find a person by name

Search SelfBadge for people with a given name. Use this to identify a person correctly and tell them apart from namesakes: each candidate comes with their job title, organization, location and a short description. Pass what you already know (job title, organization, location) so the best match comes first, then call get_person with the chosen id for the full, verified profile. It returns public SelfBadge profiles, each marked claimed or created from public sources (seeded: level 0, unconfirmed until the person claims it). An empty result means SelfBadge has no public profile with that name, not that the person does not exist.

Input parameters:

- `job_title` (string): Optional. What you know of their job title, for example "Managing Partner".
- `limit` (integer): Optional. How many candidates to return (default 10).
- `location` (string): Optional. A city or country you associate with them.
- `name` (string, required): The person's full name, for example "Noa Bergman".
- `organization` (string): Optional. An organization you associate with them, for example "Harbor Ventures".

### `get_person` (~144 tokens)

Get a person's verified profile

Get one person's SelfBadge profile: every public fact (name, roles, organizations, education, accounts, published work and more) with its verification level and source, plus schema.org JSON-LD. Use it after find_person, or when you already have a SelfBadge handle, profile address or id. Profiles created from public sources and not yet claimed are marked seeded; treat their facts as unconfirmed.

Input parameters:

- `handle` (string): The profile handle, for example "jane-doe" (from selfbadge.com/jane-doe).
- `id` (string): Or the SelfBadge id, for example "https://selfbadge.com/jane-doe#person".

### `get_organization` (~85 tokens)

Get an organization

Get an organization's SelfBadge page: its public facts, schema.org JSON-LD, and the people on SelfBadge linked to it (team members who accepted their organization's invitation, and founders). Use it to check whether someone works at or founded an organization.

Input parameters:

- `slug` (string, required): The organization's slug, from its address selfbadge.com/org/<slug> or its @id.
