## 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**: 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 9 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**: 67/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1431 tokens (~159/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 20/100
  - Stability observed for 6 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.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (9)

### `search_skins` (~255 tokens)

Search CS2 skins

Search and filter Counter-Strike 2 weapon skins by name, weapon, rarity, collection or case. Returns skin names, rarities, wear ranges and the cheapest current listing price in cents. Use get_skin_detail for a single skin with per-wear prices.

Input parameters:

- `collection` (string): Collection slug.
- `crate` (string): Case or capsule slug.
- `page` (integer): Page number.
- `per_page` (integer): Results per page, 1 to 25. Defaults to 10.
- `rarity` (string): Rarity name, for example "Covert", "Classified", "Restricted", "Mil-Spec Grade".
- `search` (string): Free-text skin name search, for example "Redline". Used alone it also returns matching weapons; combined with any other argument it filters the paginated skin list instead.
- `sort` (string): Result ordering. Defaults to name. "popularity" ranks by listing quantity.
- `souvenir` (boolean): Only skins available as Souvenir.
- `stattrak` (boolean): Only skins available as StatTrak.
- `weapon` (string): Weapon slug, for example "ak-47" or "desert-eagle".

### `get_skin_detail` (~121 tokens)

Get CS2 skin detail

Get one Counter-Strike 2 skin with its float range, per-wear prices, collections and cases. Optionally includes the catalog Trade Up context: which rarity tier the skin sits in and what it can be traded up into.

Input parameters:

- `include_tradeup_context` (boolean): Include the catalog Trade Up context for this skin. This is contract math derived from the collection, not scanner output.

- `weapon_slug` (string, required): Weapon slug, for example "ak-47".

### `browse_collections` (~197 tokens)

Input parameters:

- `include_tradeup_map` (boolean): Only with slug. Adds the collection Trade Up map showing each rarity tier and its possible outputs.
- `page` (integer): Page number.
- `per_page` (integer): Results per page, 1 to 25.
- `search` (string): Free-text collection name search.
- `slug` (string): Collection slug. When set, returns that collection with its contents instead of the list.
- `sort` (string): List ordering: newest, oldest or name. For a single collection the contents order: rarity, name, price_asc or price_desc.
- `type` (string): Filter the list by what the collection contains.

### `browse_cases` (~167 tokens)

Browse CS2 cases

List Counter-Strike 2 cases, capsules and souvenir packages, or get one container with its contents plus its drop odds and expected opening value. Odds use the standard CS2 tier weights and are renormalised over the tiers actually present.

Input parameters:

- `page` (integer): Page number.
- `per_page` (integer): Results per page, 1 to 25.
- `search` (string): Free-text container name search.
- `slug` (string): Container slug. When set, returns that container with its contents and opening odds instead of the list.
- `sort` (string): List ordering: newest, oldest or name. For a single container the contents order: rarity, name, price_asc or price_desc.
- `type` (string): Filter the list by container type.

### `get_case_roi_ranking` (~68 tokens)

Get CS2 case ROI ranking

Rank Counter-Strike 2 cases by expected return on opening. Each entry gives the case price, expected value, return in basis points and the chance of an opening being profitable, all computed from current listing prices plus the key price. Cases whose contents are not sufficiently priced are excluded.

### `get_armory_roi` (~88 tokens)

Get CS2 Armory rotation value

List the current Counter-Strike 2 Armory rotation tiles with their credit cost and expected value, or get one tile with every item it can produce and the rarity weighting. Use this to compare what Armory credits are worth across the current rotation.

Input parameters:

- `slug` (string): Armory tile slug. When set, returns that tile with its full item list instead of the rotation overview.

### `browse_bargains` (~106 tokens)

Browse cheap CS2 skins

Find cheap Counter-Strike 2 skins grouped into price-threshold pages, for example AK-47 skins under 10 dollars or the cheapest knives. Without a slug it lists every available page; with a slug it returns the skins on that page with their current cheapest listing price.

Input parameters:

- `slug` (string): Bargain page slug, for example "ak-47-skins-under-10-dollars" or "cheapest-knives". Omit to list every available page.

### `search_cosmetics` (~141 tokens)

Search CS2 cosmetic items

Search Counter-Strike 2 cosmetic items that are not weapon skins: stickers, charms, agents, patches, graffiti and music kits. Returns names and cheapest listing prices, or one item with its full detail including per-marketplace prices.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string, required): Which kind of cosmetic item to search.
- `page` (integer): Page number.
- `per_page` (integer): Results per page, 1 to 25.

Get CS2 Trade Up preview

Get the free preview of the SkinGrind Trade Up scanner: the featured Trade Ups with their full recipes, the number of contracts currently active, and locked teasers for recent finds showing their economics and when they unlock. Full recipes for the whole feed need a SkinGrind account and the authenticated server.

Input parameters:

- `type` (string): Which Trade Up feed to preview: "profitable" for contract Trade Ups, "knife" for knife and glove Trade Ups, or "all". Defaults to all.
