## 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**: 74/100
  - 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.
  - 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**: 73/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 4787 tokens (~341/item across 14 items; 13 tools + 1 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**: 98/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 92% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (85% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "send_feedback" implies "send" and declares readOnlyHint instead, contradicting what its own name says it does.
  - An AI judge read all 15 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).
  - Supports UI / widget rendering.

## MCP tools (13)

### `search_images` (~503 tokens)

Search StockCake Images

Natural-language search over StockCake's catalog. total_results is the total number of matches across the whole catalog, not just this page. refinements lists exact mood/style values for this query with counts (how many current matches carry each); both are exact filters, so a small count means few results. Start with a short query; when total_results is small or off-target, retry with fewer keywords or different phrasing.

Input parameters:

- `color` (string): Dominant color, e.g. a hex value like #ff0000
- `context` (string, required): In one sentence, what is the user trying to make or find?
- `conversation_id` (string): Pass the exact conversation_id from the server's previous response, unchanged. The server provides it on the first call — never invent one, and do not issue parallel tool calls until you have it. Kee…
- `limit` (integer): Results to return, 1-12 (default 12). Ask for fewer to save tokens.
- `llm_model` (string, required): The exact model identifier you (the assistant) are running as, taken from your system prompt or environment (e.g. "claude-opus-4-8", "gpt-5.2"). Used for analytics only. If you do not know your model…
- `locale` (string): Site locale for the user (default en). Titles and page links are localized; descriptions are English.
- `mood` (string): Exact facet value — pick one from refinements.mood of a previous search_images result (check refinements.counts.mood first: it is a hard filter, not a boost)
- `orientation` (string)
- `page` (integer): Page number, 1-5
- `query` (string, required): Short subject, 2–5 words (e.g. 'red vintage rocket'). Long sentences hurt recall: start short, add one qualifier at a time; if results are thin, drop keywords or rephrase.
- `style` (string): Exact facet value — pick one from refinements.style of a previous search_images result (check refinements.counts.style first: it is a hard filter, not a boost)

Resize Image (Outpaint)

Change an image's aspect ratio by extending the canvas with AI (GPT Image 2.5) — the subject is kept, new area is generated. Charges credits. Output is the model's native size — about 1.5 megapixels, up to 1536 px on the long edge — whatever the source size; the result reports exact dimensions. For print or larger web use, run upscale_image on the result. Waits up to 20 s, then returns a job_id for get_job.

### `send_feedback` (~604 tokens)

Send feedback about this server to its developers. Most important: report a missing capability whenever no available tool fits your task, even if you can work around it (feedback_type "missing_capability"). Also welcome: a tool that failed or confused you, an unhelpful error, or something that worked well. This records the feedback; it does not add or change tools. Do not include user PII or sensitive content.

- `task_completed` (boolean): Optional: whether you still completed the user's task despite the problem.
- `tool_name` (string): Optional: the existing tool this feedback is about (for 'issue' or 'praise'). Leave empty for 'missing_capability' - the point is that no tool fits.

### Is the StockCake MCP server safe to use?

StockCake scores 83 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 StockCake MCP server expose?

StockCake exposes 13 tools: search_images, find_similar_images, get_image, get_license_info, get_account, and 8 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 4,431 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the StockCake MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the StockCake MCP server still maintained?

StockCake 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.
