## 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 2026-09-26.

- **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 19 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**: 78/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 2355 tokens (~123/item across 19 items; 19 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 67/100
  - Stability observed for 20 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 19 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 19 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 (19)

### `tariffmonkee-content` (~84 tokens)

Fetch a URL with a real rendered browser (JavaScript executed) and return clean Markdown. Results are cached for 24 hours per URL, so repeat calls for the same page are fast and don't re-render. Costs $0.005 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Absolute http(s) URL of the page to fetch and convert to Markdown.

### `tariffmonkee-extract` (~110 tokens)

Extract structured data from content you already have (e.g. from a prior /content call), using AI. No browser render involved -- pure AI extraction, cheaper and faster than fetching a URL fresh. Use this when you already have the text; use /extract-url if you only have a URL. Costs $0.016 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `content` (string, required): Raw text content to extract data from.
- `schema` (object, required): JSON Schema describing the desired output structure.

### `tariffmonkee-extract-url` (~137 tokens)

Fetch a URL with a real rendered browser and extract structured data from it in one call, using AI (tries multiple models in sequence for reliability). Use this when you don't already have the page content; use the cheaper /extract if you do. Results are cached for 24 hours per URL+schema combination. Costs $0.021 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `prompt` (string): Optional natural-language guidance on what to extract and where it appears.
- `schema` (object, required): JSON Schema describing the desired output structure.
- `url` (string, required): Absolute http(s) URL of the page to extract data from.

### `tariffmonkee-aeo-audit` (~96 tokens)

URL -> AI-readiness report. Checks schema.org structured data, crawlability (robots.txt, meta robots, canonical), and llms.txt presence, then returns a 0-100 score with specific recommendations for what's missing. Results are cached for 24 hours per URL. Costs $0.031 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Absolute http(s) URL of the page to audit.

### `tariffmonkee-search` (~130 tokens)

query -> structured search results (title, url, snippet), up to 10 per call. Backed by three providers with automatic failover (DataForSEO primary, Tavily and Serper as fallback) so a single provider outage doesn't take the endpoint down. Pass region=tw for a Traditional Chinese / Taiwan-region search lane. Results are cached for 24 hours per query+region. Costs $0.005 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `query` (string, required): Search query.
- `region` (string): Optional. Set to 'tw' for Traditional Chinese / Taiwan-region results.

### `tariffmonkee-screenshot` (~104 tokens)

Fetch a URL with a real rendered browser (JavaScript executed) and return a PNG screenshot of the full page. Not JSON -- the response body is the image itself. Results are cached for 24 hours per URL. Cache status and fetch time are reported in the X-Cached and X-Fetched-At response headers. Costs $0.01 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Absolute http(s) URL of the page to screenshot.

### `tariffmonkee-pdf` (~105 tokens)

Fetch a URL with a real rendered browser (JavaScript executed) and return a PDF of the full page. Not JSON -- the response body is the file itself. Results are cached for 24 hours per URL. Cache status and fetch time are reported in the X-Cached and X-Fetched-At response headers. Costs $0.01 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Absolute http(s) URL of the page to convert to PDF.

### `tariffmonkee-linkcheck` (~107 tokens)

URL -> safety verdict. Checks the redirect chain, detects homograph/punycode hostname tricks, and cross-references the destination host against the URLhaus threat feed. Use to vet a single URL before fetching, sharing, or acting on it. For a full domain configuration grade use /sitegrade; for ownership/registration facts use /domain-intel. Costs $0.005 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): Absolute http(s) URL to check.

### `tariffmonkee-sitegrade` (~129 tokens)

Domain -> security letter grade (0-100, A-F) from HTTPS reachability, security headers (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy), and CAA records. Reports HTTPS connect success/failure, not raw cert expiry -- Workers can't read a remote server's cert metadata directly. For registration facts use /domain-intel; for URL reputation use /linkcheck. Costs $0.05 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `domain` (string, required): Bare domain to grade, no scheme.

### `tariffmonkee-domain-intel` (~88 tokens)

Domain -> ownership and registration intelligence via RDAP. Returns registration age, registrar, privacy-proxy status, expiration date, nameservers, and detected mail provider. For technical configuration grading use /sitegrade; for URL-specific reputation use /linkcheck. Costs $0.021 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `domain` (string, required): Bare domain to look up, no scheme.

### `tariffmonkee-email-verify` (~77 tokens)

Email address -> deliverability verdict. Checks syntax, MX record presence, disposable/temp-mail domain match, and SPF/DMARC presence on the domain. Scoped to a single address, not a full domain security audit. Costs $0.003 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `email` (string, required): Email address to verify.

### `tariffmonkee-trust-audit` (~164 tokens)

Orchestrated bundle: runs /linkcheck, /sitegrade, and /domain-intel (plus /email-verify if an email is supplied) and synthesizes one confidence-weighted trust verdict, explicitly flagging disagreement between sources -- e.g. a very new domain paired with an unusually mature TLS/header setup -- rather than just concatenating four outputs. Supply at least one of domain, url, or email. Costs $0.10 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `domain` (string): Domain to audit. Required if url and email are both omitted.
- `email` (string): Email address to audit. Optional in addition to domain/url.
- `url` (string): URL to audit. Required if domain and email are both omitted.

### `tariffmonkee-gbp-audit` (~107 tokens)

Business -> visibility score, missing fields, review health, AI-readiness flags, fix list. Audits a Google Business Profile via DataForSEO's Business Data API: category, contact info, hours, claimed status, photos, and review rating/distribution. Costs $0.05 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `business` (string, required): Name of the business to audit.
- `location` (string, required): Full location string, format: City,Region,Country.

### `tariffmonkee-serp-check` (~107 tokens)

Keyword + domain -> search position. Checks whether and where a domain ranks in Google organic results for a given keyword, via the same DataForSEO SERP data already powering /search. Costs $0.021 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `domain` (string, required): Domain to check the ranking of.
- `keyword` (string, required): Search keyword to check rankings for.
- `region` (string): Optional. Set to 'tw' for Traditional Chinese / Taiwan-region results.

### `tariffmonkee-ai-visibility` (~122 tokens)

Business/domain + query -> does it appear in AI answers. Sends the real query to a live AI model with web search enabled and checks the actual response for a mention of the business and a citation linking to the domain. Costs $0.031 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `business` (string, required): Business name to check for a mention.
- `domain` (string): Optional. Domain to check for a citation, in addition to a name mention.
- `query` (string, required): The question to ask the AI model. Max 500 characters.

### `tariffmonkee-visibility-report` (~201 tokens)

White-label local visibility report for one business -- combines Google Business Profile completeness, organic search ranking for a target keyword, and AI answer-engine visibility for a buyer-intent query into a single PDF deliverable. White-label by design: no TariffMonkee branding anywhere in the report output, so agencies can present it under their own name to a client or prospect. Costs $0.15 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `business` (string, required): Exact business name to audit.
- `domain` (string, required): The business's own website domain, used for the search-ranking and AI-citation checks.
- `keyword` (string, required): Search keyword to check this business's organic ranking for.
- `location` (string, required): City, region, and country of the business, matching Google Business Profile's own location format.
- `query` (string, required): Buyer-intent question to check whether an AI model mentions this business when answering. Max 500 characters.

### `tariffmonkee-lead-list` (~138 tokens)

Audit-qualified lead list for prospecting. Submit up to 10 candidate local businesses; each is checked against its Google Business Profile (claimed status, photos, hours, website, description, rating, review count) and only businesses with at least one real red flag are returned, as a CSV ready to use as a cold-outreach list. Cheaper per-business than calling /gbp-audit individually if you use the full batch. Costs $0.60 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `businesses` (required): Array of up to 10 objects, each { business, location }, matching Google Business Profile's own name/location format.

### `tariffmonkee-lead-discovery` (~139 tokens)

Discover and qualify local business leads by category and area -- no pre-existing list required. Searches Google Maps for the given category in the given area, then returns only businesses with at least one real red flag (unclaimed listing, missing photos, missing hours, missing website, low rating, or few reviews), as a CSV ready for cold outreach. Up to 10 qualified leads per call. Costs $0.75 per call via x402.

Input parameters:

- `area` (string, required): Area to search in, matching Google's own location format.
- `category` (string, required): Business category to search for, matching a normal Google Maps search term.

### `tariffmonkee-research` (~210 tokens)

query -> up to 10 deduped, rendered sources as one token-budgeted bundle (~8,000 tokens combined). Combines /search (three-provider failover, region=tw Taiwan lane) with /content's rendered-page fetching internally, so you get one call instead of assembling search-then-fetch yourself. Sources are deduped by domain. Requires at least 3 successfully fetched sources to succeed -- returns sources_requested and sources_returned so you can see how many of the candidate set actually came back. Costs $0.031 per call via x402 -- only charged when a real search actually runs. A vague query pauses and asks for clarification at no cost; a search that can't find enough sources also pauses at no cost, suggesting a broadened query you can choose to run (which then does cost $0.031).

Input parameters:

- `query` (string, required): Research query.
- `region` (string): Optional. Set to 'tw' for Traditional Chinese / Taiwan-region sources.
