## 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**: 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**: 80/100
  - 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 1006 tokens (~167/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 86/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 52% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% 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 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 7 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).

## MCP tools (6)

### `search_catalog` (~272 tokens)

Search artists, teams, venues and events

Use this when the user names an artist, team, venue or event and you need the matching TicketSea records. Ranked search with prefixes, aliases and labeled one-edit corrections. Artist and venue matches are worldwide; an event radius needs a city ID or a full City, Region, Country label. Results are cached listings, not live inventory, and this is a search by name, not a dated list of events.

Input parameters:

- `city` (string): City the user asked about: a TicketSea city ID or an exact City, Region, Country label. Required for a distance radius.
- `from` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `mode` (string): suggest is a bounded autocomplete preview without pagination; short prefixes match names and aliases. Use results for full context matching and pagination.
- `offset` (integer)
- `query` (string): Artist, team, venue or event name, or the start of one.
- `radius` (string): Miles around city for event results.
- `sale` (string): soon selects events whose public on-sale has not started yet. Give a specific query (an artist or a city name) with it; use radius 200 for local on-sales.
- `to` (string)
- `type` (string): Limit results to one record type.

Output parameters:

- `correctedQuery` (string|null)
- `groups` (array)
- `indexStale` (boolean)
- `indexUpdatedAt` (string)
- `location` (string|null)
- `notice` (string)
- `query` (string)
- `radius` (number|null)

### `search_events` (~189 tokens)

Find upcoming events

Use this when the user wants upcoming concerts, sports, theatre or other live events by performer or event name, city, country, category or dates. Returns cached provider listings in date order. Each event has its TicketSea page (url) and, when a fresh exact-event seller link exists, a tickets link to that seller's page. Not live inventory, and nothing is purchased. Use nextOffset to page, and narrow the filters when scanLimited is true.

Input parameters:

- `city` (string): City the user asked about, as an exact city name (case-insensitive), such as Seattle. Location is never inferred.
- `country` (string)
- `from` (string)
- `kind` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `offset` (integer)
- `query` (string): Artist, team, event or venue text.
- `to` (string)

Output parameters:

- `coverage` (string)
- `events` (array)
- `hasMore` (boolean)
- `nextOffset` (integer|null)
- `notice` (string)
- `scanLimited` (boolean)
- `sources` (array)

- `publicSaleState` (string): Schedule state, not inventory. registration means restricted registration access, not an open general sale.
- `region` (string)
- `slug` (string)
- `stale` (boolean)
- `status` (string)

- `url` (string)
- `venue` (string)

### `get_ticket_links` (~134 tokens)

Get ticket links for an event

Use this when the user wants to buy or compare tickets for one specific event. Returns the exact-event seller links from a fresh, upcoming snapshot (links), each labeled primary or resale, official and affiliate, and the other sellers the event's TicketSea page offers (otherSellers), such as resale marketplaces, each with a description of what the link is; some are a search for the event rather than its own page. Does not check stock or reserve tickets. Canceled, past and stale events return no links.

### `prepare_event_visit` (~112 tokens)

One call returns the latest event details, every seller link for the event, the venue address, suggested stay dates and search links for hotels, parking, directions and things to do. Planning only; nothing is booked or saved. Stale or inactive events have no planning links.

Input parameters:

TicketSea is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.ticketsea/ticketsea. Find live events worldwide and link each seller's tickets. Some ticket links are affiliate links. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://ticketsea.com/mcp).

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

TicketSea scores 75 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 TicketSea MCP server expose?

TicketSea exposes 6 tools: search_catalog, search_events, get_event, get_ticket_links, prepare_event_visit, get_service_status. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 840 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
