## 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 2026-09-21.

- **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**: 64/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1112 tokens (~222/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 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**: 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 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 6 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 (5)

### `pricing_info` (~44 tokens)

Pricing — China Macro & Supply Signals

Free — list every paid tool in the 'china-macro' bundle with its price, payTo address and network. Call this first if you don't have a wallet ready yet.

### `china-1688-supplier-monitor` (~291 tokens)

1688 Supplier Price & MOQ Monitor

Compare buyer-owned, merchant-authorized, or licensed 1688 offer exports for price, MOQ, stock, supplier, badge, and promotion changes. Each delivered row adds stable identity, freshness, evidence gaps, review priority, and a human action—with no 1688 login, scraping, API call, or URL fetch. — $0.02/call, x402 (USDC on base).

Input parameters:

- `authorization` (string): Required for offers. This is a buyer attestation, not independent verification by the Actor.
- `maxChanges` (integer): Stop before delivering more changed comparisons after this count. Baseline/no-change rows already delivered still count as paid rows.
- `offers` (array): One to 50 closed previous/current records. Unknown or malformed records are counted invalid. Duplicate offerId values are delivered once.
- `productUrls` (array): Migration-only legacy input. URLs are never fetched and produce one free diagnostic row.
- `proxyConfiguration` (object): Accepted only for backward compatibility and ignored. The current Actor makes zero network requests.
- `schemaVersion` (string): Closed public input contract version.
- `sourceContext` (string): Required buyer-attested origin category for the authorized export.
- `watchName` (string, required): Stable buyer label for this comparison. It is returned in every row and OUTPUT receipt; the Actor does not persist a cross-run source baseline.

### `china-fdi-flow-position-monitor` (~206 tokens)

China FDI Flow & Position Monitor

Monitor official OECD China FDI financial flows and positions by assets and liabilities, with paid-delivery-safe deltas. — $0.02/call, x402 (USDC on base).

Input parameters:

- `cacheMaxAgeMinutes` (integer): Reuse a validated official OECD response for 0-120 minutes. Set 0 to disable cache reads. Cache state never changes the paid-delivery baseline.
- `datasets` (array): Official OECD aggregate financial flows (quarterly), positions (annual), or both. Values use the assets/liabilities accounting principle; they are not inbound/outbound labels.
- `endYear` (integer): Inclusive last year, not later than the current UTC year.
- `startYear` (integer): Inclusive first year. Runtime validation enforces 2005 or later and a maximum 10-year window.
- `watchName` (string): Stable private baseline scope. Reuse it in scheduled runs to compare only against a previously confirmed paid delivery.

### `china-lei-entity-change-monitor` (~245 tokens)

China LEI Entity Change Monitor

Monitor official GLEIF LEI records for entity, registration and parent-relationship changes in mainland China and Hong Kong. — $0.02/call, x402 (USDC on base).

Input parameters:

- `countries` (array, required): Mainland China (CN) is the default. Add Hong Kong (HK) when required.
- `includeRelationships` (boolean): Resolve direct and ultimate accounting parents when GLEIF publishes a relationship.
- `leis` (array): Optional exact 20-character Legal Entity Identifiers.
- `maxConcurrency` (integer): Bounded concurrency for official GLEIF requests.
- `maxResults` (integer): Hard cap across all searches after deterministic LEI de-duplication.
- `nameMatchMode` (string): Fuzzy uses GLEIF full-text matching. Exact additionally requires a normalized legal or alternate-name match.
- `names` (array): Optional bounded entity-name searches. Searches are restricted to the selected countries.
- `replayBaseline` (boolean): Emit a paid replay row for unchanged records. Keep disabled for change-only scheduled monitoring.
- `watchName` (string, required): Stable private baseline scope. Reuse this value on scheduled runs.

### `china-macro-revision-monitor` (~142 tokens)

China Macro Revision Monitor

Monitor bounded China macro observations and historical revisions from the official World Bank WDI source=2 API. — $0.02/call, x402 (USDC on base).

Input parameters:

- `endYear` (integer): Inclusive last year, not later than the current UTC year.
- `indicators` (array): Approved World Development Indicators. Arbitrary codes and other World Bank datasets are rejected.
- `startYear` (integer): Inclusive first year. Runtime validation enforces 1960 or later and a maximum 10-year window.
- `watchName` (string): Stable private baseline scope. Reuse it in scheduled runs to identify new observations and revisions.
