Available components
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. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security83
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability69
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1308 tokens (~436/item across 3 items; 2 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the com.valksor/scythian MCP server?
com.valksor/scythian is a hosted endpoint at https://scythian.valksor.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 93 to 97. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 28 days of observed history at the previous scan, 29 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
scythian_get_descendants Get a Proto-Scythian entry's descendants ~239
Fetch the full descendants payload — etymology, glosses and the reflex tree (Sarmatian→Alanic→Ossetian, Saka→Khotanese) — for a lemma identified by a search result's descendant handle (entry_id + word_class). Use this only when a search ran without inline payloads or left a match un-expanded — a default search already returns each match's payload inline. Returns Markdown plus the payload as structuredContent with the shape {"result": <payload>} per the declared outputSchema — switch on result.category ('descendants' | 'not_found') before reading the body. Content from en.wiktionary.org (CC BY-SA 4.0).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| entry_id | string | yes | The bare lemma (no asterisk) from a search result's descendant handle, e.g. 'tiɣri', 'baga' — a typed leading asterisk is tolerated. |
| word_class | string | yes | The part-of-speech section from a search result's descendant handle, e.g. 'noun', 'adjective', 'proper noun'. |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| result | – | yes | – |

scythian_search Look a Proto-Scythian word up ~539
Look a Proto-Scythian lemma up on Wiktionary and return its senses plus its full descendants payload — the reconstructed etymology and the reflex tree down to Ossetian and Khotanese, attested scholarship, not invention. Plain ASCII spellings are folded to the reconstruction's diacritics and the result notes the resolution. With search_language='eng' the query is an English word instead: the result lists the lemmas whose glosses match it (the translations block) plus their expanded entries. Returns Markdown plus the same result as structuredContent matching the declared outputSchema. Results are cached server-side; first-time queries reach the live upstream politely and calls are rate limited — on a rate-limit error, wait a few seconds and retry. Content is from en.wiktionary.org (CC BY-SA 4.0 — attribute and share alike if republished).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|

| max_forms | – | – | Optional override for how many descendants payloads to expand this call (0–12). On an uncached query each payload is one politely paced upstream fetch, so high values on cold queries are slow. Omit f… |
| query | string | yes | The word to look up, in the language search_language names. Scythian (default): a SINGLE Proto-Scythian lemma — plain ASCII works ('tigri' finds *tiɣri: macrons and carons are folded, and ɣ→g, δ→d, β… |
| search_language | – | – | Language the query word is in: 'xsc' (default) looks the Proto-Scythian lemma up directly; 'eng' finds the lemmas whose English glosses match the query (the local gloss index — reconstructed language… |

|---|---|---|---|
| entries | array | – | – |
| forms_truncated | integer | – | How many handles did NOT get an inline descendants payload because the per-search cap was reached. |
| found | boolean | yes | False when nothing matched. For an eng query, True means the gloss index named Proto-Scythian lemmas — entries may still be empty when none of them could be expanded (see translations). |

| language | – | yes | – |
| query | string | yes | – |
| resolved_from | string | – | The original query when resolved via the index; else empty. xsc queries only — always empty for eng results. |
| resolved_lemma | string | – | The lemma actually searched when resolved; else empty. xsc queries only — always empty for eng results. |
| search_method | string | – | How the match was found: 'direct' = the query itself matched; 'lemma_index' = an ASCII/diacritic-folded spelling resolved via the reverse index; 'translations' = an English query resolved via the loc… |
| source | string | – | – |
| translations | array | – | Populated only for eng queries (always [] for xsc): the Proto-Scythian lemmas whose glosses match the query. Entries/handles below are the expanded dictionary entries of those lemmas. |
| translations_truncated | integer | – | How many distinct matched lemmas were NOT expanded into entries because the per-search expansion cap was reached (they still appear under translations). |
