## 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**: 63/100
  - 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 enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - 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**: 76/100
  - 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 374 tokens (~187/item across 2 items; 1 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 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 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 3 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.

Ask WebKnox

Shows the user an interactive WebKnox answer card, with its sources, for questions that have one: comparisons of two to four things with photos ("ravens vs crows"), weather forecasts for a named place, sunrise, sunset and moon phases, nutrition facts of a food, recipes, translations and word definitions, unit conversions and calculations, the time in a city and countdowns, pictures of a subject, videos, music, radio stations, podcasts and sounds, jokes, quotes, fun facts and what happened on this day. It has no cards for general knowledge, advice, opinions, coding or writing. For a question without a card, the result says so and shows nothing.

Input parameters:

- `locale` (string): The user's language, for the card's labels: en, de, fr, es, pt or it.
- `question` (string, required): The question as one self-contained sentence in the user's language that names the place, food or things it is about; a follow-up such as "and tomorrow?" written out as a full question.
- `timezone` (string): The user's IANA time zone, such as Europe/Berlin, when known.
- `units` (string): Units for weather and conversions, when the user prefers one system.
