## 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**: 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**: 68/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1224 tokens (~136/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 17/100
  - Stability observed for 5 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 98/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 93% 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 9 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 10 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 (9)

### `braille_convert` (~162 tokens)

Text to WIA Braille (pronunciation-based)

Converts text to WIA Braille, a pronunciation-based common braille (NOT an official national braille code). Returns IPA and braille cells (6-dot paper form or 8-dot canonical form), plus quality/confidence. Low-quality results are flagged, not hidden.
한국어: 텍스트를 발음 기반 WIA 점자로 변환합니다(국가 공식 점자 아님).

Input parameters:

- `dots`: 6-dot paper form (default) or 8-dot canonical form
- `lang` (string): ISO language code, e.g. ko, en, ja. If omitted the API auto-detects; call braille_languages for supported codes
- `text` (string, required): Text to convert (max 5,000 chars)

### `braille_languages` (~94 tokens)

List / search supported languages

Lists or searches the languages the WIA Braille engine can convert (pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code.). Shows the conversion sources per language (rules, dictionary, espeak).
한국어: 지원 언어를 목록·검색합니다.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Max entries returned (default 50)
- `query` (string): Language code or name fragment, e.g. korean, ko

### `braille_to_brf` (~144 tokens)

Braille cells to BRF (embosser file text)

Converts Unicode braille cells to BRF (NABCC 6-dot ASCII braille, the text format embossers read), with line/page wrapping (pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code.). 8-dot cells are converted to 6-dot by the engine and reported.
한국어: 유니코드 점자를 엠보서용 BRF 텍스트로 변환합니다.

Input parameters:

- `braille` (string, required): Unicode braille cells (U+2800..)
- `cellsPerLine` (integer): Cells per line (default 40)
- `linesPerPage` (integer): Lines per page (default 25)

### `braille_verify_brf` (~96 tokens)

Verify BRF text (9 checks)

Runs 9 automatic checks on BRF text (mapping, line length, page length, CRLF, form feed, round trip, ...). Does not check paper quality or dot depth (pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code.).
한국어: BRF 텍스트를 9개 항목으로 자동 검증합니다.

Input parameters:

- `brf` (string, required): BRF text (ASCII braille)

### `braille_math_nemeth` (~104 tokens)

Math text to Nemeth braille (linear expressions)

Converts a linear math expression (e.g. x^2+1=5) to Nemeth-code braille cells. Note the surrounding engine is pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code. Best for linear expressions; complex 2D layouts need reviewer post-processing.
한국어: 한 줄 수식을 네메스 점자로 변환합니다.

Input parameters:

- `text` (string, required): Math expression, e.g. x^2+1=5

### `braille_engine_info` (~53 tokens)

### `talk_text_to_gesture_codes` (~148 tokens)

Text to ISP gesture codes (sound-unit codes, not sign language)

Returns WIA Talk ISP codes for the SOUNDS of a text (handshape-location-movement-orientation codes). These are sound-unit codes, NOT a translation into any real sign language such as KSL or ASL. Underlying text-to-IPA is pronunciation-based WIA Braille (pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code.)
한국어: 소리 단위 제스처 코드이며 실제 수어 번역이 아닙니다.

Input parameters:

- `lang` (string): ISO language code, e.g. ko, en, ja. If omitted the API auto-detects; call braille_languages for supported codes
- `text` (string, required)

### `talk_codes_to_text` (~155 tokens)

ISP gesture codes back to IPA / braille

Converts WIA Talk ISP codes (e.g. HS02-LC07-MV01-OR03-MM07) back to IPA and WIA Braille. Unknown codes are listed as missing, never invented. Sound-unit codes, not sign language. (pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code.)
한국어: ISP 코드를 IPA·점자로 되돌립니다.

Input parameters:

- `codes` (array, required): ISP codes such as HS02-LC07-MV01-OR03-MM07; " " marks a word boundary
- `lang` (string): ISO language code, e.g. ko, en, ja. If omitted the API auto-detects; call braille_languages for supported codes

### `talk_coverage` (~62 tokens)

ISP code coverage list

Lists which braille/IPA segments currently have a WIA Talk ISP code. Sound-unit codes, not sign language. (pronunciation-based, NOT an official national braille code.)
