## 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**: 57/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 7 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - 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**: 71/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1608 tokens (~134/item across 12 items; 12 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 60/100
  - Stability observed for 18 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 95/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 86% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "doorman_send_test_delivery" implies "send" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default.
  - An AI judge read all 13 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## Install

### How do I install the Doorman MCP server?

## MCP tools (12)

### `doorman_docs` (~40 tokens)

Read how Doorman works and how to integrate it (the same text as /llms.txt). Call this first if you haven't used Doorman before.

### `doorman_signup` (~271 tokens)

Create a Doorman account for the user with a first form and an API key. Ask the user for their email first. They'll get an email to set a dashboard password. Creates the account's first form too and returns its id and action URL, plus the api_key (store it as DOORMAN_KEY in the project's local secrets file, never commit it). Only for new users: if they already have an account, ask for a key instead. Until the user clicks the confirmation link in that email, nothing is emailed to them (100 checks; Slack and webhooks work).

Input parameters:

- `email` (string, required): The user's email. Real submissions are forwarded here by default.
- `form_name` (string): Optional name, e.g. 'Contact form' or 'Demo request'
- `mode` (string): watch delivers would-be drops, tagged; holds still follow forward_holds. Recommended for a new lead form: switch to enforce after a week or two of verdicts look right. Default enforce.
- `site_context` (string, required): One or two sentences: what the business sells and to whom. Doorman compares every submission against this. Read the project's README/landing copy to write it.
- `site_url` (string, required): The website the form is on, e.g. acme.com

### `doorman_whoami` (~46 tokens)

Account, plan and this month's usage.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.

### `doorman_list_forms` (~49 tokens)

List the account's forms with their action URLs and settings.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.

### `doorman_create_form` (~173 tokens)

Create another form endpoint (one per distinct form on the site: contact, demo request, checkout, comments).

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.
- `email_to` (string): Comma-separated emails to forward real submissions to

- `name` (string, required): Form name
- `redirect_url` (string): Where to send the visitor after submitting (default: a Doorman thank-you page)
- `site_context` (string): What the business sells and to whom
- `slack_url` (string): Slack incoming webhook URL
- `webhook_url` (string): HTTPS URL that receives a signed JSON POST per real submission

### `doorman_update_form` (~252 tokens)

Change a form's settings: context, destinations, thresholds, watch mode, allow/block lists.

Input parameters:

- `allow_list` (array): Emails or domains always delivered without judging
- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.
- `block_list` (array): Emails or domains always dropped
- `deliver_at` (number): Deliver when P(real) >= this (default 0.8)
- `drop_below` (number): Drop when P(real) < this (default 0.2)
- `email_to` (string): Comma-separated emails
- `form_id` (string, required): f_...
- `forward_holds` (boolean): Forward held submissions, flagged (default true)
- `kind` (string)

- `name` (string): Form name
- `redirect_url` (string): Redirect after submit
- `site_context` (string): What the business sells and to whom
- `slack_url` (string): Slack incoming webhook URL
- `webhook_url` (string): HTTPS webhook URL

### `doorman_get_install_snippet` (~137 tokens)

Get ready-to-paste integration code for a form on a given platform. Use 'html' for static sites, 'react' for SPA client components, and 'fetch' (plain fetch with timeout and fallback: Workers, Node, Next, Deno), 'nextjs', 'express', 'python', 'ruby' or 'elixir' when the form already posts to the project's own backend.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.
- `form_id` (string, required): f_...
- `platform` (string, required)

### `doorman_test_submission` (~106 tokens)

Judge a sample message against a form's settings. Free, not forwarded, not counted. Use it to show the user Doorman working after setup (try one genuine enquiry and one sales pitch).

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.
- `email` (string): Optional sender email
- `form_id` (string, required): f_...

- `form_id` (string): Optional f_...
- `limit` (number)
- `review` (boolean)
- `route` (string)

### `doorman_label_submission` (~72 tokens)

Mark a submission real (delivers it if it was held or dropped) or spam.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.
- `label` (string, required)
- `submission_id` (string, required): sub_...

### `doorman_contact_support` (~133 tokens)

Stuck, or something isn't working? Send the problem straight to Doorman's founder, with the error you hit. Your account context (plan, forms, recent errors, never keys) is attached, and the reply goes to the account email. Use it instead of guessing at a fix.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Doorman API key (dm_live_...). Only needed if the MCP connection has no Authorization header.
- `category` (string)
- `error` (string): The exact error text, if any
