## 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**: 83/100
  - 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.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 73/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 2813 tokens (~401/item across 7 items; 6 tools + 1 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.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 8 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).

### `artic_search_artworks` (~881 tokens)

Search artworks

Search the Art Institute of Chicago collection by text and structured filters, ranked by relevance or sorted by date or acquisition year. Text matches all words across titles, artists, descriptions, provenance, and other catalog fields; common English words such as the and of are ignored. Filters combine with AND.

### `artic_get_artworks` (~268 tokens)

Get artworks

Fetch full Art Institute of Chicago records for up to 100 artworks by id in one call, returning deferred_ids for the rest: description, provenance, exhibition and publication history, dimensions, inscriptions, credit line, categorization, gallery, image URLs with rights status, and related multimedia. The long text sections are opt-in through sections; request the sections and ids your client can take, since every section on 100 well-documented works comes to about 1.4 MB. Ids come from artic_search_artworks, artic_search_exhibitions, or artic_search_artists.

Input parameters:

- `ids` (array, required): Artwork ids as an array or comma-separated string, up to 1,000 supplied entries including blanks and duplicates. Comma strings also have a 100,000-character ceiling. Artwork page URLs are read as the…

### `artic_search_exhibitions` (~458 tokens)

Search exhibitions

Search Art Institute of Chicago exhibitions by text, date, artwork_id, or artist_id. Relationship filters cover recorded museum links; an absent link does not prove an artwork or artist never appeared in a show. For the full exhibition record of one artwork, read the exhibition_history section of artic_get_artworks. Results carry dates, gallery, summary, web page, and listed artworks. Pass artwork ids to artic_get_artworks for full records.

Input parameters:

### `artic_search_audio_guide` (~219 tokens)

Search audio guide

Search the Art Institute of Chicago's mobile audio-guide stops by text, matching stop titles and transcripts. Returns each stop's title, MP3 URL, and transcript text. Stops carry no artwork id, so match a stop to a work by its title; for a known artwork, artic_get_artworks related_media lists the recordings linked to it. Some stops are in Spanish, and titles are sometimes internal file names. This content is for noncommercial educational and personal use only: keep the copyright notice and cite the Art Institute of Chicago.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Requested stops per page (1-1,000); at most 100 are returned, each with its whole transcript.
- `page` (integer): Page to return (1-based); page times the applied limit may not exceed 1,000.
- `query` (string, required): Text matched against stop titles and transcripts; every word must match, except common English words such as the and of, which are ignored. An artwork's title or the artist's surname works well.

Output parameters:

- `error` (object): Present when the call failed. Absent on success.
- `has_more` (boolean): True when more matches exist beyond this page.
- `license_text` (string): License statement from the API, verbatim: noncommercial educational and personal use, with notices retained and the source cited.

- `page` (number): Page returned (1-based).
- `shown` (number): Stops returned on this page.
- `source_citation` (string): Citation to keep with any use of this content.
- `stops` (array): Matching stops on this page, in relevance order.
- `totalCount` (number): Matches for the query, before paging.
- `truncated` (boolean): True when more matches exist beyond this page.

### `artic_lookup_vocabulary` (~204 tokens)

Look up collection vocabulary

List the values of an Art Institute of Chicago collection vocabulary with how many artworks carry each, most common first, optionally narrowed by a substring. Each value passes to the artic_search_artworks filter of the same name exactly as listed (case is ignored). Counts here span the whole collection; for counts within a filtered set of artworks, request facets from artic_search_artworks.

Input parameters:

- `contains` (string): Case- and accent-insensitive substring the values must contain, such as "impress" for Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, or "applique" for appliqué (technique). Omit to list the most common values.
- `limit` (integer): Values to return, most common first (1-1,000). Narrow with contains for more specific values.
- `public_domain_only` (boolean): Count only public-domain artworks.
- `vocabulary` (string, required): Vocabulary to list; its values feed the artic_search_artworks filter of the same name.

Output parameters:

- `cap` (number): The limit applied.
- `error` (object): Present when the call failed. Absent on success.
- `filter_param` (string): The artic_search_artworks parameter that accepts these values as listed.
- `notice` (string): Guidance when no value matched or the list was capped.
- `shown` (number): Values returned.
- `truncated` (boolean): True when more values exist beyond the limit.
- `values` (array): Values, most common first.
