Trust breakdown (6 categories)

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 →

Endpoint Security66
  • The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 4 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
  • 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
Schema Quality & AI Usability62
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1453 tokens (~363/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 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 Management30
  • Stability observed for 9 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
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
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

Tool Tokens
openchargemap_find_stations ~820

Find EV charging stations from the global Open Charge Map registry near a point or within a bounding box. Provide either a center (latitude + longitude + distance) or a boundingbox; optionally scope to a country with countrycode. This tool is coordinate-native and does not geocode place names — resolve a place like "Ballard, Seattle" to coordinates with openstreetmap_geocode first, then pass them here. Filter by connector type, minimum power (kW), operator/network, usage type (public/free/membership), charge level, operational status, and minimum charge points. Filter IDs are integers — resolve a connector or network name to its ID with openchargemap_lookup_reference (e.g. "CCS" -> 33). Each result includes title, address, distance from the search point, connections (type, power, count), operator, access rules, registry operational status, and the last-verified date.

NameTypeReqDescription
boundingboxobjectBounding-box search as an alternative to a center+radius. Mutually exclusive with latitude/longitude/distance.
connectiontypeidConnector type ID, or an array of IDs (OR-matched). Resolve names with openchargemap_lookup_reference — e.g. CCS (Type 2)=33, CHAdeMO=2, NACS/Tesla Supercharger=27, Type 2 socket=25, Type 1/J1772=1.
countrycodestringRestrict to one country by ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code (e.g. "US", "FR", "GB"). Omit for a global search. The server is global by default — there is no implicit country.
distancenumberSearch radius from the center point, in the unit given by distanceUnit (default km). Max 500. Keep small (5-25) for dense urban areas; widen for rural coverage.
distanceUnitstringUnit for the distance parameter and the returned distance values.
latitudenumberCenter latitude (WGS84 decimal degrees). Use with longitude + distance for a radius search. Resolve place names via openstreetmap_geocode first.
levelidCharge level ID (1=Low <2kW, 2=Medium >2kW, 3=High >40kW/fast). Array OR-matched. Use 3 as a coarse "fast charging only" filter when a specific connector is not required.
longitudenumberCenter longitude (WGS84 decimal degrees). Use with latitude + distance for a radius search.
maxresultsintegerMaximum stations to return, ordered by distance from the search point. Max 200.
minchargepointsintegerMinimum number of charge points (stalls) at the station. Filters out single-point locations when you need a station likely to have an open stall.
minpowerkwnumberMinimum charging power in kW across any connection at the station. Use ~50 for DC fast charging, ~150 for high-power DC. Stations whose fastest connection is below this are excluded.
operatoridOperator/network ID, or array of IDs (OR-matched). Resolve a network name with openchargemap_lookup_reference (category "operators") — e.g. "Tesla", "ChargePoint".
statustypeidRegistry operational-status ID, or array (OR-matched). Resolve via openchargemap_lookup_reference (category "statustypes"). NOTE: registry status is operator-reported and can be stale — combine with…
usagetypeidUsage/access type ID, or array (OR-matched). Resolve via openchargemap_lookup_reference (category "usagetypes") — e.g. Public=1, Public-Pay At Location=5, Public-Membership Required=4.

openchargemap_get_station ~163

Get the full record for one Open Charge Map station by its numeric OCM ID. Returns every connection (type, level, power, current, quantity, per-connection status), the operator and network, usage and access restrictions (pay-at-location, membership, access key), the number of charge points, general comments, usage cost, the data provider, media, and verification recency. Set includeComments to also return community check-ins inline.

NameTypeReqDescription
idintegeryesNumeric OCM station ID (e.g. 145452).
includeCommentsbooleanInclude community check-ins and comments inline in the response. Adds payload but gives the real-world reliability signal alongside the registry status. For comments alone, use openchargemap_get_stat…

attributionstringyesRequired CC BY 4.0 attribution to Open Charge Map contributors.
reliabilityNotestringA caveat when the registry status, verification age, coordinates, or comments suggest the listing may not reflect reality. Omitted when there is nothing to flag.
stationobjectyesThe full station record.

No examples provided.

openchargemap_get_station_comments ~112

Read community check-ins and comments for one Open Charge Map station — the real-world reliability signal beyond the operator-reported registry status. Returns user comments and fault reports with ratings and dates, alongside the station's current registry status and last-verified date, surfacing mismatches like "listed operational, but the last few check-ins report a fault."

NameTypeReqDescription
idintegeryesNumeric OCM station ID.
maxresultsintegerMaximum comments to return, newest first. Max 100.
NameTypeReqDescription
attributionstringyesRequired CC BY 4.0 attribution to Open Charge Map contributors.
capnumberThe maxresults cap that was applied.
commentsarrayyesCommunity comments, newest first. Empty array means OCM has no check-ins for this station — absence of reports is not evidence the charger works.
dateLastVerifiedISO 8601 date the listing was last verified. null when never verified.
isOperationalbooleanWhether the registry marks the station operational. Absent when the operational state is unknown. Compare against the comments below — they are the real-world check.
noticestringGuidance when the station has no check-ins on record.
registryStatusstringCurrent registry operational status (operator-reported).
reliabilityNotestringA caveat when the registry status, verification age, coordinates, or comments suggest the listing may not reflect reality. Omitted when there is nothing to flag.
shownnumberNumber of comments returned when the cap was hit.
stationIdnumberyesOCM station ID the comments belong to.
stationTitlestringyesStation name, for context.
totalCountnumberyesNumber of comments returned.
truncatedbooleanTrue when comments were capped at maxresults.

No examples provided.

openchargemap_lookup_reference ~254

Resolve Open Charge Map reference data to the integer IDs that openchargemap_find_stations filters require. Pick a category and pass a name or code to resolve — "CCS" or "Tesla Supercharger" -> a connectiontypeid, "ChargePoint" -> an operatorid, "Public - Pay At Location" -> a usagetypeid, "France" or "FR" -> a country. Omit the query to browse the whole category.
