## 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 2026-08-03.

- **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 connect, but we couldn't read the tool list to see what that exposes.
  - 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**: 0/100
  - Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but the endpoint redirected instead of responding directly.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 0/100
  - Schema not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's schema.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 0/100
  - Tool coverage not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools.
- **Capabilities**: 0/100
  - Capabilities not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's capabilities.

**Unverified: 4 categories.** Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

## MCP tools (5)

### `read_page` (~181 tokens)

Load a web page in a real browser and return its main content as clean
        markdown, with the title, canonical url and basic metadata. Handles
        javascript-rendered pages. Respects robots.txt and refuses sites that block
        automation rather than trying to defeat them. Pass api_key if you already have
        a pagewatch key, otherwise a free trial key is created for you on the first
        call and returned in the response.

        url: the page to read (http or https).
        api_key: an existing pagewatch bearer token, optional.
        wait_for_selector: css selector to wait for before reading, optional.
        scroll: scroll the page to trigger lazy-loaded content, optional.

Input parameters:

- `api_key`
- `scroll` (boolean)
- `url` (string, required)
- `wait_for_selector`

### `screenshot` (~209 tokens)

Take a screenshot of a web page rendered in a real browser and return it as
        base64 image data (png by default, jpeg optional), with the final url and
        pixel size. Consent overlays are hidden so the shot shows the page. Respects
        robots.txt. Pass api_key if you have a pagewatch key, otherwise a free trial
        key is created for you and returned.

        url: the page to capture.
        api_key: an existing pagewatch bearer token, optional.
        full_page: capture the entire scrollable page, not just the viewport.
        width, height: viewport size in pixels.
        format: png or jpeg.
        wait_for_selector: css selector to wait for before capturing, optional.

Input parameters:

- `api_key`
- `format` (string)
- `full_page` (boolean)
- `height` (integer)
- `url` (string, required)
- `wait_for_selector`
- `width` (integer)

### `pdf` (~166 tokens)

Render a web page (by url) or raw html into a pdf and return it as base64
        pdf data. Provide exactly one of url or html. Respects robots.txt for url
        input. Pass api_key if you have a pagewatch key, otherwise a free trial key is
        created for you and returned.

        url: the page to convert, optional.
        html: raw html to convert, optional (provide url or html, not both).
        api_key: an existing pagewatch bearer token, optional.
        paper: A4, Letter, Legal or A3.
        landscape: landscape orientation.

Input parameters:

- `api_key`
- `html`
- `landscape` (boolean)
- `paper` (string)
- `url`

### `register` (~175 tokens)

Create a pagewatch api key for yourself. Free, no signup and no human form.
        Returns a bearer token that starts with a small free trial so your first
        read_page, screenshot or pdf works right away. When the trial runs out, hand
        the returned verification_uri_complete to your human, who confirms one email
        to unlock 200 more free credits (still free, nothing to pay). Reuse the token
        by passing it as api_key, or set it as Authorization: Bearer <token> on this
        server. Nothing is ever charged: pagewatch has no payment processor connected.

        label: a short name for this key, optional.
        purpose: why you want web access, shown to your human on the activation page.

Input parameters:

- `label`
- `purpose`

### `balance` (~79 tokens)

Check the remaining free credits on your pagewatch key, plus the per-call
        prices and, if the key is not switched on yet, the free activation link to
        give your human. Pass api_key if you did not configure an Authorization header.

        api_key: an existing pagewatch bearer token, optional.

Input parameters:

- `api_key`
