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 → Why this is hard to score →

Endpoint Security63
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability70
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 1011 tokens (~101/item across 10 items; 10 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management73
  • Stability observed for 22 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage79
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 28% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 10 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 11 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass
Install

How do I install the Plainport MCP server?

Plainport is a hosted endpoint at https://plainport.exportitnow.workers.dev/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 10 exposed · ~981 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
diff_text ~100

Computes a deterministic line- or word-level diff and returns typed add/remove/equal parts. Use this when an agent needs structured change data. Split highly divergent large documents if the computation limit is reached. Limit: 200k combined characters, 2,000 result parts, 8 ms diff budget.

extract_metadata ~95

Fetches one public HTML page and extracts title, description, canonical URL, robots directives, Open Graph, Twitter Card, advertised feeds, and parsed JSON-LD. Use this when an agent needs page identity or structured data rather than body text. Limit: 8 s, 5 redirects, 768 KiB, 50 JSON-LD blocks.

fetch_markdown ~110

Fetches one public HTTP/HTTPS page and returns its primary readable content as Markdown. Use this for article or documentation body text without page chrome. It does not run JavaScript; use a browser tool for client-rendered pages. Native text/markdown responses are preserved. Limit: 8 s, 5 redirects, 768 KiB remote body, 150k output characters.

html_to_markdown ~88

Converts supplied HTML into readable Markdown without fetching a URL. Use this when the agent already has HTML. Provide base_url only to resolve relative links; use fetch_markdown when Plainport should retrieve the page. Limit: 200k input characters, 150k output characters.

inspect_robots ~109

Fetches an origin's robots.txt and evaluates one path for a named user agent using longest-match allow/disallow precedence. Also returns crawl delay and declared sitemaps. Use this before automated retrieval; the result is policy guidance, not authorization. Limit: 8 s, 5 redirects, 768 KiB, 50 sitemap declarations.

Resolves a public URL through bounded redirects and returns status plus a safe allowlist of HTTP headers. Use HEAD for cheap reachability/type checks and GET when a server mishandles HEAD. Use extract_metadata for HTML semantic metadata. Limit: 8 s, 5 redirects, 768 KiB only for GET.

Common questions

What is the Plainport MCP server?

Plainport is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as dev.workers.exportitnow.plainport/plainport. Deterministic web intake and data utilities for autonomous agents. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://plainport.exportitnow.workers.dev/mcp).

Is the Plainport MCP server safe to use?

Plainport scores 74 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Plainport MCP server expose?

Plainport exposes 10 tools: fetch_markdown, inspect_url, extract_metadata, extract_links, parse_feed, and 5 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 981 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Plainport MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Plainport without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the Plainport MCP server still maintained?

Plainport is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 26 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
