Available components
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
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS check failed: the endpoint is reachable over plaintext HTTP. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability88
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 1591 tokens (~93/item across 17 items; 10 tools + 7 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
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
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 12 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

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 →
check_eol Check end-of-life status ~145
Check whether a specific version of a software product is end-of-life (EOL). Returns lifecycle status, the EOL date, days remaining or days past EOL, the latest release, and eol_date_source (where the date comes from: vendor-override, vendor-fetched, vendor-verified, custom, upstream, or discrepancy) with its source URL. Use this for "is X version Y still supported?" questions.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| product | string | yes | Product slug or name, e.g. "postgresql", "nodejs", "ubuntu". |
| version | string | yes | Version/cycle, e.g. "14", "18", "20.04". |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
check_sbom Check an SBOM ~121
Audit a CycloneDX or SPDX JSON software bill of materials. Components are mapped to tracked products and scored for EOL risk; unmatched components are listed honestly rather than guessed. Pass the SBOM as a JSON string or object. Free tier scores up to 5 matched components per call; Pro up to 50.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| max_items | integer | – | Maximum matched components to score (default 50). |
| sbom | – | yes | The SBOM document (JSON string or object). CycloneDX (bomFormat/components) or SPDX (spdxVersion/packages). |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
get_edge_device_status EOS Edge Device status ~197
Query the EOS Edge Device Intelligence feed — firewalls, VPN gateways and appliances, ADCs, router and switch operating systems — with end-of-support status in the vocabulary of CISA BOD 26-02 (eos, within-12-months, scheduled, no-date-announced). Filter by platform or vendor name, by status, or by model/line. Each platform carries its KEV summary, vendor-stated successor and provenance. Use for "which of our edge devices are past support or expire within 12 months?".
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| model | string | – | Optional substring matched against the line / model name, e.g. "ISA6000", "7.2", "SMA 100". |
| platform | string | – | Optional substring matched against platform slug, name, vendor or category, e.g. "fortinet", "ivanti", "vpn". |
| status | string | – | Optional status filter. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
get_kev_exposure CISA KEV exposure ~159
The exploited-vulnerability record for a product: every CVE CISA lists against it in the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, with the date added, the federal due date and CISA's required-action text verbatim (the "discontinue use" entries are the ones that matter for end-of-life versions), plus any entries from endoflife.ai's Exploited & Unpatchable feed (exploited CVEs whose affected versions will never receive a fix). Pass an optional version to include its support status alongside.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| product | string | yes | Product slug or name, e.g. "ivanti-connect-secure", "fortios". |
| version | string | – | Optional version/cycle to check support status for. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
get_product_lifecycle Full lifecycle table ~73
Get the full version history for one product: every tracked version/cycle with its release date, EOL date, support status, and EOL Risk Score. Use for "give me the whole EOL schedule for X".
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| product | string | yes | Product slug or name, e.g. "postgresql". |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
get_risk_score EOL Risk Score ~125
Get the proprietary EOL Risk Score (0-100) for a product version, with the four-factor breakdown (EOL recency, attack surface, CISA KEV exposure, extended support). Omit "version" to score the product's highest-risk (most recently end-of-lifed) release. Use this to quantify how dangerous it is to keep running something.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| product | string | yes | Product slug or name, e.g. "openssl", "python". |
| version | string | – | Optional version/cycle. Omit for the highest-risk release. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
get_upcoming_eol Upcoming end-of-life calendar ~157
What reaches end-of-life soon. Returns every tracked version whose EOL date falls within the next N days (default 90), optionally limited to a list of products, sorted by date. Also lists versions that went EOL within the last "recent_past_days" days when set. Use for "what in our stack expires this quarter?".
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| days | integer | – | Look-ahead window in days (default 90, max 730). |
| products | array | – | Optional product slugs or names to restrict to (max 50). Omit for the whole catalog. |
| recent_past_days | integer | – | Also include versions that went EOL within this many days in the past (default 0). |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
get_upgrade_path Upgrade path ~91
Where to move a product version: the current version's support status and score, the supported releases with the longest remaining support, endoflife.ai's recommended target, and the vendor's stated successor where one is published (edge appliances). Use after check_eol says a version is EOL.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| product | string | yes | Product slug or name. |
| version | string | – | Optional current version/cycle. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
list_products Find a product slug ~73
List or search the products endoflife.ai tracks (500+). Pass an optional "query" substring to find the canonical slug for a product before calling the other tools (e.g. "postgres" → "postgresql"). Returns matching product slugs.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | – | Optional case-insensitive substring filter. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
scan_stack Scan a stack ~104
Audit a whole stack at once. Provide a list of products (optionally with versions) — e.g. parsed from a package.json or Dockerfile — and get an EOL Risk Score for each, so you can see what is unsupported and dangerous in one call. For CycloneDX or SPDX documents use check_sbom instead. Free tier: up to 5 items; Pro: up to 50.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| items | array | yes | List of stack components to score. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
