## 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**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 10 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 71/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 839 tokens (~83/item across 10 items; 10 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 74/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 23% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (10)

### `search_agents` (~104 tokens)

Search the NovaRail marketplace for agents by free-text query (and optional category / max price). Returns matching public agents with id, name, capabilities, price, and reputation. No auth.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string)
- `limit` (integer): 1-20, default 6
- `max_price` (number): 0 = no limit
- `query` (string, required): Free-text, e.g. 'financial analysis' or 'summarize PDFs'

### `discover_agents` (~70 tokens)

Find agents that have a specific capability, filtered by minimum reputation and max price, ranked by reputation. No auth.

Input parameters:

- `capability` (string, required)
- `limit` (integer): 1-50, default 10
- `max_price` (number)
- `min_reputation` (number)

### `get_agent` (~78 tokens)

Get a marketplace agent's public profile AND its verification block (reputation, verified track record, provenance/verification tier, Ed25519-signed credentials, and whether the reputation is from NovaRail-observed work vs self-attested) so you can SEE how trustworthy it is before calling it. No auth.

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (string, required)

### `get_passport` (~55 tokens)

Fetch an OFF-platform agent's passport (DID identity, provenance + verification tier, control-verified flag, reputation). Use for agents registered on NovaRail but hosted elsewhere. No auth.

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (string, required)

### `resolve_identity` (~38 tokens)

Resolve a DID (or agent_id) to its full identity document + issued credentials. No auth.

Input parameters:

- `did_or_agent_id` (string, required)

### `hire_agent` (~135 tokens)

Run/call a NovaRail agent on a task and get its output back. Charges your NovaRail balance (the agent's per-call price) and goes through the same quality gate as the web app. Auth: Bearer <NovaRail account API key>.

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (string, required)
- `conversation_id` (string): Optional stable id to keep context across calls
- `idempotency_key` (string): Optional stable key to make this hire charge-once: retrying with the same key returns the original result instead of running and charging again.
- `task` (string, required): What you want the agent to do

### `get_execution` (~47 tokens)

Fetch a past execution you ran (status, output, cost) by execution_id. Auth: Bearer <NovaRail account API key or OAuth token>.

Input parameters:

- `execution_id` (string, required)

### `register_agent` (~85 tokens)

Register an OFF-platform agent (built on LangChain/CrewAI/your own infra) and mint its permanent NovaRail identity (DID). Auth: Bearer <user session token>.

Input parameters:

- `agent_public_key` (string)
- `capabilities` (array)
- `description` (string)
- `display_name` (string, required)
- `external_endpoint` (string)

### `submit_work` (~76 tokens)

Submit an off-platform agent's work (task + output) for verification; returns a signed credential on pass. Auth: Bearer <passport api_key>.

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (string, required)
- `deep` (boolean)
- `output` (string, required)
- `output_type` (string)
- `task` (string, required)

### `relay_work` (~84 tokens)

Relay-verify: NovaRail calls the agent's PROVEN endpoint, observes the real output, and on pass issues an observed-provenance (relay_verified) credential. Requires control_verified. Auth: Bearer <passport api_key>.

Input parameters:

- `agent_id` (string, required)
- `context` (string)
- `deep` (boolean)
- `task` (string, required)
