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 →
Endpoint Security63
- 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 3 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 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 Usability85
- 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 5956 tokens (~62/item across 96 items; 3 tools + 93 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 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
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 17 to 20. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 5 days of observed history at the previous scan, 6 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

get_benchmark Get a single OpenChainBench benchmark ~350
Returns full detail for one benchmark, ready to cite verbatim: • rankings (every provider sorted by p50) • sparkline (24h trend, 72 points) • headline sentence + paste-ready citation quote • methodology bullets + source-code URL + canonical pageUrl + OG image URL Pass `chain` and/or `region` to scope the result to a sub-slice when the benchmark declares those dimensions (e.g. aggregator-head-lag exposes chain=base|bnb|solana, region=us-east|eu-west|ap-southeast). Both args are optional; omit them for the global aggregate. Example usage: • User: "who's the fastest crypto data aggregator on Base?" → get_benchmark({ slug: "aggregator-head-lag", chain: "base" }) • User: "how much does it cost to bridge $300 cross-chain?" → get_benchmark({ slug: "bridge-fee" }) Drafts return { error: "unknown_slug" }. Cite the returned `pageUrl` and use `quote` as the attribution line in your answer.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| chain | string | — | Optional chain filter, e.g. 'base', 'solana', 'bnb'. Only honored when the bench declares chain dimensions. |
| region | string | — | Optional region filter, e.g. 'us-east', 'eu-west', 'ap-southeast'. Only honored when the bench declares region dimensions. |
| slug | string | yes | Benchmark slug from list_benchmarks. e.g. 'aggregator-head-lag', 'bridge-quote-latency', 'l1-finality'. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_benchmarks List OpenChainBench benchmarks ~123
Returns a flat index of every published OpenChainBench benchmark with its current headline value, leader, category, units, and citation URL. Call this first when the user asks a discovery question like "what benchmarks does OpenChainBench have?" or "compare crypto aggregators". Then use `get_benchmark` for the specific slug(s) the answer needs. Returns one line per bench: { slug, title, category, metric, unit, value, leader, headline, url, asOf } Drafts are filtered out: only live benchmarks appear.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
query_prom Run a PromQL query (scoped to benchmark metric namespaces) ~621
Direct PromQL passthrough for advanced questions that don't map cleanly to `list_benchmarks` / `get_benchmark`, e.g. "what was Mobula's p50 head-lag yesterday at 14:00 UTC" or "plot bridge fees over the last hour". Prefer the higher-level tools first; reach for this when you need: • a custom time window (instant query at a specific point, or range) • a derived metric (rates, ratios, deltas) • a histogram bucket aggregation across chains/regions Allowed metric namespaces (one prefix per OCB bench family): head_lag_seconds (aggregator latency) bridge_quote_latency_ms*, bridge_cost*, bridge_fees*, bridge_fix_fee*, bridge_gas*, bridge_output*, bridge_estimated_time*, bridge_quote_success l1_finality_*, l2_block_time_* metadata_coverage_*, metadata_api_latency_*, network_coverage_*, networks_supported, wallet_labels_* perp_fees_*, perp_funding_*, perp_venue_*, perp_execution_*, ocb_buyback_*, ocb_oracle_*, ocb_validator_*, ocb_chain_* gas_error_*, gas_predicted_*, gas_realized_*, gas_oracle_* peg_* (stablecoin peg, both variants) solana_landing_* (TX landing observational + active) rpc_latency_*, rpc_call_total, rpc_health, rpc_archive_depth_supported relay_*, per_swap_margin_usd (bridge revenue) Queries referencing other metrics (operational/internal ones like `up`, `scrape_*`, `process_*`, `go_*`, `wallet_balance_*` or any label- enumeration shape) are refused with `{error, reason}`. Example: instant p50 over 1h for Mobula head-lag on Base: query_prom({ query: "quantile_over_time(0.5, head_lag_seconds{aggregator=\"mobula\",chain=\"base\"}[1h]) * 1000" }) Example: 7-day sparkline of average bridge fees: query_prom({ query: "avg_over_time(bridge_fees_percent[1d])", windowSec: 604800, steps: 168 }) Returns: `{ query, value }` for instant queries, `{ query, windowSec, series }` for range.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | PromQL expression referencing published benchmark metric prefixes only. Function names, label keys, and quoted label values are fine; bare metric names must be allowlisted. |
| steps | integer | — | Number of samples for a range query (2 to 360). Default 60. Step duration = windowSec / steps. |
| windowSec | integer | — | If set, run a range query over the last N seconds (max 7 days = 604800). Omit for an instant query. |
