Schema Quality & AI Usability72
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 814 tokens (~162/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

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 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (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 →
compare_remittance_corridors Compare Remittance Corridors ~170
Compare typical costs of sending money to Kenya on one corridor (US_KE, UK_KE or CA_KE) for an amount in US dollars, across provider types. Use when someone asks which way of sending money costs least. An unknown corridor returns an error listing the supported ones. The prices are SYNTHETIC illustrations, not World Bank or live provider data. Returns the corridor, amount, the provider comparison, the global average and SDG target percentages for context, and a note. Always check real prices at remittanceprices.worldbank.org before sending. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| amount_usd | number | – | Amount in USD to send (or equivalent) |
| corridor | string | yes | Corridor code: US_KE, UK_KE, CA_KE |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
estimate_savings Estimate Savings ~162
Estimate how much a person could save by moving from their current provider to a cheaper option on a corridor, per month and per year in US dollars and in KES (at a fixed 130 KES per USD). Use when someone asks what switching would save. An unknown corridor returns an error. Based on SYNTHETIC illustrative prices and a fixed exchange rate, not live data. Returns the monthly and annual savings and a note. Verify with live provider rates. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| corridor | string | yes | Corridor code: US_KE, UK_KE, CA_KE |
| current_provider | string | yes | Current provider name (partial match OK) |
| monthly_amount_usd | number | yes | Monthly remittance amount in USD |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
kenya_remittance_inflows Kenya Remittance Inflows ~133
Get Kenya's official personal remittance inflows for recent years from the World Bank's World Development Indicators, in US dollars and as a share of GDP. Use when someone needs the size or trend of money sent home to Kenya, for context on the corridors. Returns one row per year with both measures, the indicator codes, the source with its licence and the retrieval time; on a network or service failure it returns an error instead of figures. Read-only; contacts an external service.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| years | integer | – | How many of the most recent years with data to return, between 1 and 20. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
list_corridors List Corridors ~113
List the remittance corridors the server supports (US_KE, UK_KE, CA_KE) with plain descriptions, plus context on Kenya's remittance inflows (USD 4.94 billion in calendar 2024 per the Central Bank of Kenya). Use first, to learn valid corridor codes for the other tools. Takes no arguments. Returns the corridors, their descriptions and a note that the data are synthetic. The server does not model PAPSS or Pesalink routes. Read-only; no side effects.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
live_exchange_rate Live Exchange Rate ~167
Get today's exchange rate from a sending currency (for example USD, GBP, CAD or EUR) to Kenyan shillings, from a free live rates service, and optionally convert an amount. Use when someone asks how many shillings their money is worth today, or wants to sanity-check a provider's quoted rate. Returns the rate, the converted amount if given, the time the rates were last updated, the source and its required attribution; on a network or service failure it returns an error instead of a rate. Read-only; contacts an external service.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| amount | – | – | Optional amount in the sending currency to convert to KES; must be positive. |
| base_currency | string | – | Three-letter ISO code of the sending currency, for example USD, GBP, CAD or EUR. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
