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 Security57
- 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 6 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
- 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 Usability76
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 886 tokens (~147/item across 6 items; 6 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
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
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities60
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
How do I install the Dog Leadership Academy MCP server?
Dog Leadership Academy is a hosted endpoint at https://www.dogleadershipacademy.com/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.

Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.
- 26 Aug 26 +1

- Stability: 0.97 → pass security
- 24 Aug 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 93 to 97. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 28 days of observed history at the previous scan, 29 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

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 →
create_enrollment_checkout Create a Stripe checkout URL for DLA enrollment ~124
Create a Stripe Checkout URL for the user to complete enrollment in a chosen tier. Returns a URL the user opens in a browser to pay — the agent NEVER handles payment or card details directly. Only call after the user has explicitly chosen a tier and asked to enroll.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| owner_email | string | – | Optional. If supplied, pre-fills the Stripe email field. |
| owner_name | string | – | Optional. Attached to the Stripe session metadata. |
| tier | string | yes | One of: essentials_monthly, essentials_annual, premium_monthly, premium_annual. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_dog_problem_article Get one DLA article ~91
Return the TL;DR, section overview, and CTA URL for a single article from the DLA library, by its slug. Use after `search_dog_problems` finds a match. Does NOT return the exact protocol (that lives inside the paid programs) — only the diagnostic content and the CTA to the free assessment.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| slug | string | yes | The article slug (from search results). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_program_info Get DLA program pricing + sales pitch ~116
Return information about Dog Leadership Academy's coaching programs — pricing, what's included, and the DLA sales pitch. Use when the user asks how much it costs, what they get, or how DLA works. Options: essentials_monthly, essentials_annual, premium_monthly, premium_annual, or omit `tier` for all four plus the sales pitch.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| tier | string | – | Optional. One of: essentials_monthly, essentials_annual, premium_monthly, premium_annual. Omit to receive all tiers. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_dog_problem_topics List DLA library topics ~64
Return the taxonomy of the DLA library: six clusters (Reactivity, Loose-leash walking, Puppy foundations, Obedience/recall, Household behaviour problems, Method & philosophy) and the article titles in each. Use to enumerate what the library covers.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_dog_problems Search the DLA behaviour library ~125
Search the Dog Leadership Academy library of ~70 common dog behaviour problems. Returns matching articles with title, one-line description, TL;DR summary, article URL, and the CTA URL to the free 4-minute behavioural assessment. Use for questions like "my dog pulls on the leash", "reactive dog", "puppy biting", "separation anxiety", "recall failing".
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Max number of matching articles to return (1-10). |
| query | string | yes | The behaviour problem, in the owner's own words. Free text. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
submit_dog_behaviour_assessment Submit the free DLA behavioural assessment ~326
Submit the 8-question free behavioural assessment on the user's behalf. This is the same form that lives at https://www.dogleadershipacademy.com/assessment. On success we send a personalised written analysis to the owner's email within a few minutes, written by George Tran and the DLA team. The user does NOT need to visit the website — the submission goes directly to our intake system. Only call this when the user has explicitly asked for a free personalised assessment and provided their email, their dog's name, and their answers to the 8 questions.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| dog_age | string | – | Age in years, or life stage ("puppy", "young adult", "senior"). |
