## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - 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**: 77/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 445 tokens (~111/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 71/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 0% of tool parameters carry a description.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (4)

### `search-banksapi-docs` (~61 tokens)

Search BANKSapi docs

Search the BANKSapi documentation. Use this tool to find information about BANKSapi features, API endpoints, integration guides, and technical documentation. The query should be a natural language question about BANKSapi.

Input parameters:

- `query` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `content` (array)

### `get-banksapi-docs-page` (~149 tokens)

Get BANKSapi docs page

Fetch the Markdown for a single BANKSapi docs page. Accepts a docs path (e.g., /guide/quickstart) or a full URL; any .md/.html suffix and section index (e.g. /guide) are handled. For the API reference paths /api/banks-connect, /api/ai-connect and /api/pay-connect this returns a compact operation index rendered from the OpenAPI spec. Use when you need specific page content or code samples. Prefer 'search-banksapi-docs' for broader questions. Call 'get-banksapi-overview' first to get a list of available pages.

Input parameters:

- `path_or_url` (string, required)

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `get-banksapi-openapi-spec` (~153 tokens)

Get BANKSapi OpenAPI spec

Get an OpenAPI 3.0 specification for a BANKSapi API, or a targeted slice of one. Available specs: banks-connect (main API), ai-connect (AI features), pay-connect (payments). Pass operation_id to get just that operation with the schemas it references (strongly preferred — the full specs are large). Pass tag to get every operation of one section. With neither, returns the entire spec. To discover operationIds and tags, fetch the API index via get-banksapi-docs-page('/api/<spec_name>'). Returns YAML for YAML specs, JSON for JSON specs.

Input parameters:

- `operation_id`
- `spec_name` (string, required)
- `tag`

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)

### `get-banksapi-overview` (~82 tokens)

Get BANKSapi docs overview

Get a high-level, machine-readable index of BANKSapi documentation. Use this at the start of a session to discover key docs endpoints or to seed follow-up calls to 'search-banksapi-docs' or 'get-banksapi-docs-page'. Returns the plain text contents of llms.txt. Avoid repeated calls within the same session.

Output parameters:

- `result` (string)
