## 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 2026-10-25.

- **Endpoint Security**: 78/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, advertised via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. Discovery is public, which costs nothing: no tool can be invoked without a token.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port redirected somewhere other than https, so enforcement is unproven.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
  - The authorisation server offers only Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591), which MCP 2026-07-28 deprecated in favour of Client ID Metadata Documents.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 0/100
  - Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but the endpoint redirected instead of responding directly.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 78/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 3151 tokens (~175/item across 18 items; 18 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 13/100
  - Stability observed for 4 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 18 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 19 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

### `cratejoy_skip_subscription_renewal` (~133 tokens)

Skip or unskip next renewal

WRITE: skip a subscriber's next renewal (action 'skip') or undo the skip (action 'unskip'). Requires confirm=true. Repeating the same action changes nothing more. This changes a merchant customer's subscription in Cratejoy; it is not this server's own billing. PUT /v1/subscriptions/{sub_id}/skip/.

### `cratejoy_cancel_customer_subscription` (~133 tokens)

Cancel a customer's subscription

WRITE: cancel a subscriber's subscription in Cratejoy (the customer stops receiving boxes and renewals).

A cancelled subscription can be restored with cratejoy_reactivate_subscription. PUT /v1/subscriptions/{sub_id}/cancel/.

Input parameters:

- `confirm` (boolean, required): Must be true: confirms the customer's subscription should be cancelled.
- `log_note` (string): Optional note recorded in the subscription's log.
- `subscription_id` (integer, required): Cratejoy subscription id.

Reactivate a customer's subscription

WRITE: reactivate a cancelled subscription so it renews and charges the customer again. Requires confirm=true. Reactivating an active subscription changes nothing more. PUT /v1/subscriptions/{sub_id}/reactivate/.

Input parameters:

- `confirm` (boolean, required): Must be true: confirms the subscription should renew (and be charged) again.
- `log_note` (string): Optional note recorded in the subscription's log.
- `subscription_id` (integer, required): Cratejoy subscription id.

### `cratejoy_retry_subscription_renewal` (~111 tokens)

Retry a failed renewal

Input parameters:

- `confirm` (boolean, required): Must be true: confirms the customer's payment method should be charged.
- `log_note` (string): Optional note recorded in the subscription's log.
- `subscription_id` (integer, required): Cratejoy subscription id (status past_due).
