## 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 2026-10-17.

- **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**: 74/100
  - 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 2511 tokens (~279/item across 9 items; 9 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 17/100
  - Stability observed for 5 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).
  - 99% 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 9 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 10 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.

### `lessonspace_list_sessions` (~580 tokens)

List sessions

List the organisation's sessions (a session is one meeting held in a space): name, uuid, start/end time, space, participants (name, email, role), guests, billable seconds, tags, summary and recording state. Filter by time, duration, participant, space, launch id or tags. Newest first as Lessonspace orders them. Each session's playback_url is an access link to its recording, and participant emails are personal data: treat both as sensitive and share them only with someone entitled to see them. GET /organisations/sessions/.

Input parameters:

Input parameters:

- `session` (string, required): Session uuid (the `uuid` field of a session from lessonspace_list_sessions).

### `lessonspace_get_session_recording` (~116 tokens)

Get session recording URL

The playback URL of a session's recording. status 'ready' = the URL works now; 'preparing' = Lessonspace is still creating it (ask again in a minute); 'no_recording' = recording was disabled, so none exists. The URL is an access link: give it only to someone entitled to watch the recording. GET /organisations/sessions/{session}/playback/.

Input parameters:

- `session` (string, required): Session uuid (the `uuid` field of a session from lessonspace_list_sessions).

### `lessonspace_get_session_transcript` (~92 tokens)

Get session transcript URL

A signed download URL for a session's transcript. Only works if transcription was switched on for the session (launch with transcribe=true). The URL is an access link: give it only to someone entitled to read the transcript. GET /organisations/sessions/{session}/transcript/.

Input parameters:

### `lessonspace_launch_space` (~401 tokens)

Launch a space (create a join link)

WRITE: create a space, or reuse the one with the same `id`, and get a join link (client_url) for one participant. The link is a live credential for a real person: share it only with that person and never post it elsewhere. Calling again with the same id reuses the space but issues a new link; it is not safe to repeat blindly. Lessonspace's own `secret` is never returned. POST /spaces/launch/.

Input parameters:

- `allow_guests` (boolean): Let people without an invitation join (Lessonspace default true).
- `id` (string, required): Your id for the space. The same id returns the same space; a new id creates a new space.
- `locale` (string): Interface language.
- `name` (string): Display name of the space (defaults to the id).
- `not_after` (string): The link stops working at this time (default and maximum: 7 days after not_before, or after now).
- `not_before` (string): The link works from this time (default: now).
- `record_av` (boolean): Record audio and video.
- `record_content` (boolean): Record the whiteboard and documents (defaults to record_av).
- `server` (string): Region of the space. If omitted, Lessonspace picks it from the IP location of this server, which is near the AI platform and not near the participant. When the user's region matters, pass the `region…
- `session_tags` (object): Tags put on the session (for filtering later).
- `space_tags` (object): Tags put on the space.
- `summarise` (boolean): Create an AI lesson summary.
- `transcribe` (boolean): Transcribe the session (needed for lessonspace_get_session_transcript).
- `user` (object): The participant this link is for.
- `video_layout_mode` (string)

### `lessonspace_list_users` (~163 tokens)

List users

List the organisation's users: Lessonspace user id, name, email, role (teacher, student, admin), active state and external id. Names and emails are personal data. GET /organisations/users/.

Input parameters:

- `page` (integer): Page number, from 1 (default 1). Pass the previous reply's next_page. The page size is fixed by Lessonspace.
- `role` (array): One or more roles to keep (teacher, student, admin).
- `search` (string): Part of a name or email.
- `session_ids` (array): Session uuids; users who attended these sessions (sent as repeated parameters).
- `space_ids` (array): Space ids; users who attended sessions in these spaces (sent as repeated parameters).

### What is the Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi server?

Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi is listed in the public MCP registry as io.usefulapi/lessonspace. Read Lessonspace sessions, recordings, transcripts, spaces and users; launch spaces, edit sessions. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://lessonspace.usefulapi.io/mcp).

### Is the Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi server safe to use?

Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi scores 63 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi server expose?

Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi exposes 9 tools: lessonspace_list_sessions, lessonspace_get_session, lessonspace_get_session_recording, lessonspace_get_session_transcript, lessonspace_update_session, and 4 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,308 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi server require authentication?

Yes. Lessonspace MCP by usefulapi asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.
