## 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 2026-11-04.

- **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**: 75/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 794 tokens (~132/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 20/100
  - Stability observed for 6 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 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 7 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 (6)

### `check_linkedin_post` (~81 tokens)

Check a LinkedIn post

Check a LinkedIn post before publishing: character count against LinkedIn's 3000-character limit, the text likely shown before "see more" on desktop, a hook score, Markdown that LinkedIn will not render, placeholders, and phrases that read as AI-written. Returns concrete issues to fix.

Input parameters:

- `post` (string, required): The full post text.

### `format_linkedin_post` (~85 tokens)

Format a post for LinkedIn

Convert Markdown into text that pastes cleanly into LinkedIn: **bold** and headings become Unicode bold, *italic* becomes Unicode italic, list markers become bullets, Markdown links become plain URLs. Optionally replaces em dashes.

Input parameters:

- `post` (string, required): Post text, Markdown allowed.
- `replace_em_dashes` (boolean): Replace em dashes with commas.

### `style_linkedin_text` (~83 tokens)

Bold, italic or strikethrough text

Restyle a short piece of text with Unicode letters that keep their look when pasted into LinkedIn (bold, italic, bold italic, serif, cursive, strikethrough, underline). Use sparingly; screen readers may read styled letters poorly.

Input parameters:

- `style` (string): Style to apply.
- `text` (string, required): The words to restyle.

### `generate_linkedin_hooks` (~114 tokens)

LinkedIn hook ideas

Opening-line templates for a LinkedIn post, filled with the user's topic, audience and result. Anything the user has not supplied stays in [brackets] to replace with a real detail; nothing is invented.

Input parameters:

- `audience` (string): Who the post is for, e.g. founders.
- `result` (string): A real result the user can back up, e.g. hired 4 engineers in 30 days.
- `topic` (string, required): What the post is about, e.g. hiring engineers.

### `generate_linkedin_headlines` (~158 tokens)

LinkedIn headline options

Profile headline options built only from the user's role, audience, outcome, proof and keywords. Every option fits LinkedIn's 220-character headline limit. Does not change the profile.

Input parameters:

- `audience` (string): Who the user helps.
- `goal` (string): clients: win clients; job: get hired; general: both.
- `keywords` (string): Skills people search for.
- `outcome` (string): The result they deliver, e.g. book more sales calls.
- `proof` (string): A credential or result they can verify.
- `role` (string, required): Current or target job title.
- `tone` (string): warm phrases the value as "Helping..."; plain and bold as "I help...".

### `preview_linkedin_post` (~118 tokens)

Preview a LinkedIn post

Return a link to an approximate preview of the post in the LinkedIn feed on mobile and desktop, including about where "see more" cuts it. Pass author_name and author_headline when you know them. Opening the link saves and publishes nothing. The post text travels in the link, so share it only with people who should read the draft.

Input parameters:

- `author_headline` (string): Headline shown under the name.
- `author_name` (string): Name shown on the preview.
- `post` (string, required): The post text.
