## 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. Nothing on it is marked destructive, but we can't show that an anonymous caller can only read: full credit needs the server to list at least one tool and every tool to be verifiably read-only. We use a best-effort check of tool names and descriptions to tell read-only tools from tools that change things, so some genuinely read-only tools may not get full credit. Names that start with a read verb (get, list, read, search and similar) and accurate readOnlyHint annotations help. Meet that to earn full credit, or require authorisation.
  - 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**: 67/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 772 tokens (~257/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 93/100
  - Stability observed for 28 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.
  - All 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## MCP tools (3)

### `compare_texas_electricity_plans` (~529 tokens)

Compare Texas electricity plans

This tool ranks the Texas electricity plans at a ZIP code by what each would cost over a year at the person's own monthly kWh (not the 1,000 kWh figure plan ads quote). Free, no account. No electricity company pays ElectricityFinder (Odigital LLC, PUCT broker BR260062); it is paid only by subscribers to an optional plan on its site. Order: lowest projected yearly cost first, within the contract length in term_filter (default: usually 12 months; term_filter says which length was used and why); plans whose price depends on conditions (bill credits, time-of-use, usage tiers) come after plans without them. Each plan comes with its projected yearly cost at that usage and its Electricity Facts Label (efl_url), the Texas-required label of the plan's rates, fees and terms. price_conditions is null when ElectricityFinder found no condition on a plan's price, and otherwise holds the kind and a note written to be repeated as is; a null does not rule out conditions, and the EFL is the authority. link reopens the same comparison on electricityfinder.online, re-priced with that day's plans; it does not expire. revisit holds the link and a suggested reminder date. cheapest_any_term names a cheaper plan of another contract length when there is one. utility_note is set when a co-op or city utility serves the ZIP; homes it serves cannot choose a retail plan. A Variable or Indexed rate_type means the price can change from month to month. interval_data comes from a fixed rule and says whether 15-minute meter data could change the cheapest plan for this home. interval_data.paid_plan, present only when the verdict is interval_data_can_change_the_answer, describes the optional paid plan that prices on 15-minute data. how_to_get_my_usage explains how to get the monthly kWh numbers this tool takes.

Input parameters:

- `average_monthly_kwh` (number): Only when monthly numbers are not known: one typical month. Less accurate, because summer and winter differ.
- `term` (string): Contract length to rank. default (the site's own default: usually 12 months; 24 when 24-month plans are the most common), 12, 24, or any (includes month-to-month plans).
- `usage` (array): Up to 12 months of usage. Best: the last 12 months. Totals of a Smart Meter Texas 15-minute file, by month, are fine.
- `zip` (string, required): 5-digit Texas ZIP code of the home.

### `how_to_get_my_usage` (~56 tokens)

How to get my electricity usage

How a Texas household gets 12 months of electricity usage (kWh) for compare_texas_electricity_plans: Smart Meter Texas download, bills, or one typical month. Also explains when monthly numbers are enough.

### `send_feedback` (~187 tokens)

Send feedback to ElectricityFinder

Sends feedback to the people who run ElectricityFinder: a price or plan that looks wrong, an answer that was confusing, a missing feature, or an error. It is for when the person asks to send feedback. The message holds their words about the problem, not the conversation; personal details (names, addresses, emails, ESI IDs, account numbers) do not belong in it.

Input parameters:

- `kind` (string, required): wrong_data: a price, plan or utility looks wrong. confusing: the answer was hard to use. missing_feature: something the person needed. bug: an error.
- `message` (string, required): What happened and what was expected, in plain words. No names, addresses, emails or account numbers.
- `plan` (string): Provider and plan name the feedback is about, if any.
- `zip` (string): The ZIP the feedback is about, if any.

## Common questions

### What is the ElectricityFinder MCP server?

ElectricityFinder is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.konradish/electricityfinder. Free: ranks Texas electricity plans by yearly cost at your kWh. Paid by subscribers, not providers. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://electricityfinder.online/mcp).

### Is the ElectricityFinder MCP server safe to use?

ElectricityFinder scores 83 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 ElectricityFinder MCP server expose?

ElectricityFinder exposes 3 tools: compare_texas_electricity_plans, how_to_get_my_usage, send_feedback. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 772 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the ElectricityFinder MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to ElectricityFinder without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the ElectricityFinder MCP server still maintained?

ElectricityFinder is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the ElectricityFinder MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 13 checks on ElectricityFinder, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 9 more. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
