## 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 2026-09-29.

- **Endpoint Security**: 57/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 2 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - 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**: 83/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 274 tokens (~137/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 3/100
  - Stability observed for 1 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 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - 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 supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (2)

### `explain_document` (~167 tokens)

Explain a contract or official letter

Explains a contract, official letter, tax assessment or terms-and-conditions document in plain language, clause by clause. Send the full text of the document. Returns every relevant clause with the original wording, a plain language version and why it matters, plus a short summary. It explains what the document says — it does not give legal advice, does not review the document and does not recommend a course of action. Takes 20 to 60 seconds. If it is still running when this call returns, use get_explanation with the returned analysis_id.

Input parameters:

- `language` (string): Language the explanation should be written in (ISO 639-1). Defaults to English. The document itself may be in any language.
- `text` (string, required): The full text of the document to explain.

### `get_explanation` (~45 tokens)

Fetch a running or finished explanation

Fetches the result of an explain_document call that was still running. Pass the analysis_id it returned.

Input parameters:

- `analysis_id` (string, required): The analysis_id returned by explain_document.
