## 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 2026-09-20.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - 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.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - 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**: 73/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 440 tokens (~220/item across 2 items; 2 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 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 2 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 (2)

### `screenshot` (~242 tokens)

Capture a screenshot of a web page and return it as an image. Handles consent banners, ads, lazy-loaded images and late-rendering SPAs. Use this when the layout, styling or visual appearance is what matters; use read_page when you only need the text.

Input parameters:

- `block_ads` (boolean): Block ad networks and collapse the empty slots. Default true.
- `block_chats` (boolean): Remove live-chat widgets. Default true.
- `block_cookie_banners` (boolean): Remove consent banners. Default true.
- `block_popups` (boolean): Remove newsletter and donation interstitials. Default true.
- `color_scheme` (string): Render the page in light or dark mode.
- `format` (string): Default png.
- `full_page` (boolean): Capture the entire scrollable page rather than just the viewport.
- `selector` (string): Capture only the element matching this CSS selector.
- `url` (string, required): The page to capture. Must be http or https.
- `viewport_height` (number): Viewport height in pixels. Default 800.
- `viewport_width` (number): Viewport width in pixels. Default 1280.

### `read_page` (~198 tokens)

Render a web page and return its content as clean Markdown. The page is fully rendered first - JavaScript executed, consent banners dismissed, lazy images loaded - so this works on sites that return nothing useful to a plain HTTP fetch. Prefer this over screenshot when you need to read or reason about the text.

Input parameters:

- `block_chats` (boolean): Remove live-chat widgets. Default true.
- `block_cookie_banners` (boolean): Remove consent banners. Default true.
- `block_popups` (boolean): Remove newsletter and donation interstitials. Default true.
- `max_chars` (number): Truncate the Markdown to this many characters. 0 or omitted means no limit.
- `strip_chrome` (boolean): Drop navigation, headers, footers and sidebars, keeping the main content. Default true. Set false for a full transcript of the page.
- `url` (string, required): The page to read. Must be http or https.
