## 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 2026-08-03.

- **Endpoint Security**: 80/100
  - 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.
  - 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**: 82/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 856 tokens (~65/item across 13 items; 3 tools + 10 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 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.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (3)

### `get_document_tool` (~100 tokens)

Get Mapbox Document Tool

Fetch the full content of a specific Mapbox documentation page by URL. Use this after get_latest_mapbox_docs_tool to follow a link from the index and retrieve the complete page content. For fetching multiple pages at once, use batch_get_documents_tool instead.

Input parameters:

- `url` (string, required): URL of a Mapbox documentation page to fetch. Must be a mapbox.com URL (e.g. https://docs.mapbox.com/api/search/geocoding/).

### `batch_get_documents_tool` (~86 tokens)

Batch Get Mapbox Documents Tool

Fetch the full content of multiple Mapbox documentation pages in a single call (max 20). More efficient than calling get_document_tool multiple times. Returns an array of results — failed pages include an error message rather than failing the whole batch.

Input parameters:

- `urls` (array, required): Array of Mapbox documentation page URLs to fetch (max 20). All must be mapbox.com URLs.

### `search_mapbox_docs_tool` (~132 tokens)

Search Mapbox Docs Tool

Search Mapbox documentation by keyword or natural language query. Searches across API reference, GL JS, Help Center, Style Spec, Studio, Search JS, iOS/Android Maps and Navigation SDKs, and Tilesets. Returns ranked results with titles, URLs, and descriptions. Use get_document_tool to fetch the full content of a result page.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Maximum number of results to return (1–20, default 5).
- `query` (string, required): Search query for Mapbox documentation (e.g. "add a marker", "camera animation", "geocoding API").
