Available components
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. How we score →
Endpoint Security46
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 12 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS not yet verified: we couldn't determine whether a plaintext access path exists. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 1221 tokens (~101/item across 12 items; 12 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage67
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 23 to 27. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 7 days of observed history at the previous scan, 8 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

check_timetable_conflicts ~120
Checks a set of NTNU courses for the same year for clashing lecture/lab times and colliding exam dates — a clash check to run before registering for courses. Accepts bare course codes. Each side of a conflict carries its activity 'kind': a lecture-vs-lecture clash is unavoidable, while one involving an exercise or lab often has alternative groups. Exam dates come from the catalog, which does not mark deferred (utsatt/kont) sittings.

get_course_info ~131
Everything about an NTNU course except exam logistics: credits, level, campus, language of instruction, prerequisites, mandatory activities, course content / learning outcomes, credit reductions ('studiepoengreduksjon'), which study programs the teaching is planned for, contacts, and any alert notices (e.g. 'no longer taught'). English text by default; pass language 'nb' for Norwegian. Omit year for the current study year. For exam dates, times, aid codes, and rooms use get_exam_info.

| course_code | string | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_exam_info ~129
Exam logistics for one or more NTNU courses in a single call: every exam occasion (ordinary / re-sit) with date, start time, duration, permitted-aids code ('hjelpemiddelkode') with its meaning, exam system, and assigned rooms. The way to answer 'when and where are my exams and what can I bring' for a whole semester at once. Rooms are only published days before the exam; unpublished fields are null. Omit year for the current study year.

get_grade_distribution ~89
Historical grade distribution for an NTNU course (per year and semester, with counts and percentages; grades A-F, or pass/fail codes). Accepts bare codes like 'TDT4100'. Omit years to get all recorded years. Small counts may be privacy-masked. Data comes from Norway's official DBH statistics.

get_semesters ~52

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_study_plan ~127
The official study plan for an NTNU program and cohort intake year: which courses (codes, credits, mandatory/elective) belong to each semester, and the specialization choice points with their course groups. The bridge from 'I study X' to concrete course codes — feed them to get_weekly_timetable, check_timetable_conflicts, or get_exam_info. cohort_year is the year the student STARTED (defaults to the current cohort); students in their Nth year started N-1 years ago.

get_weekly_timetable ~101
The recurring weekly timetable grid for a course in a year: weekday, times, ISO-week ranges, rooms, and a classified 'kind' per slot (lecture / exercise / lab / seminar / unknown). The compact way to answer 'when are the lectures for X' — filter on kind == 'lecture', since NTNU's own activity titles are free-form Norwegian text.

search_courses ~98
Search NTNU's course catalog for a given year (server-side free-text search over course names and codes; Norwegian terms often match best, e.g. 'maskinlæring' rather than 'machine learning'). Call this first when you don't know the exact course code. Returns course codes, Norwegian names, campus, and exam dates.
