## 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**: 63/100
  - 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 enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - 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
  - 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 787 tokens (~98/item across 8 items; 8 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **Tool Coverage**: 83/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 50% 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 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 8 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.

## Install

### How do I install the Community Funding NZ MCP server?

Community Funding NZ is a hosted endpoint at https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

## MCP tools (8)

### `list_filters` (~39 tokens)

List valid search filters

Returns the exact region slugs, organisation type values and difficulty levels accepted by search_funders. Call this first if you are unsure which value to use.

### `search_funders` (~195 tokens)

Search grant funders

Search New Zealand community grant funders. Returns up to 25 compact rows per call with a total count; use offset to page. Combine filters: region (slug from list_filters), org_type, purpose keywords, max_amount in NZD, difficulty. Use get_funder for the full profile of a result.

Input parameters:

- `difficulty` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `max_amount` (integer): Only funders whose minimum grant is at or below this NZD amount
- `offset` (integer)

- `purpose` (string): Keyword matched against eligible purposes and priorities, e.g. youth, environment, marae
- `query` (string): Free text matched against funder name and description
- `region` (string): Region slug, e.g. tasman. Funders tagged national always match.

### `get_funder` (~72 tokens)

Get full funder profile

Full profile for one funder by slug: what they prioritise, language tips, common mistakes, success factors, required documents, application sections, the extracted application form questions, and upcoming funding rounds. Use this before preparing or drafting an application.

Input parameters:

- `slug` (string, required): Funder slug from search_funders

### `rounds_closing_soon` (~86 tokens)

Funding rounds closing soon

Funding rounds whose closing date falls within the next N days (default 30, max 180), soonest first. Optional region filter (slug from list_filters). Dates are New Zealand dates. Always confirm the date on the funder's own site before relying on it.

- `notes` (string): What they fund, who is eligible, deadlines, anything you know
- `region` (string): Region slug if the funder is regional

## Common questions

### What is the Community Funding NZ MCP server?

Community Funding NZ is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.NavtejDhillon/grants. Search 380+ New Zealand community grant funders, deadlines and application questions. No login. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp).

### Is the Community Funding NZ MCP server safe to use?

Community Funding NZ scores 81 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 Community Funding NZ MCP server expose?

Community Funding NZ exposes 8 tools: list_filters, search_funders, get_funder, rounds_closing_soon, rounds_opening_soon, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 787 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Community Funding NZ MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the Community Funding NZ MCP server still maintained?

Community Funding NZ 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 Community Funding NZ MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 12 checks on Community Funding NZ, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HSTS header, DNSSEC and 8 more. One item could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about Community Funding NZ: HTTPS. 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.
