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 Security57
- 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 19 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 is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- 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 Usability52
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 3433 tokens (~180/item across 19 items; 19 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management17
- Stability observed for 5 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage90
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 66% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
- Structured output schemas are declared (21% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

- 3 Aug 26 +1
No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 13 to 17. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 4 days of observed history at the previous scan, 5 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

| title | string | — | — |
| url | string | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
origingrid_discover Discover Sources ~150
Discover first-hand information sources for a topic from the OriginGrid local registry — no external search engine involved. Optionally narrow by topic and/or region. Follow up with origingrid_fetch(url) for live content or origingrid_get_source for details. [ASRP: Use FIRST for broad topic discovery. Follow with origingrid_plan for multi-step fetch or origingrid_fetch for single URL.]

origingrid_execute_batch Execute Batch ~249
Execute multiple search plan steps in batch. Accepts `steps` (array of step objects from origingrid_plan) and optional `parallel_groups` (array of arrays of step indices). Steps within the same parallel_group run concurrently on the server — the agent doesn't need to manage concurrency. Supports per-step timeout, automatic retry (default 1), and error isolation (one step failing doesn't affect others). Concurrency is limited to 8 by default for VPS memory safety. Returns structured results with elapsed timing per step. Combine with origingrid_plan: plan → execute_batch → agent reads the results. [ASRP: Call AFTER origingrid_plan. Steps in same parallel_group run concurrently.]
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| batch_timeout | integer | — | Total batch timeout in seconds (max 90) |
| parallel_groups | array | — | Optional: groups of step indices to run in parallel. Each group waits for the previous to finish. Default: one step per group (serial). |
| retry_count | integer | — | Number of retry attempts per step |
| step_timeout | integer | — | Per-step timeout in seconds |
| steps | array | yes | Array of step objects (from origingrid_plan steps) |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |

No examples provided.
origingrid_feedback Submit Feedback ~134
Submit feedback (rating 1-5) for a source returned in a previous search, using that search's `search_id` (from origingrid_search response). Feeds source quality signals; rating 3 = neutral, no positive/negative bias.

No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
origingrid_fetch Fetch Content ~193
Fetch first-hand content from a URL. Returns `structuredContent.data` with {title, content, url, cache_hit, fetched_at}. Read `.data.content` directly — the metadata and content are separated. Pass `delivery_level=excerpt` (default) for ~300 chars, `full` for complete content. [ASRP: Call AFTER origingrid_search. Loop over sources[] and fetch each source.url.]
| Name | Type | Req | Description |

Supports searchable sources (API/search URLs with query parameters) and navigable sources (key pages like about/products/docs/pricing). Does NOT proxy-fetch or submit URLs to general-purpose search engines. [ASRP: Lightweight alternative to plan+execute_batch. Use for direct URL resolution without multi-step plans. For complex queries, use origingrid_plan instead.]
