## 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**: 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**: 65/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 781 tokens (~195/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 23/100
  - Stability observed for 7 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**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "get_space_jobs_pay" implies "pay" and declares readOnlyHint instead, contradicting what its own name says it does.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## MCP tools (4)

### `search_space_jobs` (~340 tokens)

Search space industry jobs

Look up open roles across the space industry (launch providers, satellite and spacecraft makers, and the suppliers behind them), gathered from the job boards of 150 employers. Each result gives the title, employer, kind of work, posted pay, the countries it accepts applicants from and an apply link on SpaceJobs.Now. Any filter can be left out.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): Two-letter ISO 3166-1 country code such as 'US', 'IN' or 'BR'; keeps only roles that accept applicants from there.
- `kind` (string): Restrict results to one kind of work, given as an enum slug such as 'propulsion', 'mechanical-structures', 'avionics-electrical'.
- `limit` (integer): Maximum number of results, anywhere from 1 to 25.
- `min_hourly_usd` (integer): The same floor as an hourly rate, counted at 2,080 hours a year. Use min_pay_usd unless the person asked in hourly terms.
- `min_pay_usd` (integer): Minimum pay as a year's pay in US dollars, e.g. 120000: a role passes when the top of its posted range reaches it. An hourly posting counts at 2,080 hours (40 a week for 52 weeks).
- `platform` (string): Employer slug, e.g. 'spacex', 'blue-origin', 'rocket-lab'. get_space_jobs_market lists them.
- `query` (string): Words to look for in role titles, such as 'propulsion', 'avionics', 'technician' or 'mission operations'.

### `get_space_jobs_pay` (~85 tokens)

What space industry work pays

Current pay in the space industry for each kind of work, as a year's pay (an hourly posting counts at 2,080 hours), taken from the pay posted on open roles: the median, the middle half (25th to 75th percentile), and the number of posted figures and employers behind each. A figure appears only where three or more employers post pay.

### `get_space_jobs_market` (~103 tokens)

Space industry job market

Counts of space industry openings: the total open now, the number first listed over the past 7 days, and breakdowns by kind of work and by employer (each employer comes with the slug search_space_jobs accepts). Pass a country to count only roles that accept applicants from it.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): Two-letter ISO 3166-1 country code such as 'US' or 'KE'; limits the counts to roles that accept applicants from there.

### `get_hiring_radar` (~96 tokens)

Space industry job market data for investors

Hiring radar is the investor dataset from SpaceJobs.Now. It holds every space industry role seen on an employer's own job board from the first time that board was read: a row per role (posted pay, field, eligible countries, opening and closing dates), daily figures per employer, and a change log. The tool reports current coverage, the available files, who uses it, the price and how to request a sample.
