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 Security66
  • 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 2 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
  • The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
  • DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability59
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 540 tokens (~270/item across 2 items; 2 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 Management27
  • Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

MCP tools — 2 exposed · ~490 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability.

Tool Tokens
evaluate_step ~358

Ask the AgenticRail gate to ALLOW or DENY a single step of an agent sequence BEFORE it runs. The gate is deterministic (same state+request → same verdict) and enforces step order, replay protection (nonce), timestamp freshness, and sealing. A denied step must not be executed. Every decision is sealed into an Ed25519-signed, hash-chained receipt. Returns the decision (ALLOW/DENY/HALT), any reason codes, and receipt metadata. Use the demo key by sending no Authorization header (sequence IDs are auto-prefixed 'demo-'), or send Authorization: Bearer <your-key>.

NameTypeReqDescription
actionstringOptional human-readable label for the action.
action_typestringyesThe action class for this step, e.g. CHECK_STATE, SELECT_NEXT_STEP, RECORD_RESULT, PAUSE_CYCLE. Must be permitted for the step.
functionstringDefaults to `step`. The rule step === function always holds.
inputsobjectOptional free-form inputs recorded with the decision.
noncestringOptional unique-per-step UUID for replay protection. Generated automatically if omitted.
sequence_idstringyesStable identifier for this run of the sequence. Reuse it across every step of the same sequence. Demo callers get a 'demo-' prefix.
stepstringyesThe step being attempted, e.g. 'intake' or 'review_and_sign'. Must appear in step_order (for custom sequences) and must equal `function`.
step_orderarrayThe full ordered list of step names for a CUSTOM sequence. Send it on every call. Omit only if using AgenticRail's built-in MSMD spine.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

verify_receipt ~132

Fetch the verification report for an AgenticRail sequence and report whether its receipt chain is intact. Demo- sequences need no key; other sequences need Authorization: Bearer <your-key>. Returns the verification_status (VERIFIED_INTACT / CHAIN_BROKEN / …) plus the per-receipt signature, chain-hash, and independent-archive checks. This is the same evidence a third party can verify offline against the published Ed25519 keys — no need to trust AgenticRail.

NameTypeReqDescription
sequence_idstringyesThe sequence to verify. Use a 'demo-' sequence for keyless verification.
