## 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 2026-09-20.

- **Endpoint Security**: 57/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 3 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - 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**: 79/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 470 tokens (~156/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 40/100
  - Stability observed for 12 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**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (3)

### `validate_address` (~83 tokens)

FREE pre-send check of an EVM address: EIP-55 checksum verification (catches typos, dropped characters, clipboard malware) + a note that a passing checksum is a spell-check, not payee verification. Run this before paying for check_address.

Input parameters:

- `address` (string, required): EVM address, 0x + 40 hex characters (any casing)

### `check_address` (~186 tokens)

Paid pre-send verification of one EVM address on one chain ($0.01 USDC via x402, EIP-3009 on Base): checksum, wallet-vs-contract, outgoing activity, native/USDC/USDT balances, leveled verdict with reasons and next action. TWO-PHASE: call without x_payment first to get the exact payment challenge (payTo, amount, asset), sign the USDC transfer, then call again with x_payment = the resulting X-Payment header to get the report. No account, no API key — the payment is the authentication.

Input parameters:

- `address` (string, required): EVM address, 0x + 40 hex characters
- `chain` (string): Chain to scan (default: base)
- `x_payment` (string): X-Payment header value from your signed EIP-3009 transfer (second phase only)

### `deep_scan` (~135 tokens)

Paid deep scan: the full verification across ALL FIVE chains (Base, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon) incl. wrong-network detection and USDC/USDT token-mismatch flags ($0.05 USDC via x402, EIP-3009 on Base). TWO-PHASE like check_address: first call returns the payment challenge; second call with x_payment returns the report.

Input parameters:

- `address` (string, required): EVM address, 0x + 40 hex characters
- `x_payment` (string): X-Payment header value from your signed EIP-3009 transfer (second phase only)
