## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, 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)

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-11-05 (score 82, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 17 to 20. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 5 days of observed history at the previous scan, 6 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

## MCP tools (3)

### `index_constituents` (~256 tokens)

Current constituents of a major US or developed-markets equity index — ticker, name, GICS sector, and weight — sourced from the matching iShares index-tracking ETF's daily holdings file (the closest free, point-in-time proxy for official index membership and weights; S&P/Russell do not publish those for free). Answers "what's in the S&P 500 right now", "top holdings of the Russell 2000 by weight", "which sectors make up the S&P MidCap 400". Cash, collateral and futures positions the ETF holds are excluded here — use ishares_etf_holdings for those.

Input parameters:

- `index` (string, required): Which index. One of: sp500, sp400, sp600, russell1000, russell2000, eafe.
- `limit` (number): Max rows to return, sorted by weight descending (default 50, max 600 — pass the max to get the full index in one call).
- `offset` (number): Rows to skip, for paging past `limit` (default 0).
- `sector` (string): Optional GICS sector filter, case-insensitive substring match (e.g. "Health Care", "Energy").

### `ishares_etf_holdings` (~242 tokens)

Full reported holdings of one of six iShares index-tracking ETFs (IVV, IJH, IJR, IWB, IWM, EFA) as of the fund's own "as of" date — every position including cash, collateral and futures, each labeled with its asset class so they are never silently mixed in with equities. Answers "what does IVV actually hold today", "how much cash does this ETF carry". For just the equity index membership, use index_constituents instead.

Input parameters:

- `asset_class` (string): Optional filter, case-insensitive exact match against the fund's own asset-class label (e.g. "Equity", "Cash", "Futures", "Cash Collateral and Margins", "Money Market").
- `limit` (number): Max rows to return, sorted by market value descending (default 50, max 600).
- `offset` (number): Rows to skip, for paging past `limit` (default 0).
- `ticker` (string, required): One of the supported iShares ETFs: IVV, IJH, IJR, IWB, IWM, EFA.

### `constituent_changes` (~234 tokens)

Dated additions and removals from the S&P 500, sourced from Wikipedia's maintained "Historical components of the S&P 500" table (every S&P-announced swap since 1963, each with its effective date, the ticker/company added, the ticker/company removed, and the stated reason). Answers "what changed in the S&P 500 in 2024", "when was X removed from the S&P 500 and what replaced it". Only sp500 is covered — the iShares-backed indexes above have no equivalent public, dated changes table.

Input parameters:

- `from` (string): Earliest effective date to include, as a year ("2024") or ISO date ("2024-01-01"). Omit for no lower bound.
- `index` (string, required): Only "sp500" is supported.
- `limit` (number): Max rows to return, most recent first (default 50, max 600).
- `to` (string): Latest effective date to include, as a year ("2024") or ISO date ("2024-12-31"). Omit for no upper bound.
