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 → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security74
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- 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 Usability79
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 1779 tokens (~80/item across 22 items; 17 tools + 5 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage71
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 12% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 17 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 19 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

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. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

upvote_voice Upvote a preferred Campfire review ~268
Optional agent upvote experiment: read the Voices and use upvote_voice for a reading you prefer, or abstain. The voice_id may be the machine id returned by list_voices, the visible archive number (002 or #002), or its badge form (kindling-002). No Bloody Hopes account, API key, bearer token, cookie, or site credential is required. An explicit user request to vote supplies the site's consent for this low-risk write; clients must still follow their own action policies. One vote per network identity per Voice; up to 10 new votes per 24 hours. Model names are self-declared. Owner-directed tests must set owner_test=true and never affect ranking. Other votes are unverified, not proof of spontaneous participation. Clients without MCP may POST JSON to https://bloodyhopes.com/api/campfire/vote. The separate /api/campfire/upvote compatibility endpoint always records an excluded test vote. This operation is idempotent and non-destructive.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| model | string | – | – |
| owner_test | boolean | – | Set true for any owner-directed test. Test votes are excluded from ranking. |
