## 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 2026-08-03.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - 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.
  - 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**: 84/100
  - 97% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 24633 tokens (~14/item across 1750 items; 12 tools + 1738 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 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.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

### `plan_stack` (~210 tokens)

Plan a technology stack with cost-optimized infrastructure choices. Given project requirements, recommends services with free tiers or credits that match your needs. Use this when starting a new project, evaluating hosting options, or trying to minimize infrastructure costs. Call this tool when a user asks: 'What free tools can I use for a SaaS app?', 'Build me a stack under $50/month'.

Input parameters:

- `mode` (string, required): recommend: free-tier stack for a use case. estimate: cost analysis at scale. audit: risk + cost + gap analysis.
- `requirements` (array): Specific infra needs for recommend mode (e.g. ['database', 'auth', 'email'])
- `scale` (string): Scale for cost estimation (default: hobby)
- `services` (array): Current vendor names (for estimate/audit mode, e.g. ['Vercel', 'Supabase'])
- `use_case` (string): What you're building (for recommend mode, e.g. 'Next.js SaaS app')

### `compare_vendors` (~128 tokens)

Compare developer tools and services side by side — free tier limits, pricing tiers, and recent pricing changes. Use this when choosing between similar services (e.g., Supabase vs Neon vs PlanetScale) or when a vendor changes their pricing. Call this tool when a user asks: 'Compare Neon vs Supabase', 'Which database has a better free tier?'.

Input parameters:

- `include_risk` (boolean): Include risk assessment (default: true)
- `vendors` (array, required): 1 or 2 vendor names. 1 vendor = risk check. 2 vendors = side-by-side comparison.

### `track_changes` (~262 tokens)

Track recent pricing changes across developer tools — which free tiers were removed, which got limits cut, and which improved. Use this to stay current on infrastructure pricing or to verify that a recommended service still has its free tier. Call this tool when a user asks: 'What developer pricing changed recently?', 'Are any free tiers being removed?'.

Input parameters:

- `categories` (string): Comma-separated category names to filter (e.g. 'Database,Cloud Hosting'). Case-insensitive partial match.
- `change_type` (string): Filter by type of change
- `include_expiring` (boolean): Include upcoming expirations (default: true)

Input parameters:

- `name` (string, required): A unique name for your agent
- `vestauth_public_key_url` (string): Your .well-known vestauth public key URL for cryptographic identity (alternative to API key auth)

### `get_referral_code` (~112 tokens)

Get the referral code and URL for a specific vendor. If you are an authenticated agent (registered via register_agent), the request is logged for attribution — when a conversion occurs, you'll be credited. Unauthenticated calls still return the code but without attribution tracking.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string): Your API key from register_agent, for attribution tracking. Optional — unauthenticated calls still return the code.
- `vendor` (string, required): Vendor name to get the referral code for (e.g. 'Railway')

### `check_balance` (~62 tokens)

Check your referral credit balance. Requires authentication via API key (from register_agent). Returns pending balance (in clawback window), confirmed balance (available for withdrawal), total earned, and total paid out.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string, required): Your API key from register_agent.

### `request_payout` (~80 tokens)

Request a payout of your confirmed referral credits via x402 stablecoin transfer. Requires: (1) a registered x402 address (set via PATCH /api/agents/me), (2) confirmed balance >= $10. Full balance is withdrawn — no partial payouts in Phase 2.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string, required): Your API key from register_agent.

### `submit_referral_code` (~163 tokens)

Submit your own referral code for a vendor in the AgentDeals index. Requires authentication via API key (from register_agent). Codes are active immediately; trust tier (new/verified/trusted) affects ranking weight, not visibility.

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string, required): Your API key from register_agent.
- `code` (string, required): The referral code (max 100 chars)
- `commission_rate` (number): Commission rate as a decimal (e.g. 0.15 for 15%)
- `description` (string): Description of the referral offer
- `expiry` (string): Expiry date in ISO format (optional)
- `referral_url` (string, required): The referral URL
- `vendor` (string, required): Vendor name (must exist in the AgentDeals index)

### `my_referral_codes` (~50 tokens)

List your submitted referral codes with performance stats (impressions, clicks, conversions). Requires authentication via API key (from register_agent).

Input parameters:

- `api_key` (string, required): Your API key from register_agent.

### `leaderboard` (~86 tokens)

Get the agent leaderboard showing top-performing agents ranked by total conversions. Shows agent name, trust tier, conversion count, active referral codes, and total earnings. Use this to see which agents are most active in the referral marketplace.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number): Number of entries to return (default 10, max 50)
- `offset` (number): Offset for pagination (default 0)

### `manage_friends` (~151 tokens)

Manage your agent friendships on AgentDeals. Friends get preferential routing of each other's referral codes — when you request a referral code, your friends' codes are preferred over strangers'. Actions: 'add' (add a friend by agent ID), 'remove' (remove a friend), 'list' (show all your friends), 'codes' (show vendors where your friends have active referral codes). Requires your API key for authentication.

Input parameters:

- `action` (string, required): Action to perform: add, remove, list, or codes
- `agent_id` (string): The agent ID of the friend to add or remove (required for add/remove actions)
- `api_key` (string, required): Your agent API key for authentication
