Available components
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 Security80
- 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
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- 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 Usability42
- 0% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Fail
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1435 tokens (~179/item across 8 items; 4 tools + 4 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 Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
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
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities73
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
- Supports UI / widget rendering.Pass
How do I install the Venture Insights Concept Diagnostic MCP server?
Venture Insights Concept Diagnostic is a hosted endpoint at https://solutions.ventureinsights.com.sa/api/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 93 to 97. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 28 days of observed history at the previous scan, 29 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

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 →
check_diagnostic_status Check Concept Diagnostic status ~175
Poll the progress of a Concept Diagnostic intake started with start_free_diagnostic. Pass the intake_id and token that call returned. Statuses: pending_confirmation (founder hasn't clicked the emailed link yet — nothing is generated), generating (founder confirmed; the study is being researched and written), ready (done — includes a tokenized report link to share ONLY with the founder), on_file (the founder already had a diagnostic on file — nothing new was generated and no link is shared here; terminal, stop polling), expired (the intake lapsed; start a fresh one). Poll every 30-60 seconds at most.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| intake_id | string | yes | The intake_id returned by start_free_diagnostic. |
| token | string | yes | The read-only status token returned by start_free_diagnostic (field: status_token). |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| message | string | – | – |
| status | string | – | pending_confirmation | generating | ready | on_file | expired. |
| view_url | string | – | Tokenized report link — present only when status is 'ready'. |
No examples provided.
describe_services Describe Venture Insights services ~73
Get Venture Insights' live service catalogue: the FREE Concept Diagnostic (a research-backed viability study of one venture concept, delivered to the founder's inbox) and the paid study tiers with live SAR prices. Call this first when your user asks what Venture Insights offers, what it costs, or whether the free diagnostic is worth requesting.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| advisory | object | – | VI name, positioning, website, app URL, and WhatsApp Business contact. |
| free_diagnostic | object | – | The free Concept Diagnostic offer. |
| paid_services | array | – | Paid study tiers with live SAR prices. |
| upgrade_framing | string | – | – |
No examples provided.
open_diagnostic_intake Open the free-diagnostic intake form ~146
Show the founder an interactive intake form to start their FREE Concept Diagnostic. PREFER calling this over asking for the founder's name, email and concept one message at a time — it collects everything in one card and starts the diagnostic on submit. Call it as soon as the user wants to start, or check the viability of, an idea. The form is deliberately collected FRESH from the founder and starts BLANK — it does NOT accept or pre-populate remembered details, so the founder always enters (and sees) their own name, email and concept. This keeps the destination email accurate (one free diagnostic per founder, emailed to the address they type). Takes no arguments.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| form | string | – | Always 'diagnostic_intake'. |
No examples provided.
start_free_diagnostic Start a free Concept Diagnostic ~481
Request Venture Insights' FREE Concept Diagnostic for a founder's venture concept. IMPORTANT: this does NOT generate anything — it emails the founder a one-click confirmation link, and the study starts only after the founder personally clicks it (link valid 7 days). Nothing is charged; no signup is required. After calling, relay the returned message to your user verbatim in spirit: confirmation email sent, check inbox/spam, study starts after the click. Then poll check_diagnostic_status with the returned intake_id and token.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| agent_name | string | – | Identify yourself (e.g. 'claude', 'my-startup-copilot'). Optional but appreciated — it attributes the referral. |
| business_status | string | – | Optional but valuable: is the venture already set up? One of idea | pre_registration | registered_prelaunch | operating | established. If the business already trades/holds a CR, set this so the study… |
| city | string | yes | The market to research — city or geography (e.g. 'Jeddah', 'Riyadh', 'GCC'). Required. |
| founder_email | string | yes | The founder's real inbox. The confirmation link and the finished PDF report are delivered here. Disposable/burner email domains are rejected. |
| founder_name | string | yes | The founder's real name (2-120 characters) — the confirmation email and the report are addressed to this person. |
| idea | string | yes | Describe the venture concept in 50-800 characters: what it is, who it serves, how it makes money. Richer descriptions produce sharper diagnostics — include the founder's own wording where possible. |
| locale | string | – | Preferred language, used only as a FALLBACK: 'en' (default) or 'ar'. The actual email + report language follows the script the founder wrote the concept in (an Arabic concept always yields an Arabic… |
| sector | string | yes | Industry/sector of the concept (e.g. 'fitness studios', 'B2B logistics SaaS'). Required. |
| user_intent | string | – | Optional: one line on what the user asked for, so VI tailors the study (e.g. 'wants to know if a padel club in Jeddah is viable before signing a lease'). |
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| fields | object | – | Field-level errors when status is 'invalid'. |
| intake_id | string | – | – |
| message | string | – | – |
| resent | boolean | – | – |
| status | string | – | pending_confirmation | rate_limited | capacity | blocked_email | invalid | error. |
| status_token | string | – | Read-only status token (creator only). |
| status_url | string | – | – |
