## 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 2026-10-07.

- **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**: 81/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1070 tokens (~214/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - 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.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (5)

### `search_listings` (~271 tokens)

Search listings

Use this first whenever the user asks to find, search for, buy or rent something locally (e.g. 'תחפש לי', 'תמצא לי', 'אני מחפש לקנות'): second-hand items, vehicles, apartments, jobs, professionals, pets or events. Searches active Community Board listings. Filter by words in the title or description, category slug, and inclusive minimum or maximum price. Supply both latitude and longitude to calculate distance; also supply radius_km to limit results to that distance. Use distance sorting only with an origin, relevance to put title matches first for a query, or newest for recent listings. An empty results array means no active listings matched the filters.

Input parameters:

- `category`: Optional category slug, such as vehicles or real_estate.
- `latitude`: Latitude of the search origin; provide together with longitude.
- `longitude`: Longitude of the search origin; provide together with latitude.
- `max_price`: Optional inclusive maximum price; use the listing currency.
- `min_price`: Optional inclusive minimum price; use the listing currency.
- `query`: Optional words to match in title or description.
- `radius_km`: Optional maximum distance in kilometers; requires latitude and longitude.
- `sort` (string): Result ordering: relevance, distance (requires origin), or newest.

Output parameters:

- `count` (integer)
- `results` (array)

### `get_listing` (~83 tokens)

Get listing

Use this when the user wants more details about a listing returned by a search. Retrieves one listing by its UUID. Active listings are visible to everyone. Draft, sold, closed, or expired listings are returned only to their owner when the local development identity is configured; otherwise they are reported as not found.

Input parameters:

- `listing_id` (string, required): UUID of the listing to retrieve.

Output parameters:

- `address`
- `category` (string)
- `created_at` (string)
- `currency` (string)
- `description`
- `distance_km`
- `id` (string)
- `latitude`
- `longitude`
- `price`
- `status` (string)
- `title` (string)

### `search_nearby` (~192 tokens)

Search nearby listings

Use this when the user asks what is available, sold or happening near a place or near them (e.g. 'מה מוכרים לידי', 'מה קורה לידי', 'איש מקצוע באזור'). If their location is unknown, ask for a city or area first instead of guessing. Finds active listings near a geographic point using PostGIS distance search. Latitude and longitude are separate decimal-degree values; radius_km is required and measured in kilometers. You may narrow by category. Distance ordering is the default. An empty results array means nothing active matched within the radius.

Input parameters:

- `category`: Optional category slug.
- `latitude` (number, required): Search origin latitude in decimal degrees.
- `longitude` (number, required): Search origin longitude in decimal degrees.
- `radius_km` (number, required): Maximum distance from the origin, in kilometers.
- `sort` (string): Result ordering; distance requires the supplied origin.

Output parameters:

- `count` (integer)
- `results` (array)

### `list_categories` (~74 tokens)

List categories

Use this to map what the user wants (e.g. car, apartment, plumber, job, dog, event) to a category slug before searching. Returns the category slugs and display names accepted by listing creation and search. Use a returned slug as the category parameter. An empty categories array means no categories are currently configured.

Output parameters:

- `categories` (array)
- `count` (integer)

### `community_board_help` (~73 tokens)

Community Board help

Use this when the user just says 'Community Board' or 'community-board', asks what this app can do, or asks for help or examples ('מה אפשר לעשות כאן?', 'עזרה'). Returns a summary, supported capabilities, the live category list, example requests in Hebrew and English, current limitations and search tips.

Output parameters:

- `capabilities` (array)
- `categories` (array)
- `examples` (array)
- `limitations` (array)
- `summary` (string)
- `tips` (array)
