## 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 2026-10-04.

- **Endpoint Security**: 78/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, advertised via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. Discovery is public, which costs nothing: no tool can be invoked without a token.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 401, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
  - The authorisation server offers only Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591), which MCP 2026-07-28 deprecated in favour of Client ID Metadata Documents.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 69/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1119 tokens (~223/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**: 23/100
  - Stability observed for 7 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 5 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.

### `resolve_vehicle` (~220 tokens)

Resolve Vehicle Identity

Use this when identifying a vehicle from a full VIN or from year, make, and model with optional configuration refinements. Returns MATCHED_SINGLE, NEEDS_IDENTITY, or NO_MATCH and never silently chooses among legitimate configurations.

## Common questions

### What is the AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence MCP server?

AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.simonizer69/auto411-vehicle-intelligence. Identity-first automotive intelligence for vehicle resolution, specs, safety and efficiency. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.411specs.com/mcp).

### Is the AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence MCP server safe to use?

AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence scores 75 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence MCP server expose?

AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence exposes 5 tools: resolve_vehicle, get_vehicle_specs, get_vehicle_fitment, get_vehicle_safety, get_vehicle_efficiency. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,119 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence MCP server require authentication?

Yes. AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

### Is the AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence MCP server still maintained?

AUTO411 Vehicle Intelligence is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 4 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
