## 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 2026-08-09.

- **Endpoint Security**: 46/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 7 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS not yet verified: we couldn't determine whether a plaintext access path exists.
  - 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**: 71/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 469 tokens (~67/item across 7 items; 7 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 10/100
  - Stability observed for 3 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 76/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 27% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-08-09 (score 57, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 7 to 10. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 2 days of observed history at the previous scan, 3 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

### 2026-08-07 (score 56, +1)

- [functional improvement] Stability: unverified → 0.03

### 2026-08-06 (score 55)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (7)

### `search` (~41 tokens)

Full-text search across Falcon's frontier design reference: terms, technologies, file formats, sensors, companies, tools, standards.

Input parameters:

- `query` (string, required): Search query

### `get_definition` (~52 tokens)

Get the definition and reference copy for a dictionary term, technology, sensor, or file format by slug (use `search` to find slugs).

Input parameters:

- `family` (string, required)
- `slug` (string, required)

### `get_company` (~40 tokens)

Profile of a frontier company: what they build, why it matters for frontier design, competitors and technologies from the knowledge graph.

Input parameters:

- `slug` (string, required)

### `list_design_jobs` (~65 tokens)

Latest design/UX/HMI roles at frontier companies (defense, robotics, space, industrial, health), refreshed from company job boards.

Input parameters:

- `industry` (string): Industry slug (e.g. defense, robotics) — omit for all
- `limit` (number)

### `identify_format` (~100 tokens)

Identify a file format from an extension, filename, or slug (e.g. 'step', 'scan.mcap', 'gltf') and get how to open or convert it: what it stores, its extensions/MIME/spec, whether a free in-browser viewer exists, and available client-side conversions. Use for 'what is this file' / 'how do I open X'.

Input parameters:

- `file` (string, required): An extension, filename, or format slug

### `compare_formats` (~64 tokens)

Compare two file formats (by slug, extension, or filename) — extensions, category, and a verdict on when to choose each. Use for 'X vs Y' / 'difference between X and Y'.

Input parameters:

- `a` (string, required)
- `b` (string, required)

### `convert_file` (~77 tokens)

Find the in-browser converter (if any) that turns one format into another, e.g. from='fbx' to='glb'. Returns the tool URL and notes, all client-side (files never upload). Use for 'how do I convert X to Y'.

Input parameters:

- `from` (string, required)
- `to` (string, required)
