## 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**: 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 4 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**: 77/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 506 tokens (~126/item across 4 items; 4 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.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (4)

### `search_regulatory_changes` (~194 tokens)

Search regulatory changes

Search regulatory publications collected from financial regulators in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and the European Union. Use for questions about what a regulator has published on a topic, or what has changed in a date range. Returns the most recent matches first.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): Restrict to a publication type.
- `jurisdiction` (string): Restrict to one jurisdiction.
- `limit` (integer): Maximum records to return.
- `query` (string): Keywords matched against title and summary, for example "liquidity" or "crypto-asset".
- `regulator` (string): Restrict to one regulator by short name, for example OSFI, SEC, FCA, ESMA.
- `since` (string): ISO 8601 date or timestamp. Only items published on or after this.
- `until` (string): ISO 8601 date or timestamp. Only items published on or before this.

### `recent_regulatory_changes` (~83 tokens)

Recent regulatory changes

List the most recent regulatory publications across all covered regulators, newest first. Use when asked what is new, what happened this week, or for a general catch up rather than a specific topic.

Input parameters:

- `days` (integer): Look back this many days.
- `jurisdiction` (string): Restrict to one jurisdiction.
- `limit` (integer): Maximum records to return.

### `get_regulatory_change` (~66 tokens)

Get a regulatory change with its revision history

Retrieve one record in full, including every revision observed since it was first seen. Use this to answer whether a document was amended after publication and what moved. The id comes from a search or recent result.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Record id from a search or recent result.

### `list_coverage` (~56 tokens)

List regulators and coverage status

List every regulator and feed being monitored, with when each was last collected successfully and how fresh the data is. Use to answer what this connector covers, or to check whether a jurisdiction is being watched before relying on an absence of results.
