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 Usability80
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 726 tokens (~103/item across 7 items; 7 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management80
- Stability observed for 24 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage98
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 93% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 8 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities60
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
How do I install the BidSurvivor MCP server?
BidSurvivor is a hosted endpoint at https://bidsurvivor.space/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.

claim_free_slot Claim a free slot for a product ~225
Put a product on the board in a slot nobody holds. Costs nothing: an empty slot has no standing bid to beat, so any amount takes it, zero included. No account and no card. The name, logo and description are read from the site automatically. One free claim per registrable domain per day, and only for today or tomorrow — booking further ahead is for bidders on the site. If somebody outbids it later the slot is lost, but nothing was paid, so nothing is lost with it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| category | string | – | What the product is. |
| dayKey | string | – | UTC day, "YYYY-MM-DD". Today by default; at most 1 day(s) ahead. |
| name | string | – | Overrides the name read from the site. |
| slotIndex | integer | yes | Which slot, 0 to 1. Call get_board first to find a free one. |
| tagline | string | – | One line shown under the name. |
| url | string | yes | The product's website, e.g. https://acme.com |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_board Get the current board ~57
The live advertising board: 2 slots a day of 12 hours each, showing which are held, by whom, for how much, and which are free. A slot with isFree true can be claimed for nothing with claim_free_slot.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_brand_stats Get what the board sent a brand ~58
The published numbers for one brand: slots held, card opens, and click-throughs to its own site. These are the same figures anyone can read on the site.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| brandId | string | yes | From get_board or claim_free_slot. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_slot_price Get the price of one slot ~73
What it costs to take a specific slot right now: zero if nobody holds it, otherwise the amount a bid has to beat.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| dayKey | string | – | UTC day, "YYYY-MM-DD". Defaults to today. |
| slotIndex | integer | yes | Which slot of the day, 0 to 1. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_stats Get the board's public traffic numbers ~44
How much attention the board actually sends: visitors, page views, and click-throughs to brands. Published rather than claimed — this is a small board and the numbers say so.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_brands List the brands that have been on the board ~109
Every brand that has held or contested a twelve-hour advertising slot, newest attention first, optionally filtered to one category. Each row carries what the placement delivered — card opens and click-throughs — and whether the brand bid for the slot or was placed on a free one by us. Use this to find a brandId for get_brand_stats.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| category | string | – | Optional category id, e.g. devtools. Omit for all. |
| limit | number | – | Defaults to 50. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_winners List the Hall of Survivors ~83
Brands that held a slot when it closed — plus whoever is leading the live slot right now — ranked by what they paid, over the last 7 days, 30 days or a year. Optionally filtered to one category.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| category | string | – | – |
| limit | integer | – | Defaults to 20. |
| period | string | – | Defaults to week. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
