Trust breakdown (6 categories)

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 →

Endpoint Security60

The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 14 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass

Transport & Reachability100

Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass

Schema Quality & AI Usability64

AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
Tool/resource definitions use about 1135 tokens (~81/item across 14 items; 14 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail

Stability & Change Management27

Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial

Tool Coverage85

100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
55% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial

Capabilities20

Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2024-11-05; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail

Tool Tokens

acknowledge_commitment ~82

Acknowledge a commitment as the founder or the investor. When both sides have acknowledged, status auto-promotes from soft_circled/term_sheet to 'committed' and the amount is added to the project's public round progress. Calling twice from the same side is a no-op. (requires API key)

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
commitment_id	string	yes	Commitment UUID.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_project ~31

Get the full project listing by slug, including the founder's GitHub handle.

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
slug	string	yes	—

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_commitments ~77

List commitments where you're either the investor or the founder. Filter by project slug, your role, or status. (requires API key)

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
limit	number	—	—
role	string	—	Only commits where you're acting in this role.
slug	string	—	Filter to a single project.
status	string	—	—

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_intros ~113

List the intro threads you're a party to (sent as an investor or received as a founder). Each entry includes the counterparty, message count, last-message preview, and whether you have unread messages. Optionally filter by your role or unread-only. (requires API key)

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
limit	number	—	—
role	string	—	Filter to intros where you are the investor or the founder. Omit to see both.
unread_only	boolean	—	Only return threads with unread messages from the counterparty.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_projects ~39

List the newest open projects raising on Hiveround. Returns at most 25.

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
limit	number	—	—
stage	string	—	—

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_watches ~66

Return your pipeline — every project you're watching, with stage, tags, raise size, and last-updated timestamp. Optionally filter by stage or tag. (requires API key)

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
limit	number	—	—
stage	string	—	—
tag	string	—	—

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

read_intro_thread ~55

Read all messages in a specific intro thread you're a party to. Marks the thread as read for you. (requires API key)

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
intro_id	string	yes	Intro UUID, as returned by list_intros or request_intro.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

request_intro ~69

Request an intro to a project's founder on behalf of the API key's owner. The founder receives an email with the investor's GitHub handle. (requires API key)

message	string	yes	Intro message from the investor (max 2000 chars)
slug	string	yes	Project slug

No output schema declared.

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
limit	number	—	—
max_raise_usd	number	—	Maximum raise size in USD
query	string	yes	Free-text search query
stage	string	—	—

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

send_intro_message ~80

Append a message to an existing intro thread you're a party to. The other party gets an email notification linking back to the thread. Use this to follow up after request_intro or to keep a conversation moving. (requires API key)

Name	Type	Req	Description
body	string	yes	Message body (1–4000 chars).
intro_id	string	yes	Intro UUID.

submit_commitment ~207

Record an investor's intent-to-fund a project. Without terms it starts at 'soft_circled'; attach a terms object and it starts at 'term_sheet'.

Input Output Examples

Name	Type	Req	Description
amount_usd	number	yes	Commitment amount in USD (whole dollars).
instrument	string	—	—
intro_id	string	—	Optional intro UUID to link this commitment to an existing conversation.

terms	object	—	Optional structured terms, e.g. { cap: 8000000, discount: 0.20, mfn: true, valuation: 4000000, pro_rata: true }. Presence promotes initial status from soft_circled to term_sheet.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

commitment_id	string	yes	—
