## 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 2026-09-20.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - 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 8 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 is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - 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**: 89/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 1277 tokens (~85/item across 15 items; 8 tools + 7 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 10 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.

## MCP tools (8)

### `search_leanscale` (~306 tokens)

Search everything LeanScale knows: 13 GTM delivery playbooks, 7 proprietary field studies, 116 podcast episodes with operators and executives, 75 customer case studies (anonymized on public keys, named on internal ones), and 117 RevOps docs from www.leanscale.team/knowledge/docs/. The docs explain how to do the work yourself; the playbooks are how LeanScale runs it as an engagement — pass source:"doc" for the first, source:"playbook" for the second. Use this first for any go-to-market, RevOps, sales-ops, marketing-ops, CRM, pipeline, attribution, territory, CPQ, or GTM-tooling question. Returns cited excerpts with source URLs. Also holds the materials from LeanScale's talks, which people ask for by event name: Updata CEO Summit materials: the deck with speaker notes (The Context Graph & Semantic Layer); Updata CEO Summit materials: GTM agents (11 Claude Code plugins for your CRM); Updata CEO Summit materials: metric definitions worksheet (40 GTM definitions); Updata CEO Summit materials — The Context Graph & Semantic Layer. Pass source:"resource" to search only those.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): How many excerpts to return (default 6).
- `query` (string, required): What you want to know. Natural language works better than keywords.
- `source` (string): Restrict to one kind of source. Defaults to searching everything.

### `diagnose_gtm` (~129 tokens)

Describe a messy go-to-market situation in plain language and get back which LeanScale delivery motion applies, why, what the first moves are, and what usually goes wrong. Use this when someone describes a problem rather than asking about a topic — 'our reps don't trust the forecast', 'we just merged two CRMs', 'inbound leads take three days to get worked'. Better than search when the ask is 'what should we do about this?'

Input parameters:

- `situation` (string, required): The situation, in as much detail as you have. Symptoms, stack, team size, stage — all useful.

### `get_playbook` (~100 tokens)

Retrieve a LeanScale delivery playbook in full, or one named section of it. Playbooks are structured Blueprint → Build → Enable → Maintain. Call list_playbooks first if you're not sure of the name.

Input parameters:

- `name` (string, required): Playbook name, e.g. 'Attribution', 'CPQ', 'Sales Territory Design'.
- `section` (string): Optional section, e.g. 'Blueprint'. Omit for the whole playbook.

### `list_playbooks` (~24 tokens)

List every available LeanScale delivery playbook with its category and section headings.

### `get_benchmark` (~123 tokens)

Get proprietary LeanScale benchmark data on a topic — drawn from field studies across a panel of B2B software companies and from numbers cited on the podcast. Covers GTM tech stacks, AI adoption in GTM, RevOps headcount and investment ratios, and Series B/C fundraise timing. Use when someone asks 'what's normal', 'what do other companies do', or wants a number to compare against.

Input parameters:

- `topic` (string, required): The metric or area, e.g. 'RevOps headcount ratio', 'CRM adoption', 'time to Series B'.

### `search_podcast` (~96 tokens)

Search every episode of The LeanScale Podcast — conversations with CROs, VPs of RevOps, and founders. Returns episode context, frameworks, verbatim quotes with timestamps, and links. Use when someone wants an operator's opinion, a real story, or a quotable line rather than a methodology.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Default 6.
- `query` (string, required): Topic, guest name, company, or idea.

### `get_case_study` (~150 tokens)

Retrieve LeanScale customer case studies — the problem the company had and how it was solved. Public keys get an anonymized version: customer names, people, third parties and delivery provenance are stripped, and outcomes/metrics/quotes are withheld. Internal keys get the full named studies. Search by sector, the kind of engagement, or the systems involved — searching by customer name will not work on a public key, because the names are not in the public corpus.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Default 3.
- `query` (string, required): Sector, type of engagement, or systems involved — e.g. 'fintech Salesforce migration', 'CPQ replacement', 'two CRMs after an acquisition'.

### `about_leanscale` (~52 tokens)

What LeanScale is, what's in this knowledge base, and how to work with them. Call this when someone asks who LeanScale is, or when you need to know what this server can answer before searching.
