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 Security89
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability81
  • 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1713 tokens (~155/item across 11 items; 9 tools + 2 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management37
  • Stability observed for 11 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety75
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "trip_delete" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
  • An AI judge read all 10 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem MCP server?

io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/per-diem, 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.

MCP tools · 9 exposed · ~1,639 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
license_activate ~76

Turn Pro on for this connection with key, an MCPL1.<payload>.<signature> issued at checkout for this server or the bundle. Data under your token stays; a wrong or expired key changes nothing. license_status confirms it.

NameTypeReqDescription
keystringyesLicense key from checkout, MCPL1.<payload>.<signature>

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

license_status ~55

Report this endpoint's licence state for your token as JSON: the product, the tier free or pro, why it is not Pro, and the checkout URL. Call it to explain a free-tier refusal. No arguments, nothing changes.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

perdiem_calc ~397

Calculate the daily travel allowance for one trip: the amount per day and the total in the scheme's currency, with the partial-day fraction and the meal deductions the scheme's own rule applies. Free and unlimited.

NameTypeReqDescription

late_eveningarrayUK only, per day: the journey was ongoing at 8pm and a meal was bought after it, which adds the 10.00 GBP supplement
lodging_nightsintegerNights of accommodation. What this pays depends on the scheme and the answer says so
meals_providedarrayPer day, in order: the free meals the traveller was given that day, e.g. [["breakfast"],["breakfast","lunch"]]. Each one reduces that day's allowance by the scheme's own percentage or amount
meals_provided_dailyThe same free meals on every day. Ignored for any day that meals_provided already names
schemestringyes"pl" Polish delegation regulation, "uk" HMRC benchmark scale rates, "us" GSA CONUS standard
startstringyesWhen the trip began, ISO 8601 WITH a zone: "2026-03-28T22:00:00+01:00", or "2026-03-28T22:00" together with timezone
timezonestringIANA id such as "Europe/Warsaw". Required when start or end carries no offset; also the zone the US scheme counts calendar days in

List a scheme's bundled daily allowance rates with the authority, instrument, source URL and effective date they came from. Filter by country or city. Free and unlimited.

NameTypeReqDescription
citystringCity or locality name, for the schemes that publish per-city rates
countrystringCountry name or ISO code, e.g. Germany or DE. Matched exactly first, then as a substring
schemestring"pl" Polish delegation regulation, "uk" HMRC benchmark scale rates, "us" GSA CONUS standard. Omit for every scheme

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

perdiem_report ~101

Total saved trips per scheme and calendar month, bucketed by start date: trips, days, subsistence and lodging, each in the scheme's own currency, with the trip ids behind every figure. Pro.

NameTypeReqDescription
fromstringYYYY-MM, earliest month by start date
schemestringDefault "all"
tostringYYYY-MM, latest month by start date
travellerstringOnly this traveller

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

trip_delete ~93

Delete one saved trip and free the free-tier slot it held that month. A trip that has been exported or has an expense booked against it is refused with the blocker named, and nothing is written. Free and unlimited.

NameTypeReqDescription
tripstringyesTrip id such as TRIP-2026-0001, or an exact or partial trip name. A partial name matching more than one trip is refused with the list

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

trip_export ~183

Return the exact expense_add arguments for a saved trip: one payload for subsistence and, with split_lodging, one for lodging. It writes nothing in the expense-tracker server; only mark_exported changes this trip. Pro.

NameTypeReqDescription
billablebooleanRebillable to the client. Default: true when the trip has a project, false otherwise
categorystringExpense category to put on the payload. Default "travel"
mark_exportedbooleanStamp exported_at on the trip so a later export can see it already went out. Default false
split_lodgingbooleanReturn lodging as its own expense rather than folded into the subsistence total. Default true
tripstringyesTrip id such as TRIP-2026-0001, or an exact or partial trip name

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

trip_list ~124

List saved trips with the scheme, destination, dates and total on each, and a total per currency. Filter by scheme, destination, traveller, project and start date range. Free and unlimited.

schemestringDefault "all"
tostringYYYY-MM-DD, latest start date
travellerstringOnly trips by this traveller

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

trip_record ~482

Calculate a trip and save it under a name, traveller taken from the shared business profile; returns the TRIP-YYYY-NNNN id. An identical record is refused and named, spending no slot. Free: 5 trips a calendar month.

Common questions

What is the io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem MCP server?

io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem. Daily travel allowances from bundled public rate tables: Poland, HMRC and GSA CONUS. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/per-diem).

Is the io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem MCP server safe to use?

io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem scores 82 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem MCP server expose?

io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem exposes 9 tools: perdiem_rates, perdiem_calc, trip_record, trip_list, trip_delete, and 4 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,639 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem MCP server require authentication?

Yes. io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem MCP server still maintained?

io.github.theluckystrike/per-diem is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
