## 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 2026-10-23.

- **Endpoint Security**: 80/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - 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**: 71/100
  - 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1068 tokens (~356/item across 3 items; 2 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 3/100
  - Stability observed for 1 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.
  - Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 2 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 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.
  - Supports UI / widget rendering.

### `calculate_typing_score` (~525 tokens)

Calculate typing score

Use this when a typing test has finished, or when the user gives the target passage, what they typed, and the time taken and wants their typing speed. Compares word by word and computes exact WPM = (correct characters / 5) / minutes, raw WPM (all typed characters), accuracy = correct / (correct + errors), errors (incorrect + extra + skipped letters), consistency and per-second speed (when samples are given), and the weakest keys. Returns a shareable result card (SVG) and a challenge link. Does not run a test or time anything itself; seconds must be between 1 and 3600. Do not use for reading speed or word counts.

Input parameters:

- `custom_text` (string): Sent by the widget for custom-text tests: the full custom text from show_typing_test, e.g. 'The early bird catches the worm.', so the challenge link reproduces the whole passage. Omit otherwise.
- `difficulty` (string): Difficulty from show_typing_test, e.g. words.
- `duration_seconds` (integer): Timed-test length from show_typing_test, e.g. 60.
- `focus_keys` (string): Drill keys from show_typing_test, e.g. 'eth'.
- `missed_keys` (string): Optional, sent by the widget: one character per mistyped keystroke, giving the key that was expected (including mistakes later corrected), e.g. 'eet'. Used to find weak keys.
- `mode` (string): Settings of the test from show_typing_test, used to label the result and build a challenge link. Example: timed.
- `samples` (array): Optional, sent by the widget: cumulative count of characters entered at the end of each whole second, e.g. [5, 11, 16]. Used for per-second speed and consistency.
- `seconds` (number, required): Elapsed typing time in seconds, from the first keystroke to the end (the full duration for a timed test), e.g. 60. Must be between 1 and 3600.
- `seed` (integer): Seed from show_typing_test, e.g. 4821, so a challenge link reproduces the same passage.
- `target_text` (string, required): The passage the user was asked to type, exactly as shown, e.g. 'the quick brown fox'.
- `typed_text` (string, required): Exactly what the user typed, including mistakes, e.g. 'the quikc brown fox'. May be empty.

Output parameters:

- `accuracy` (number)
- `completed` (boolean)
- `consistency` (number|null)
- `correct_chars` (number)
- `downloads` (object)
- `errors` (number)
- `extra_chars` (number)
- `incorrect_chars` (number)
- `kind` (string)
- `label` (string)
- `missed_chars` (number)
- `per_second_wpm` (array)
- `raw_wpm` (number)
- `seconds` (number)
- `settings` (object)
- `summary` (string)
- `target_chars` (number)
- `typed_chars` (number)
- `untyped_chars` (number)
- `weak_keys` (array)
- `wpm` (number)

### `show_typing_test` (~456 tokens)

Show typing test

Use this when the user wants to take a typing test, check their typing speed (WPM), practice typing, test on their own paragraph, or drill weak keys. Opens a live test in the widget: the timer starts on the first keystroke, characters are highlighted as typed, and the widget scores the result with calculate_typing_score. Returns the passage settings and a challenge link that opens the same test in a browser. Does not score text by itself and does not save results between conversations. Do not use for counting words in a document or for typing tutorials without a test.

Input parameters:

- `custom_text` (string): Text the user wants to be tested on, pasted verbatim, e.g. 'The early bird catches the worm.' Curly quotes and dashes become keyboard characters; whitespace is collapsed (line breaks are kept when di…
- `difficulty` (string): Passage style: words (common English words, no punctuation), sentences (prose with capitals and punctuation), numbers (words mixed with numbers, times and dates), code (short code snippets with line…
- `duration_seconds` (integer): Length of a timed test in seconds, 10-600. Common choices are 15, 30, 60, 120; job tests often use 60, 180 or 300. Default 60. Example: 60.
- `focus_keys` (string): Practice drill: the keys to train, e.g. 'eth' or 'q;7' (a list like 'q, z and x' also works). Builds a drill passage from words that use these keys. Usually the weak_keys from a previous result.
- `mode` (string): timed (type until the clock runs out) or passage (type one full passage; time stops at the last character). Defaults to timed, or passage when custom_text is given. Example: timed.
- `seed` (integer): Optional number that picks the passage; the same seed and settings give the same passage (for retakes and fair challenges). Example: 4821.

Output parameters:

- `char_count` (number)
- `custom` (boolean)
- `difficulty` (string)
- `difficulty_label` (string)
- `downloads` (object)
- `duration_seconds` (number)
- `focus_keys` (string|null)
- `kind` (string)
- `mode` (string)
- `seed` (number)
- `text` (string|null)
- `text_preview` (string)
- `title` (string)
- `word_count` (number)

## Common questions

### What is the Zovo Typing Test MCP server?

Zovo Typing Test is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.theluckystrike/typing-test. Take a typing speed test without leaving the chat. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://typing-test.zovo.one/mcp).

### Is the Zovo Typing Test MCP server safe to use?

Zovo Typing Test scores 73 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 Zovo Typing Test MCP server expose?

Zovo Typing Test exposes 2 tools: calculate_typing_score, show_typing_test. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 981 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Zovo Typing Test MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Zovo Typing Test without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the Zovo Typing Test MCP server still maintained?

Zovo Typing Test is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 23 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
