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 →
Endpoint Security57
- 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 3 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 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 Usability77
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 409 tokens (~136/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 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 Management27
- Stability observed for 8 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
Capabilities40
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-03-26; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 20 to 23. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 6 days of observed history at the previous scan, 7 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

check_text Check text for writing style issues ~239
Analyze text for writing style issues: weasel words, passive voice, duplicate words, long sentences, nominalizations, hedging, filler adverbs, and research-cited AI tells. Read-only and stateless — text is analyzed in memory on the hosted server and never stored. Returns a plain-text report with each issue's line and column, the matched text, surrounding context, and the reason for AI tells; texts over 100,000 characters return an error message. This hosted server has no filesystem access — the wsc-mcp npm package adds a check_file tool for local files. It only reports issues — to auto-remove duplicate words, follow up with fix_duplicates.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| config | object | — | Optional config to enable/disable detectors or add/remove word-list entries; same schema as .wscrc.json (https://wsc.theserverless.dev/schema.json) |
| format | string | — | Set to "markdown" to mask code blocks, inline code, tables, and headings so they are not linted as prose; default "plain" lints everything |
| text | string | yes | The text to analyze for writing style issues |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
fix_duplicates Remove duplicate adjacent words ~93
Remove duplicate adjacent words (case-insensitive, including across line breaks) and return the cleaned text plus the list of words that were removed. Read-only with no side effects: the fix is returned in the response, nothing is written anywhere. Use after check_text reports duplicate words; other issue types are report-only and have no auto-fix.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| text | string | yes | The text to clean by removing duplicate adjacent words |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_word_lists List detector word lists ~77
Return every detector word/phrase list with its entry count, config key, and sample entries, plus a link to the full browsable library. Read-only, takes no parameters, and returns the same catalog for a given release. Use it to see what the detectors match before tuning a config for check_text; not needed for ordinary checking.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
