## 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 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - 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.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - 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**: 70/100
  - 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 3725 tokens (~532/item across 7 items; 6 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 57/100
  - Stability observed for 17 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.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - All 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.
  - An AI judge read all 8 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 (6)

### `get_board_format` (~34 tokens)

Board format

Returns the Notematics text format with a complete example. Read it before writing a board, unless you already have it.

### `check_board` (~185 tokens)

Check a board

Checks a board text without publishing it. Returns what the board understood, page by page, and every problem with its line and how to fix it. Fix every ERROR, then call check_board again. When there are no errors, call publish_board.

Input parameters:

- `text` (string, required): The whole board in the Notematics format: # title, :::companion, :::font and :::show lines under it, ## pages, Markdown with $...$ formulas and [words]{red highlight} spans, :::graph, :::geometry, ::…

### `publish_board` (~380 tokens)

Publish a board

Publishes a board and returns a link that opens it in the user's browser. Call check_board first. A board with errors is not published: the problems come back instead. With narration_language, the :::say blocks are voiced, so that the presentation plays with a voice. Give the link to the user exactly as returned.

Input parameters:

- `autoplay` (boolean): true: the link opens the board straight in the presentation player, which plays it step by step (for a presentation, an explainer, a video lesson). Leave it out for a board to look at and work on.
- `narration_language` (string): The language of the :::say blocks, to voice them with the site's voice of that language. Leave it out for a board without narration, or to leave the voicing to the teacher.
- `narration_speed` (number): How fast the voice speaks: 1 is normal, 0.85 or 0.75 slower (for younger students), 1.1 or 1.25 faster.
- `narration_voice` (string): A voice id from get_voices for that language (a man's or a woman's voice, for example). Leave it out for the site's default voice of the language.
- `text` (string, required): The whole board in the Notematics format: # title, :::companion, :::font and :::show lines under it, ## pages, Markdown with $...$ formulas and [words]{red highlight} spans, :::graph, :::geometry, ::…

### `get_voices` (~72 tokens)

Voices for narration

Lists the voices this Notematics site can voice narration with now, language by language: each voice's id, name and whether it is a man's or a woman's, and the default voice of the language. A language that is not listed cannot be voiced now. Give a voice to publish_board as narration_voice.

### `read_board` (~176 tokens)

Read a board

Reads the board behind a Notematics link the user gave you and returns it as board text, in the same format you write. Ink, images, widgets and the audio of narration cannot be written as text and are listed as left out (narration text is kept, as :::say; the wire man or girl as :::companion and the moods as :::mood; how steps appear as :::show; the marks drawn over what is written as :::strike, :::circle… lines; the look of words as spans). For a live link it also says which page the teacher is on.

Input parameters:

- `link` (string, required): The Notematics link the user gave you, exactly as given: .../live/<id> (the board open now) or .../s/<id>#<key> (a shared copy).

### `add_to_board` (~296 tokens)

Add to the open board

Adds board text to the board the teacher has open, behind a live link (.../live/<id>). place "current_page": put it under what is on the page the teacher is on (write ONE page: the next step, a hint, a drawing). place "new_pages": add your pages after the last page (exercises, answers, a new topic). Call check_board first: a text with errors is not added. Nothing on the board is changed or removed; the teacher can undo the addition.

Input parameters:

- `link` (string, required): The live link the user gave you: .../live/<id>.
- `place` (string, required): "current_page" (under what is on the teacher's page; one page of text) or "new_pages" (after the last page).
- `text` (string, required): The whole board in the Notematics format: # title, :::companion, :::font and :::show lines under it, ## pages, Markdown with $...$ formulas and [words]{red highlight} spans, :::graph, :::geometry, ::…

## Common questions

### What is the Math Board MCP server?

Math Board is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as tools.datapad/math-board. Maths lessons on an online whiteboard: solutions, worksheets, graphs and geometry, opened by a link. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mathboard.datapad.tools/api/mcp).

### Is the Math Board MCP server safe to use?

Math Board scores 78 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 Math Board MCP server expose?

Math Board exposes 6 tools: get_board_format, check_board, publish_board, get_voices, read_board, add_to_board. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,143 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Math Board MCP server require authentication?

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

### Is the Math Board MCP server still maintained?

Math Board is marked deprecated in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
