## 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**: 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**: 81/100
  - 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 2351 tokens (~106/item across 22 items; 21 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 7/100
  - Stability observed for 2 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.
  - We read all 21 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 23 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.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (21)

### `search_resorts` (~353 tokens)

Search resorts

Search the Maldives accommodation catalog by name, atoll, star class, transfer mode, meal plan and experience. Results list resorts before guesthouses and are not a ranking by quality. Can also narrow to a short transfer from the airport or to stays with a 360° tour. Returns compact summaries.

Input parameters:

- `atoll` (string): Atoll name, partial match — e.g. "Baa", "South Ari".
- `experiences` (array): Properties must match ALL of these: honeymoon, family, diving, snorkeling, surfing, wellness, adults-only, all-inclusive, overwater-villas, private-pool, manta-rays, whale-sharks, water-sports, house…
- `hasVirtualTour` (boolean): True: only stays with a published 360° tour.
- `limit` (integer): Maximum results (1-60).
- `maxTransferMinutes` (integer): Only stays with a recorded airport transfer this short, in minutes. Uses the top of any range, adds up the legs of a two-part journey, and leaves out stays with no figure on record. Connection waits…
- `mealPlan` (string): Board basis — e.g. "All Inclusive", "Half Board".
- `propertyType` (string): Restrict to resorts or guesthouses.
- `query` (string): Free text: a name, island, atoll or words like honeymoon or overwater. Typo-tolerant for names.
- `starRating` (string): Official star class.
- `transferType` (string): Airport transfer mode, partial match — e.g. "seaplane", "speedboat", "domestic".

### `resolve_resort` (~100 tokens)

Resolve a resort name to its slug

Turn a loosely-written resort name into its canonical slug and a confidence score. Handles the real-world drift between how a resort is written and how it is stored — "Soneva Fushi" vs "SonevaFushi", "ONE&ONLY" vs "One & Only", missing or extra suffix words. A score below 0.6 is not a confident match.

Input parameters:

- `name` (string, required): Resort name as written by the user.

### `get_resort` (~103 tokens)

Get a resort dossier

Full record for one property: location, transfers, meal plans, room/dining counts, policies, sustainability, brand detail, a few photographs and its 360° tour when published. Optionally attaches the child catalogues (villas, dining, spa, dive, experiences) in the same call.

Input parameters:

- `include` (array): Child catalogues to attach: villas, dining, spa, dive, experiences.
- `slug` (string, required): Canonical property slug.

### `list_dining` (~47 tokens)

List dining venues

Restaurants and bars at a resort: cuisine, style, setting, dress code, signature dishes. Pricing and priced menu documents are excluded.

### `list_experiences` (~43 tokens)

List resort experiences

Activities and excursions offered at a resort: type, category, duration, what is included and any age restriction.

Input parameters:

- `slug` (string, required): Canonical property slug.

### `compare_resorts` (~54 tokens)

Compare resorts

Side-by-side comparison of 2-6 properties on a fixed attribute set (location, transfers, scale, board, tier, experience tags).

Catalog coverage

How much of the Maldives this catalog actually covers — visible property count and atoll count.

Where and in which months to see an animal in the Maldives: manta rays, whale sharks, turtles, hammerheads and others. Gives the species' season, the sites that list it with each site's stated season, a month-by-month count, and the nearest stays to each site by straight line. With a month, sites stated as out of season are left out and counted. Never promises a sighting.

Flights on the Velana (Malé) airport board

Current arrivals and departures on the board at Velana International Airport, Malé: scheduled and estimated times in Maldives time, status, terminal.

- `category` (string): Domestic flights connect to the local airports.
