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 Security94
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, advertised via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. Discovery is public, which costs nothing: no tool can be invoked without a token. View diagnostics → Pass
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- The authorisation server offers only Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591), which MCP 2026-07-28 deprecated in favour of Client ID Metadata Documents. View diagnostics → Partial
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability82
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 621 tokens (~88/item across 7 items; 6 tools + 1 resources), lean.Pass
- 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 Coverage95
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 86% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

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.
complete_profile ~70
GrantIQ complete_profile: fills in the user's matching profile field-by-field via chat. Partial-update semantics — null/missing fields leave existing values untouched. Server filters beneficiary/mission tags to canonical taxonomies. After this returns saved=true, call find_opportunities to see matches.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| input | object | yes | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
explain_opportunity ~108
GrantIQ explain_opportunity: plain-English unpack of a single grant. Returns a summary, what the grant funds, target applicant profile, hidden constraints (e.g. state aid, consortium requirements), application mechanics (stages, duration, key dates), structured eligibility essentials, and provenance citations. Cached after first call per grant; sub-50ms thereafter.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| grant_id | string | yes | The grant id (UUID) to explain. Typically returned in a prior search or find_opportunities call. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
fetch ~80
GrantIQ fetch: return the full record for a single grant by id. The id must come from a prior `search` call. Returns 'not found' when the grant is unknown OR not currently open/visible — there is no leak between those cases.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | The grant id (UUID) returned in a prior `search` result. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
find_opportunities ~71
GrantIQ find_opportunities: runs the user's profile through the AI matching engine to find the top grants. Uses the canonical StagedMatchingService. Requires a complete profile (Location, OrgType, etc.).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | — | Maximum number of results to return (1-10, default 5). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search ~120
GrantIQ search: find UK & EU grants matching a free-text query. Returns a ranked list of grant references (id, title, funder, deadline, amounts) the caller can pass to the `fetch` tool for full detail. Results are limited to currently-open, AI-enriched grants — closed, suspended and unpublishable rows are never returned.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | — | Maximum number of results to return (1-50, default 10). |
| query | string | yes | Free-text search query. Matches grant title, summary, and description. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
should_apply ~122
GrantIQ should_apply: opinionated apply / don't-apply decision for a specific grant. Returns a verdict (yes / borderline / no), confidence (0-1), specific blockers, an effort estimate with confidence band, competition-risk label (or 'unknown' when funder data is absent), and the structured evidence behind it. Requires the caller's profile to be set via a prior find_opportunities call or web sign-up.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| grant_id | string | yes | The grant id (UUID) to evaluate. Typically returned in a prior search or find_opportunities call. |
No output schema declared.
