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 → Why this is hard to 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 66 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 Usability65
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 6381 tokens (~96/item across 66 items; 66 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage71
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 0% of tool parameters carry a description.Fail
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety75
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "unsave_place" implies "remove" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
- An AI judge read all 66 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the Namaste America MCP server?
Namaste America is a hosted endpoint at https://namasteamerica.us/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

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. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

submit_correction ~208
Propose a correction to a listing field (agents/users reporting bad data). `vertical` is the category key (default 'restaurants'); `listing_id` is the id from that category's get_/search_ tools. Correctable restaurant fields: phone, email, website, menu_url, address_full, city, state, region_tag, price_range, cuisine_type, festival_specials. The correction is stored and applied by the Feedback agent — automatically for unclaimed listings, or routed to a human for claimed/featured ones. Identity fields (name, coordinates) are not correctable. Structured field corrections currently apply to restaurants; for other categories use submit_review to flag issues (or the owner portal). Returns {ok, feedback_id|error}.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |

submit_listing ~194
Submit a new Indian-American business/listing for REVIEW — it does NOT go live automatically. `vertical` is the category key (restaurants, temples, groceries, professionals, salons, apparel, sweets, studios, services, community, legal, education, realestate, finance — not events, which are agent-managed). The submission enters a human moderation queue and is published only after an admin approves it. `name` is required; provide as much else as you can. Returns {'ok', 'id'} or {'ok': False, 'error': 'bad_vertical'|'name_required'}.

| website | string | – | – |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
submit_review ~156
Submit a community review (1-5 star rating + optional text) for a listing. `vertical` is the category key (restaurants, temples, groceries, professionals, salons, apparel, sweets, studios, services, community, legal, education, realestate, finance) and `listing_id` is the id returned by that category's get_/search_ tools. Reviews are moderated: clean ones publish immediately and spam/abusive ones are held for human review. Returns {'ok', 'id', 'status'}.
