## 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 2026-10-09.

- **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**: 73/100
  - 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 761 tokens (~152/item across 5 items; 4 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 27/100
  - Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 79/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 38% 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 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 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 (4)

### `search_hotels` (~351 tokens)

Search hotels

Use when the user wants hotel recommendations or wants hotels compared. Returns up to 20 hotels compared on the same criteria, each with area, nearest station, amenities and price where known; empty fields mean unknown, not bad. shortlist_url is a page you can share with the user comparing the top results side by side. Find hotels by city, name or preferences (query words also match amenities, e.g. "pool", "breakfast"). Cities in Staylist's catalogue return hotels that each have an approved partner booking link (Trip.com, Klook), with a score (Staylist AI score, or the Trip.com guest rating where there is none; see sample_estimate.score_source), star class, amenities, check-in/out times and nearby transport where collected, pros and cons, and a sample_estimate (a previously observed nightly price, not a quote for the dates). Other cities use a live provider with indicative prices for an explicit stay. Supply both dates or neither. One room, 1–8 adults and up to 6 children. Use get_booking_link for the traveler's link. Never send names, email addresses or payment details.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer)
- `checkin` (string): Calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD format; provide both dates or neither
- `checkout`: Calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD format; provide both dates or neither
- `children_ages` (array)
- `city` (string)
- `country_code` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `max_price_per_night` (number)
- `min_rating` (number)
- `query` (string)
- `stars` (array)

### `get_hotel` (~192 tokens)

Hotel details and AI overview

Hotel details: address, star class, amenities, Staylist's AI overview (a written summary with pros, cons and who the hotel suits, where one exists), how the hotel compares with others in its city, check-in/out times, child policy, nearest airport/station, and booking links. No photos: people see those on the booking page; for live-provider hotels also booking-site offers for the requested dates and guests (total, room, cancellation, conditions). refundable=null means unknown. Prices are not guaranteed. Preserve dates and occupancy from the search.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer)
- `checkin` (string): Calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD format; provide both dates or neither
- `checkout`: Calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD format; provide both dates or neither
- `children_ages` (array)
- `hotel_id` (string, required): Exact hotel id returned by search_hotels

### `get_booking_link` (~164 tokens)

Get hotel booking links

Return the approved booking links for a hotel (the same links shown to people on staylist.world) plus the Staylist hotel page. Property links open the exact hotel on Trip.com or Klook, where the traveler picks dates and room; preserve these URLs unchanged. Dated offer links, when present, are sorted by total price. The traveler completes checkout on the booking site; this tool cannot book or charge anyone.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer)
- `checkin` (string): Calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD format; provide both dates or neither
- `checkout`: Calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD format; provide both dates or neither
- `children_ages` (array)
- `hotel_id` (string, required): Exact hotel id returned by search_hotels

### `list_destinations` (~40 tokens)

Browse popular destinations

Popular starting points with country codes. Optional; this list does not restrict which destinations can be searched. No provider search quota is used with the live provider.
