## Quality 79/100 (good)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-06-18; 2026-07-28 not supported, older versions are deprecated until 2027-07-28
- n/a `protocol.stateless`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- n/a `protocol.list_ttl`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers

### authorization: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `auth.prm`, `auth.as_metadata`, `auth.cimd`: no remote uses OAuth
- n/a `auth.secret_in_url`: no templated URL

### tool hygiene: 71 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- pass `tools.description_length`: descriptions are concise
- pass `tools.schemas`: every tool has an object input schema
- fail `tools.annotations`: no tool declares readOnlyHint or destructiveHint, so clients cannot tell safe calls from risky ones
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: search_farms (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_farm (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); price_stats (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 2,277 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 100 (weight 15)

- pass `stability.changes`: 1 tool changes in 30 days
- pass `stability.rug_pull`: no tool changed its meaning under the same name

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: no npm or PyPI package

- tools: 15, about 2,277 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 35c3206b826518769632b2dce75586ad

- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/ca.findmyfarmer/farms.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/ca.findmyfarmer/farms)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-09-27 `price_stats` changed (description)
  - before: Aggregate price statistics (low / median / mean / high, farm + observation counts, as-of dates) for a good, nationally or in one province, from Find My Farmer's price ledger. Every bucket covers at least 3 farms and no price is attributed to a farm — this is the public, unattributable side of the FARM-VOICE price rule.
  - after: Aggregate price statistics (low / median / mean / high, farm + observation counts, as-of dates) for a good, nationally or in one province, from Find My Farmer's price ledger. Every bucket covers at least 3 farms and names none; a single farm's own prices, each dated and cited, come from get_farm.

## Tools (15)

- `best_for`: The best varieties of a species for a use — "best apple varieties for baking" — ranked from the Farmdex's documented tasting notes and trait spectra (1–5, relative to the species' reference variety). Pass species + use for the ranked answer; species alone lists the uses it can answer; use alone lists the species with an answer. A guide exists only once at least 3 documented varieties carry the use.
- `compare`: Two Farmdex varieties head to head — "Honeycrisp vs Gala": documented tasting prose, uses, and (same species) 1–5 trait values on shared axes relative to the species' reference variety. Both variants must clear a completeness bar (description + >= 2 documented sensory/use fields). Machine-only — there is deliberately no compare page family; cite the two variety URLs returned.
- `define_term`: Find My Farmer's definition of a farming practice (rotational grazing, grass-finished, no-till…): the meaning, the nuance, the questions to ask a farmer, FAQs, and how many farms claim it. Returns the term's stable IRI.
- `find_near`: Farms AND coordination points (farmers' markets, off-farm pickup points, stockists) within a radius of a point or a named place, ordered by distance, optionally filtered by what is sold (species ids or a good slug), a farming practice, a service category, or an event type. Points carry their schedule and the farms present. Distances are straight-line from each farm's PUBLIC map point, or pass distance="road" for cached driving distance + minutes (cold pairs are filled once per call, capped). This is the "where can I get X near here — and where on Saturday" primitive.
- `get_farm`: Fetch one farm's full public profile by its URL slug (the last path segment of a findmyfarmer.ca/farms/... URL, also returned by search_farms). Includes the farm story, contact channels the farmer chose to publish, and how to buy from them. Volume-capped: 50 profiles per caller per UTC day — this registry serves reference use and does not offer bulk datasets.
- `get_place_catalogue`: Everything available near a place — every species that published farms serving the place list, in taxonomy shape (category → subcategory → species) with local farm counts — plus the place's Wikidata / GeoNames ids.
- `get_species`: One Farmdex species: names, taxonomy, description, its GBIF / Wikidata / ITIS identifiers, and its varieties or breeds. Resolve a food name to a species id first with search_farmdex.
- `list_filters`: The controlled vocabularies find_near accepts: farming practice ids, service category slugs, event type slugs.
- `list_goods`: The goods Find My Farmer publishes reports and price statistics for — the slugs price_stats and find_near accept, each with the species and practices that define it.
- `list_hubs`: List Find My Farmer hubs — the named local-food regions (foodsheds) farms dock into. Useful for narrowing a farm search to a place.
- `list_places`: The place graph: countries and provinces/states (no args), one country's provinces (country), or one province's metros (province). Each place carries its slug, centroid, reach, and Wikidata / GeoNames identifiers.
- `price_stats`: Aggregate price statistics (low / median / mean / high, farm + observation counts, as-of dates) for a good, nationally or in one province, from Find My Farmer's price ledger. Every bucket covers at least 3 farms and names none; a single farm's own prices, each dated and cited, come from get_farm.
- `search_farmdex`: Search the Farmdex — Find My Farmer's agricultural knowledge database of categories, species, and variants (e.g. heritage vegetable varieties, livestock breeds). Useful for resolving what a food product actually is before searching for farms that sell it.
- `search_farms`: Search the Find My Farmer registry of local farms in Canada. Returns farm name, location (city/province), type, and the canonical findmyfarmer.ca page URL. Search matches farm names, stories, and what each farm sells (goods, packages, events).
- `whats_in_season`: Species in their harvest window in a Canadian province for a given month (default: this month), with how many local published farms list each. Window-based (is the month inside start..end), not peak-based.
