### 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

### 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_places (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); places_near (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_kinds (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,011 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`: no tool changes in 30 days
- pass `stability.rug_pull`: no tool changed its meaning under the same name

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

## Tools (8)

- `get_place`: Fetch one place’s full record by slug (preferred, e.g. "neuschwanstein-castle") or exact name: coordinates, founding year, worldwide fame rank and tier, short description, photo URL, Wikipedia and Wikidata links, and a deep link that opens it on the map. Unsure of the slug? Call search_places first.
- `get_statistics`: Headline statistics computed live from the atlas: totals by kind, top countries, fame-tier sizes, dated-entry stats, geographic extremes and the most famous place. The source for aggregate claims like "how many castles are on Detourmap" or "which country has the most notable places".
- `list_countries`: Every country in the atlas with its place count, most first — answers "which country has the most notable places". Countries with eight or more places include a browsable index page URL.
- `list_kinds`: The layers Detourmap carries — archaeological and nature — with worldwide counts and a browsable index page for each. The atlas is cut to these kinds and holds nothing else.
- `places_near`: List notable places within a radius of a WGS84 coordinate, most famous first (rank order), each with distance_km — the direct answer to "what is worth visiting near <place>?". Radius defaults to 50 km (max 500). Geocode the location yourself, then call this with its latitude/longitude. Filter by kind to answer e.g. "waterfalls near Zurich".
- `random_place`: One random place with its full record — deliberately biased toward the little-known long tail, like the site’s own "Surprise me" button. Optionally limit by country and/or kind. Great for discovery and "place of the day" features.
- `search_places`: Search 39,832 notable places worldwide by name (accent- and case-insensitive substring match): archaeological and nature. Optionally filter by country (name or ISO code) and kind. Results come best-match-first, then by fame; each carries coordinates, fame rank/tier and links to the map and Wikipedia. If nothing matches, retry with a shorter fragment.
- `top_places`: The most famous places worldwide, in one country, or of one kind — ordered by Detourmap fame rank (derived from Wikipedia language coverage; rank 1 is the most famous). The direct answer to "most famous <kind> in <country>" and "what are the must-sees in <country>".
