## Quality 79/100 (good)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-11-25; 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: dataset_columns (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); dataset_search (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); dataset_provenance (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,113 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)

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

- tools: 10, about 1,113 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: f20abc7bd3315237b963370a1bacf5cf
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.hostingbystack/site.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.hostingbystack/site)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (10)

- `dataset_columns`: The columns, which of them are numeric, the row count and the provenance banner of the HostingByStack dataset. Call this first to learn the schema.
- `dataset_compare`: The rows of the HostingByStack dataset whose column is any of the given values, in the order given — for "X vs Y" questions.
- `dataset_provenance`: The source, the date it was computed, the licence and the citation for the HostingByStack dataset. Read this to attribute a figure correctly.
- `dataset_row`: The rows of the HostingByStack dataset where a column equals a value exactly (case-insensitive).
- `dataset_search`: Rows of the HostingByStack dataset whose cells contain the query (case-insensitive), up to 50.
- `dataset_stats`: count, min, max, mean, median and sum of a numeric column of the HostingByStack dataset (grouping commas and currency are handled; non-numeric rows are excluded and counted).
- `dataset_top`: The highest (or lowest) rows of the HostingByStack dataset by a numeric column — "which is the most/least X".
- `enquiry_describe`: Read first. States plainly what submit_enquiry does on HostingByStack: it starts an enquiry with human providers who quote directly. Nothing is bought, ordered or paid; no quote is guaranteed; it is free. Also returns who receives the details, the consent wording, and how the person confirms.
- `enquiry_fields`: Every field of the HostingByStack enquiry: key, label, type, whether required, help text and the allowed options where there are any. Pass answers to submit_enquiry keyed by field key.
- `submit_enquiry`: Submits an enquiry to HostingByStack — NOT a purchase, NOT a guaranteed quote. Step 1: call with the answers (keyed by field key from enquiry_fields) and consent=true; it validates and returns a summary, the consent line and a confirmation token — show the person the summary and the consent line. Step 2: only if the person agrees, call again with the same answers, consent=true and the confirmation token; the enquiry is then submitted, and the person receives an email with a link they must click before any provider sees it. Consent means the person has read and agreed to: "By submitting you agree HostingByStack emails you a recommendation and shares nothing else with anyone."
