## Quality 60/100 (needs work)

### 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: 64 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- warn `tools.description_length`: 1 tools have descriptions over 1,024 characters, which crowds the context
- 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: list_markets (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_competitive_profile (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_competitor_moves (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 2,850 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 25 (weight 15)

- warn `stability.changes`: 13 tool changes in 30 days
- fail `stability.rug_pull`: 2 tools kept their name but changed most of their description in 30 days; review before trusting them

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

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

- tools: 12, about 2,850 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 9e38a8523b2e9084e1c95e3bea341436
- tools last changed: 2026-10-17T10:01:20.408Z
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.industry-lens/mcp-public.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.industry-lens/mcp-public)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-17 `get_report` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Use when the user wants the full text of one published IndustryLens report (after finding its slug via list_reports). Fetch the full body of a published report by slug. Returns the report's structured fields plus content_html (the canonical body) and the report's web URL. pdf_url is a direct link to a generated PDF of the report when one exists (null for older reports or a failed generation) — the IndustryLens website itself doesn't link to it (its own download button re-renders the page via print), but the URL is real and fetchable. Never construct or guess a .pdf URL yourself when pdf_url is null — point the user at the report's web URL instead.
  - after: Use when the user wants the full text of one published IndustryLens report (after finding its slug via list_reports). Fetch the full body of a published report by slug. Returns the report's structured fields plus content_html (the canonical body) and the report's web URL. There is no standalone hosted PDF file — `pdf_url` is always null (verified live: the marketing_reports.pdf_url column is unpopulated for every published report; an earlier version of this description incorrectly claimed a real generated-PDF link existed). A PDF IS available, but gated by design: `pdf_download.url` is the report's own web page, where a 'Download PDF' button opens after the reader submits a work email (IndustryLens's deliberate lead-capture gate) and then renders the PDF client-side in the browser via print-to-PDF — there is no URL an MCP client (or anything else) can fetch directly to get the PDF bytes. Never construct or guess a .pdf URL yourself; point the user at `pdf_download.url` (same as `url`) and tell them a work email is required.
- 2026-10-07 `get_market_landscape` changed (description)
  - before: Given a market (a vertical slug or name), return the published category overview plus every player IndustryLens tracks in that market — the whole-CATEGORY map, not a self-selected competitor set. Returns the hub (title, abstract, tldr, hero_stats, url), the deduped list of players (name, domain, business_model), and `market_news` — the latest weekly market summary (narrative, top topics, new entrants, topic momentum, source URLs). Returns { covered: false } for markets IndustryLens doesn't publicly track. Use list_markets to discover slugs.
  - after: Use when the user wants an overview of a whole market/category — every player in it, not just a self-selected competitor set. Given a market (a vertical slug or name), returns the published category overview plus every player IndustryLens tracks in that market — the whole-CATEGORY map, not a self-selected competitor set. Returns the hub (title, abstract, tldr, hero_stats, url), the deduped list of players (name, domain, business_model), and `market_news` — the latest weekly market summary (narrative, top topics, new entrants, topic momentum, source URLs). Returns { covered: false } for markets IndustryLens doesn't publicly track. Use list_markets to discover slugs.
- 2026-10-07 `list_markets` changed (description)
  - before: List the B2B SaaS markets (categories) IndustryLens monitors. Each item has a `slug` usable with get_market_landscape for the full category map. Ordered by name.
  - after: Use when the user wants to know which B2B SaaS markets/categories IndustryLens tracks, or needs a slug for get_market_landscape. Returns the list of markets, ordered by name. Each item has a `slug` usable with get_market_landscape for the full category map.
- 2026-10-07 `get_pricing_changes` changed (description, inputSchema)
  - before: Structured pricing/packaging changes IndustryLens has detected — each with a change_type, severity, materiality score, a plain-language summary, and the real detection date. Pass a `competitor` (name or domain) to scope to one company, or omit it for a recent pricing feed. The feed spans the markets IndustryLens publicly tracks. No other public source exposes structured competitor pricing-diffs like this.
  - after: Use when the user asks about a competitor's pricing/packaging changes, or wants a recent pricing-change feed. Returns structured pricing/packaging changes IndustryLens has detected — each with a change_type, severity, materiality score, a plain-language summary, and the real detection date. Pass a `competitor` (name or domain) to scope to one company, or omit it for a recent pricing feed. Pass `competitors` (up to 10 names/domains) instead to get a feed per company in one call, each in input order. The feed spans the markets IndustryLens publicly tracks. No other public source exposes structured competitor pricing-diffs like this.
- 2026-10-07 `get_competitor_moves_diff` changed (description, inputSchema)
  - before: The dated CHANGE-FEED for one competitor: every real was→now strategic shift IndustryLens detected, newest-first, each stamped with its real analysis date (never a fabricated date). Use when the user asks what changed, what's new, or wants a timeline of a competitor's moves — optionally since a given date. Input a domain or name. Returns { covered: false } with a CTA for companies not publicly tracked.

- 2026-10-07 `subscribe_to_newsletter` changed (description)
  - before: Sign the user up for IndustryLens's weekly intelligence-report newsletter. Use this only after the user explicitly asks to subscribe — never subscribe an email without their direct, informed consent. The source argument is recorded for attribution and defaults to 'mcp'.
  - after: Use ONLY after the user explicitly asks to subscribe to IndustryLens's weekly intelligence-report newsletter — never subscribe an email without their direct, informed consent. Signs the given email up and returns a confirmation. The source argument is recorded for attribution and defaults to 'mcp'.
- 2026-10-07 `get_comparison` changed (description)
  - before: Fetch the full structured body of a published competitor comparison by slug. Returns content_json (the structured breakdown: pricing, recent moves, positioning, displacement signals, when-to-choose, etc.) plus metadata.

Returns content_json (the structured breakdown: pricing, recent moves, positioning, displacement signals, when-to-choose, etc.) plus metadata.
- 2026-10-07 `list_comparisons` changed (description)
  - before: Browse published competitor-vs-competitor breakdowns. Optionally filter by a competitor name (matches either side). Each item has a slug usable with get_comparison. URLs follow https://industry-lens.com/compare/<slug>.
  - after: Use when the user wants to browse published competitor-vs-competitor breakdowns, or find one involving a specific competitor, rather than fetch one specific comparison by slug. Optionally filter by a competitor name (matches either side). Each item has a slug usable with get_comparison. URLs follow https://industry-lens.com/compare/<slug>.
- 2026-10-07 `get_report` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Fetch the full body of a published report by slug. Returns the report's structured fields plus content_html (the canonical body). pdf_url is currently empty for every report (PDF generation is disabled pipeline-side); do not construct or suggest a .pdf URL — there is no such route. Point users to the report's web URL, or to the site's gated PDF-download form if one exists.

## Tools (12)

- `find_competitors`: Use when the user asks who else competes in a company's market, or wants a peer/competitor set for a given company. Given a company domain or name, returns the other companies IndustryLens tracks in the same market. Returns { covered: false } for companies not publicly tracked.
- `get_comparison`: Use when the user wants the full head-to-head detail for one published comparison (after finding its slug via list_comparisons).

- `get_competitive_profile`: Use when the user asks who competes with a company, what a competitor recently did, or for a competitive overview of one or more domains. Input a company domain or name and get a privacy-safe profile: firmographics (business model, stage, HQ, plus `firmographics.funding_stage` / `last_raise` / `investors` / `employee_count` — these read `collected: false` with a plain 'not yet collected' note until that enrichment source is wired up, never a guess), recent strategic moves (the existence of a shift + a was→now summary, with the real analysis date), and links to published reports/comparisons. Returns { covered: false } for companies IndustryLens doesn't publicly track. Pass `companies` (up to 10 names/domains) instead of domain/name to look up several companies in one call — each gets its own result block, in the order given, each tagged with a `status` (account / public / not_covered / ambiguous).
