**An agent can connect after a one-time OAuth consent by a human.** Remote endpoint behind OAuth 2. Tokens stay with the agent; the registry only exposes the authorization metadata.

- hygiene: 80
- liveness: 98
- freshness: 100

## Quality 82/100 (good)

### protocol: n/a (weight 25)

- n/a `protocol.modern`, `protocol.stateless`, `protocol.transport`, `protocol.list_ttl`: no remote answered a protocol handshake (not probed yet, unreachable, or local-only)

### authorization: 83 (weight 15)

- pass `auth.prm`: Protected Resource Metadata (RFC 9728) published
- pass `auth.as_metadata`: authorization server metadata reachable
- warn `auth.cimd`: only Dynamic Client Registration, deprecated in 2026-07-28 in favour of CIMD
- 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: get_youtube_subtitles (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); check_credits (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint)
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 237 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: 2, about 237 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 95262b89e4d2309a0badbf65543148a8
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.kliptools/youtube-subtitles.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.kliptools/youtube-subtitles)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.
