## Quality 85/100 (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: 86 (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
- pass `tools.annotations`: 16 of 16 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: list_plans (destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); check_email_blacklist (destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); check_agent_readiness (destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 2,003 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: 16, about 2,003 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 88cf6f6ab0ffa23d09eb18e189e5d3db
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.merlonix/monitoring.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.merlonix/monitoring)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (16)

- `acknowledge_alert`: Acknowledge one of YOUR alerts by its alert id (from list_my_alerts) — marks it as seen/being-handled without resolving it. Optionally attach a note. Requires an API key with write scope.
- `check_agent_readiness`: Score how ready a website is for AI agents and answer engines. Fetches /llms.txt, /robots.txt, and the homepage and returns a letter grade with per-signal findings. No browser rendering or LLM call — deterministic HTTP/parse.
- `check_broken_links`: Scan one web page for dead links (4xx/5xx/unreachable) and mixed content (http subresources on an https page). Returns each link with its status. Single-page scan, not a crawl — pass the exact page URL. Rate-limited to a few scans per minute, so batch calls will be throttled.
- `check_domain_health`: Check the live SSL/TLS certificate (validity + expiry + issuer), DNS records (A/AAAA/MX/NS resolution), and domain-registration (RDAP) expiry of any public hostname. Each leg fails soft and is reported independently.
- `check_email_blacklist`: Check whether a domain or IP is listed on the major DNS blocklists (DNSBLs) that mail providers consult before accepting mail — the usual reason legitimate mail silently lands in spam. Returns each zone checked, whether it is listed, and the return code. Deterministic DNS lookups, no LLM.
- `check_mcp_health`: Health-check a live MCP (Model Context Protocol) server by URL: performs a real JSON-RPC initialize handshake, then tools/list, and returns whether it is up/degraded/down, its protocol version, server name/version, the callable tool/resource/prompt inventory, transport, and handshake latency. Deterministic — no LLM. Use it to verify your own MCP server is alive and spec-compliant.
- `create_asset`: Start monitoring a new asset (website/domain) in YOUR Merlonix account. Provide a hostname and asset_type; optionally a label and which checks to enable. Returns the created asset. Requires an API key with write scope. Subject to your plan asset quota (a full or non-paying plan returns an error).
- `delete_asset`: STOP monitoring one of YOUR assets and remove it, by its asset id (from list_my_assets). This is irreversible — its check history goes too. Requires an API key with write scope.
- `get_asset_checks`: Get the latest check results (SSL, DNS, uptime, heartbeat, port) for ONE of your monitored assets, by its asset id (from list_my_assets). Requires an API key.
- `get_vendor_status`: Get the current status plus 30-day status history of one monitored vendor by slug (e.g. "cloudflare"). Use list_vendor_status to discover valid slugs.
- `list_my_alerts`: List recent alerts across YOUR monitored assets (SSL changes, downtime, DNS drift, vendor incidents, etc.) with their severity and lifecycle status. Requires an API key.
- `list_my_assets`: List the monitored assets (websites/domains) in YOUR Merlonix account. Returns each asset id, hostname, type, and monitoring status. Requires an API key (Authorization: Bearer mk_… from app.merlonix.com → Settings → API keys).
- `list_plans`: List Merlonix subscription plans and pricing (Starter, Team, Agency, Compliance) with their monitoring limits.
- `list_vendor_status`: List the current operational status and recent incidents of every third-party vendor Merlonix monitors (e.g. Cloudflare, GitHub, Stripe). Returns each vendor's slug, current status, and 24h incident count.
- `resolve_alert`: Resolve one of YOUR alerts by its alert id (from list_my_alerts) — closes it. Optionally set resolution ("fixed" | "false_positive" | "wontfix") and a note. Requires an API key with write scope.
- `update_asset`: Update one of YOUR monitored assets by its asset id (from list_my_assets): relabel it or toggle which checks run. Returns the updated asset. Requires an API key with write scope.
