## Quality 83/100 (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: 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: list_providers (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); cheapest_models (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_model_pricing (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 554 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: 100 (weight 15)

- pass `deps.known_vulns`: no known advisory in 1 resolved packages
- n/a `deps.mcp_sdk_version`: the official MCP SDK is not in the dependency graph
- pass `deps.resolvable`: @modelpricewatch/mcp@1.0.0 resolved: 1 packages

- tools: 4, about 554 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: f057da52065a2427a0ab628c3067c6b6
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.modelpricewatch/mcp.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.modelpricewatch/mcp)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (4)

- `cheapest_models`: Find the cheapest current models, ranked by input price, output price, or a blended cost. The generic ranking covers generative text models (embeddings, OCR and realtime models are excluded — they price different work); pass category to rank a specific pool instead, e.g. 'embedding'. Use to answer 'what is the cheapest model for <use case>'.
- `get_model_pricing`: Get full pricing and capability details for one model by its id (from search_models). Returns input/output/cached price per 1M tokens, blended cost, context window, modality, release date, and the modelpricewatch.com page URL.
- `list_providers`: List all tracked AI model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.) with a short description and their pricing page.
- `search_models`: Search the live LLM pricing database by model name, provider, or id. Returns matching models with current input/output prices (USD per 1M tokens), context window, modality, and category. Use this to answer 'how much does <model> cost' or 'what models does <provider> offer'.
