## Quality 79/100 (good)

### protocol: 88 (weight 25)

- pass `protocol.modern`: supports 2026-07-28 (server/discover)
- pass `protocol.stateless`: answers without a session
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- warn `protocol.list_ttl`: tools/list declares ttlMs 0, so clients re-fetch it on every use

### 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: 100 (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`: 5 of 5 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- pass `tools.directory_hints`: every tool declares readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,846 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`: 6 tool changes in 30 days
- fail `stability.rug_pull`: 1 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: 5, about 1,846 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 4eb661f40f55deb213735ff0f3cd25e6
- tools last changed: 2026-10-01T13:50:51.592Z

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-01 `boat-quiz` added
  - The preferred way to help someone figure out what type of boat to buy, especially on a client that can render interactive app content. Launches a guided, step-by-step quiz covering purpose, water type, crew size, budget, and more, then shows their top boat type matches with why each fits. Any preferences already known from the conversation can be passed in up front and will be pre-filled in the quiz, so having known preferences is a reason to use this tool, not a reason to skip it. Use recommend-boat-type instead only when the user explicitly asks for a quick, non-interactive text answer, or the current client cannot render interactive content.
- 2026-10-01 `recommend-boat-type` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Recommends the top 3 boat types for a buyer based on however many preferences are known (all fields optional): purpose, water type, crew size, activities, experience, propulsion, trailerability, budget, amenities, and maintenance comfort. Mirrors the interactive quiz at myboatguru.com/quiz.
  - after: Returns a quick, text-only boat type recommendation based on however many preferences are known (all fields optional). Use this only when the user explicitly asks for a fast, non-interactive answer, or the current client cannot render interactive content — in every other case, prefer boat-quiz instead, which covers the same recommendation through a guided, interactive experience that also lets the user adjust their answers. Having fully known preferences is not by itself a reason to use this tool over boat-quiz.

Use recommend-boat-type instead only when the user explicitly asks for a quick, non-interactive text answer, or the current client cannot render interactive content.
- `compare-boat-types`: Compare two boat types side by side: cost, best-for, pros/cons, and a short verdict.
- `get-boat-type-details`: Look up full details on one boat type: pros, cons, typical cost, size range, propulsion, and ownership tips.
- `get-gear-checklist`: Universal boat gear and safety checklist with estimated costs, grouped by priority (required, conditional, recommended, optional). Applies to any boat type.
- `recommend-boat-type`: Returns a quick, text-only boat type recommendation based on however many preferences are known (all fields optional). Use this only when the user explicitly asks for a fast, non-interactive answer, or the current client cannot render interactive content — in every other case, prefer boat-quiz instead, which covers the same recommendation through a guided, interactive experience that also lets the user adjust their answers.
