**An agent can connect on its own if it already holds `OCR_TOKEN`.** Remote endpoint behind a static API key or header. The registry never sees the value; the agent fills the placeholder.

## Quality 79/100 (good)

### 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: 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: estimate_cost (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); read_document (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint)
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 309 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 309 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 09b294ab63a256395f9e3e7dd93bc18e
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.pennyocr/ocr.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.pennyocr/ocr)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (2)

- `estimate_cost`: Free: return the page count and exact cost_usd to read a document URL with read_document, without running OCR. Use before reading large documents.
- `read_document`: Read a document (PDF or image) from a URL and return its contents as markdown (tables preserved) or plain text. Costs $0.00075 per page, billed to the PennyOCR account; the response includes the exact cost_usd and per-page citations. Use estimate_cost first for big documents. Supports page ranges and hard spend caps.
