## Quality 90/100 (new)

### 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: 93 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- warn `tools.description_length`: 1 tools have descriptions over 1,024 characters, which crowds the context
- pass `tools.schemas`: every tool has an object input schema
- pass `tools.annotations`: 8 of 8 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- pass `tools.directory_hints`: every tool declares readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 2,096 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `stability.changes`, `stability.rug_pull`: tool history recorded for 3 of the 7 days needed

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: no npm or PyPI package

- tools: 8, about 2,096 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 5db494b0c4f7d82a9c09fdd578adc6c4
- tools last changed: 2026-10-20T08:38:28.027Z

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-20 `search_businesses` changed (description, outputSchema)
  - before: Search the public Ready4Bots index. Free text matches name, industry, tags, product keywords, category, description, and domain, including synonyms such as shoes/sneakers, coffee/espresso, and hotel/lodging. Results are ranked by that relevance, then by published R-level. Filter by category (E-commerce, SaaS, or an industry id such as fashion-shoes), country, exact level (R0–R3 from a published test, R4 only for the certified seal), minimum level, action (search, book, or order), audience (customer, seller, or dev), and certified. The response includes totalIndexed, the size of the catalog, and indexSource. Each result includes level, status, certified, industry, channel, actions, audience, sourceUrl, and ready4botsUrl. A level is present only when a test recorded one. Unverified listings are never certified. The tool waits for the live providers table. indexSource is postgres when that read finishes, including when it returns no public row. indexSource is snapshot, with fallbackReason, only when the database cannot be reached. get_business reads the same catalog.
