## Trust

- hygiene: 80
- liveness: 99
- freshness: 85
- provenance: 55
- drivers: +dns-namespace +website +reachable +uptime-98% ~updated-42d-ago -no-repository
- Derived from observable signals (official registry feed and our own credential-free probes); no code audit performed.

## Quality 89/100 (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 carries no ttlMs, so clients re-fetch it

### 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`: 6 of 6 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: compare_districts (destructiveHint, idempotentHint); find_indicator (destructiveHint, idempotentHint); get_district (destructiveHint, idempotentHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,288 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: 6, about 1,288 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: f81b4794c943b4bd0e3376724a73fd80
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/com.spatialindia/spatial-india.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/com.spatialindia/spatial-india)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (6)

- `build_map_link`: Use to end an answer with a link the user can open — after any ranking, comparison or district lookup, and whenever they ask to see, map or visualise something. Returns a spatialindia.com/app URL showing exactly those indicators. One indicator draws a choropleth, two draw a bivariate map; a third cannot be expressed in a link and is reported back as dropped.
- `compare_districts`: Use when the question names two or more places and asks how they differ — "compare Pune and Nagpur on literacy and bank credit". One call, not one get_district per district. Write an ambiguous name as "Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh".
- `find_indicator`: Use FIRST, before any other tool, whenever a question names a subject rather than an indicator id — "stunting", "land inequality", "bank credit". Returns matching indicator ids with their unit, source, vintage, caveat and district coverage. Every other tool needs an id from here; ids are not guessable and inventing one fails.
- `get_district`: Use when the question is about one named place — "tell me about Bilaspur", "what is Pune's literacy rate". Resolves an Indian district name, including common alternative spellings, to its objectid and returns its values. Four district names are shared by two states, so if the name is ambiguous this returns every match with its state and no data: ask the user which one, then call again with `state`.
- `get_methodology`: Use whenever the answer will state a number to a user, and always when asked how a figure was produced, how old it is, or whether it can be trusted. Returns the source, vintage, definition, caveat, estimation method, licence attribution and the citation string for one indicator, or for the dataset as a whole when no indicator is given. Do not describe a number as measured or estimated without checking here — each district carries its own `estimated` flag.
- `rank_districts`: Use for best/worst/highest/lowest questions over many districts — "worst 20 districts for child stunting in Uttar Pradesh". Check the indicator's `polarity` in the result before calling a tail "worst": for a higher-worse indicator the worst districts are `order: "desc"`, for higher-better they are `order: "asc"`. Districts the source never covered sort last in both directions and are never presented as an extreme.
