## 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: find_sunny_destinations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_destination_climate (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); compare_destinations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint)
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 715 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`: 1 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: 3, about 715 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 92ded83c031ae77b61dbbd34cc62eca9

- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-11 `find_sunny_destinations` changed (description)
  - before: Ranked answer to "where is it sunny (and warm) in <month>?" — destinations sorted by that month's 0–100 Sunshine Score (long-term climate normals). Filter by continent or country, minimum daytime temperature, population, swimmable sea (≥21°C), or a ceiling on the midday UV index. Every result carries that month's temperatures, rain, midday UV (WHO scale) and sea temperature, plus a citable destinationsmap.com URL.
  - after: Ranked answer to "where is it sunny (and warm) in <month>?" — destinations sorted by that month's 0–100 Sunshine Score (long-term climate normals). Filter by continent or country, minimum daytime temperature, population, swimmable sea (≥21°C), or a ceiling on the midday UV index. Every result carries that month's temperatures, rain, midday UV (WHO scale) and sea temperature, plus a citable sunshineatlas.com URL.
