## 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: get_server (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_groups (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); search_servers (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 517 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: 4, about 517 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 7a376d65ad7d3e1179c6cb65a81c4fbf
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/dev.mcpnav/directory.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/dev.mcpnav/directory)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

_No tool definition changes recorded._

## Remotes

- https://mcp.mcpnav.dev/mcp (streamable-http, auth none, reachable true, uptime30d 0.9489796)

## Packages

_none_

## Tools (4)

- `get_connect_config`: Generate a ready-to-paste install snippet for one server's first safe remote endpoint or installable package, in the requested client's format. Mirrors mcpnav.dev's own server detail page Connect block exactly (same safety rules, same command/JSON shapes).
- `get_server`: Fetch the full mcpnav record for one server by its slug (from search_servers' results, e.g. "owner/repo"). Call get_connect_config next for a ready-to-paste install snippet.
- `list_groups`: List the category groups servers are organized into, each with its indexable server count.
- `search_servers`: Search the mcpnav directory of MCP servers by name/description keywords, optionally filtered to one category group. Matches are whole-word, case-insensitive, and require every query word to appear (AND); a match in the server's name ranks above a match only in its description. Call list_groups first if you want a valid `group` value.
