## Quality 85/100 (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: 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`: 4 of 4 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: search_howto_pages (idempotentHint); list_analysis_families (idempotentHint); list_howto_pages (idempotentHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 605 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`: 2 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 605 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 05f7c3442feb5d82d632b68ceeb17d50
- tools last changed: 2026-09-26T03:36:18.047Z
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/dev.stepcode/stepcode.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/dev.stepcode/stepcode)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-09-26 `search_howto_pages` changed (description, inputSchema)
  - before: Filter the how-to index by analysis family, tool, vertical, and/or a case-insensitive text query against title + analysis name. All filters are optional and combine with AND; call with no arguments to get every page (same as list_howto_pages).
  - after: Filter the how-to index by analysis family, tool, vertical, and/or a case-insensitive text query against title, analysis name, intro, problem statement, and step operations (with practitioner-synonym coverage, e.g. attrition/turnover/churn, logistic regression/classifier, power bi/dax, diversity/simpson/blau). All filters are optional and combine with AND; call with no arguments to get every page (same as list_howto_pages).
- 2026-09-25 `get_membership_offer` removed
  - Return this front's Bicycle Cooperative membership offer with the People Analytics chapter substituted, all five options (membership and rent), and the join URL. Read-only; no payment.

## Tools (4)

- `get_howto_page`: Get the full howto/v2 contract for one page by slug (from list_howto_pages /  search_howto_pages): intro, per-step teach/intent/code, divergence notes, cross-tool links, and grounding.
- `list_analysis_families`: List the analysis families on stepcode.dev (e.g. flight-risk, diversity-index-EBIT-impact) with the tools each is shown in and how many pages exist for it.
- `list_howto_pages`: List every published how-to page on stepcode.dev — 36 analysis x tool cells (Excel, Google Sheets, R, Python, SQL, DAX/Power BI) with slug, title, analysis family, tool, vertical and whether the tool's approach diverges from the others.
- `search_howto_pages`: Filter the how-to index by analysis family, tool, vertical, and/or a case-insensitive text query against title, analysis name, intro, problem statement, and step operations (with practitioner-synonym coverage, e.g. attrition/turnover/churn, logistic regression/classifier, power bi/dax, diversity/simpson/blau). All filters are optional and combine with AND; call with no arguments to get every page (same as list_howto_pages).
