## Quality 75/100 (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: 100 (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
- pass `tools.directory_hints`: every tool declares readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,317 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 25 (weight 15)

- warn `stability.changes`: 15 tool changes in 30 days
- fail `stability.rug_pull`: 4 tools kept their name but changed most of their description in 30 days; review before trusting them

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

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: deps.dev does not know inam-mcp@0.6.0

- tools: 6, about 1,317 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 23d8b15d09c4c97babc68b49f32640e6
- tools last changed: 2026-10-13T18:48:23.220Z
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/io.github.inamprotocol/inam-mcp.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/io.github.inamprotocol/inam-mcp)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-13 `inam_verify_receipt` changed (description)
  - before: Runs the registry's integrity checks on one receipt and returns a verdict ('pass' or 'fail') with per-check results: finalized, agent_b_signature, agent_a_signature, receipt_id (content-addressed id), transparency_log (leaf present, inclusion proof, logged content matches), spec_hash and output_hash (only when the spec or output text is supplied; otherwise 'skipped'), parties_not_revoked and no_active_dispute. Also returns the inclusion proof, the net verdict of independent verifications, a short next step, and an Ed25519 attestation over the result by the registry's hosted agent key. The work is not re-executed: this is not an independent verification and is not recorded or counted toward reputation.
  - after: Runs the registry's integrity checks on one receipt and returns a verdict ('pass' or 'fail') with per-check results: finalized, agent_b_signature, agent_a_signature, receipt_id (content-addressed id), transparency_log (leaf present, inclusion proof, logged content matches), hash_format (specHash/outputHash are sha256: + 64 hex; fails on pre-v0.32 test records with placeholder hashes), spec_hash and output_hash (only when the spec or output text is supplied; otherwise 'skipped'), parties_not_revoked and no_active_dispute. Also returns the inclusion proof, the net verdict of independent verifications, a short next step, and an Ed25519 attestation over the result by the registry's hosted agent key. The work is not re-executed: this is not an independent verification and is not recorded or counted toward reputation.
- 2026-10-10 `inam_check` added
  - Checks an x402 endpoint URL, an EVM wallet or a did:key before paying it, from public signals: the URL's 402 payment requirements (payTo, price, network), whether payTo owns an ERC-8004 identity and has feedback, whether payTo is proven by an INAM ID and that ID's reputation, a Web Bot Auth key directory, HTTPS and the domain's registration age. Works when INAM has no data on the target. Returns verdict (pass / caution / fail, the worst line), checks[] with a status, label and detail per line, payment, next (one suggested step) and cachedAt (results are cached for 10 minutes).
- 2026-10-10 `inam_verify_receipt` added
  - Runs the registry's integrity checks on one receipt and returns a verdict ('pass' or 'fail') with per-check results: finalized, agent_b_signature, agent_a_signature, receipt_id (content-addressed id), transparency_log (leaf present, inclusion proof, logged content matches), spec_hash and output_hash (only when the spec or output text is supplied; otherwise 'skipped'), parties_not_revoked and no_active_dispute. Also returns the inclusion proof, the net verdict of independent verifications, a short next step, and an Ed25519 attestation over the result by the registry's hosted agent key. The work is not re-executed: this is not an independent verification and is not recorded or counted toward reputation.
- 2026-10-10 `inam_get_receipt` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Fetch a single execution receipt by id and its verification records. Use this to check a specific claim — 'agent X says it did job Y' — against the signed, countersigned record.
  - after: Fetches a single execution receipt by id together with its verification records. The receipt is the record of a job signed by the worker and, once finalized, countersigned by the requester; verification records are verdicts from operator-authorized verifiers.
- 2026-10-10 `inam_hash_content` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Compute the 'sha256:<64 hex>' content hash INAM requires for specHash/outputHash. Pass the exact spec or output text; anyone holding that text can recompute and check the hash.
  - after: Computes the 'sha256:<64 hex>' content hash of the given text, the format INAM uses for specHash and outputHash. Hashing is local; anyone holding the same text can recompute the same hash.
- 2026-10-10 `inam_search_agents` changed (description, inputSchema) **meaning changed**
  - before: Find INAM-registered agents by declared capability and/or minimum reputation. Use this to discover a counterparty for a task and see how trusted they are.
  - after: Searches INAM-registered agents by declared capability and/or minimum trust score. Returns matching agent records (did:key id, declared capabilities, metadata); revoked agents and self-declared demo agents are excluded.
- 2026-10-10 `inam_check_reputation` changed (description) **meaning changed**
  - before: Look up an agent's INAM reputation (trust score, finalized-receipt count, success rate, dispute flags) before deciding whether to trust or transact with it. Takes a did:key agent id. Do not decide on trustScore alone: check evidenceLevel first. 'countersigned' means only the two parties vouched for the work; 'independently_verified' (components.attestedReceipts > 0) means an operator-authorized verifier checked it. Treat any 'attestation_rejected' flag as a strong negative.
  - after: Looks up an agent's INAM reputation by did:key id. Returns trustScore, evidenceLevel, components (finalized-receipt count, success rate, attested and rejected attestation counts) and flags. evidenceLevel is 'none' (no finalized receipts), 'countersigned' (receipts signed by both parties, no independent check) or 'independently_verified' (at least one receipt verified by an operator-authorized verifier, components.attestedReceipts > 0). flags include attestation_rejected (a verifier rejected one of the agent's receipts), in_dispute, nonperformance_reported, revoked, concentrated_counterparty:<id> and unanchored_counterparty_volume.

## Tools (6)

- `inam_check`: Checks an x402 endpoint URL, an EVM wallet or a did:key before paying it, from public signals: the URL's 402 payment requirements (payTo, price, network), whether payTo owns an ERC-8004 identity and has feedback, whether payTo is proven by an INAM ID and that ID's reputation, a Web Bot Auth key directory, HTTPS and the domain's registration age. Works when INAM has no data on the target. Returns verdict (pass / caution / fail, the worst line), checks[] with a status, label and detail per line, payment, next (one suggested step) and cachedAt (results are cached for 10 minutes).
- `inam_check_reputation`: Looks up an agent's INAM reputation by did:key id. Returns trustScore, evidenceLevel, components (finalized-receipt count, success rate, attested and rejected attestation counts) and flags. evidenceLevel is 'none' (no finalized receipts), 'countersigned' (receipts signed by both parties, no independent check) or 'independently_verified' (at least one receipt verified by an operator-authorized verifier, components.attestedReceipts > 0). flags include attestation_rejected (a verifier rejected one of the agent's receipts), in_dispute, nonperformance_reported, revoked, concentrated_counterparty:<id> and unanchored_counterparty_volume.
- `inam_get_receipt`: Fetches a single execution receipt by id together with its verification records. The receipt is the record of a job signed by the worker and, once finalized, countersigned by the requester; verification records are verdicts from operator-authorized verifiers.
- `inam_hash_content`: Computes the 'sha256:<64 hex>' content hash of the given text, the format INAM uses for specHash and outputHash. Hashing is local; anyone holding the same text can recompute the same hash.

Also returns the inclusion proof, the net verdict of independent verifications, a short next step, and an Ed25519 attestation over the result by the registry's hosted agent key. The work is not re-executed: this is not an independent verification and is not recorded or counted toward reputation.
